Description
General Objective
To provide theoretical competencies that can be applied to practice in order to comprehensively manage the airway in adult and pediatric patients with chronic and acute respiratory pathologies that put their lives at risk, oriented to improve their prognosis and ultimately their quality of life.
Addressed to:
Doctors, Physiotherapists, Nurses, Emergency Medical Technologists/Licensed Emergency Medical Technologists, final year students of these careers and other health professionals linked to the health area.
