Learning outcomes

MODULO DIAGNOSTICA E PROCEDURE CARDIOVASCOLARI INVASIVE Obiettivi formativi: Il modulo vede come obiettivo principale quello di incentivare la conoscenza delle nuove tecniche diagnostiche e terapeutiche applicate alle più frequenti patologie cardiovascolari di indole coronarico, vascolare periferico, valvolare e di insufficienza cardiaca acuta.

MODULO METODI E TECNICHE DI EMODINAMICA Obiettivi formativi: Il corso si propone di fornire una conoscenza teorico-pratica sulle principali metodiche diagnostico/terapeutiche utilizzate in cardiologia interventistica, mediante lezioni frontali, discussioni roundtable ed attività on-site direttamente nel laboratorio di emodinamica. Questo corso vuole inoltre fornire una panoramica sulle tecnologie di base ed evolute che potrebbero essere utilizzate o interpretate dal tecnico di fisiopatologia cardiocircolatoria che si trovi ad operare in emodinamica.
