In clinical practice, the imprecise measurement and management of hypertension by Physicians and AYUSH practitioners have been attributed to numerous factors. Namely, the lack of training, poor adherence to recommendations, improper patient preparation, and inaccurate equipment to measure with. As a result, there have been calls to standardize the training of all healthcare professionals who regularly interact with patients suspected of having high blood pressure.
The “Certificate in Basics of Hypertension” is a “level up” program aimed at AYUSH practitioners who are increasingly interacting with individuals with underlying high blood pressure. The blended learning design of the course consists of multiple case presentations, lectures, and interactive elements that give you a clinical perspective to theory and consequently improve the clinical outcomes of your patients.
The Certificate in Basics of Hypertension course provides a comprehensive understanding of hypertension, including its causes, risk factors, diagnosis, and management.
The course covers core competencies, namely:
- Diagnostic screening & drug selection
- Nonpharmacological Interventions for Reducing Blood Pressure
- ACC/AHA/ESH/ESC based Guidelines
- Potentially dangerous forms of hypertension – Resistant hypertension, secondary hypertension & hypertensive crises
- Specific therapy in certain patient populations
Optimizing the prevention, recognition, and care of hypertension requires a paradigm shift of the AYUSH practices using scientific strategies known to control BP.
At Medvarsity, our aim is to provide every physician with the skills and knowledge necessary to accelerate their career and serve their communities more effectively.
Upon completing the course, you will receive a Certificate in Basics of Hypertension course certification, equipping you with enhanced career growth opportunities in healthcare.
