Course Description

The intensive care unit (ICU) is an area specialized where skilled personnel and sophisticated equipment are readily available to manage critically ill patients. It is the most expensive, technologically advanced, and resource-intensive area of medical care. The current trend is that the anesthesia and internal medicine departments share the responsibility of managing these beds. There is a strong demand to increase the ICU beds in all hospitals due to the rise in the aging population and the increasing burden of diseases. However, there is a paucity of trained specialists in critical care medicine.

The Certificate in Critical Care Medicine is designed to address this acute shortage of trained professionals to manage critical care units. It will impart the knowledge and skills needed to provide critical care to patients admitted to the ICU.

In this course, you will learn: 

 ●  Functioning of the ICU
 ●  Skills required for resuscitation
 ●  Initial management of acutely ill patients
 ●  Investigations ordered in the ICU and their interpretation
 ●  To gain practical knowledge about the usage of fluids, blood products, and drugs in the ICU
 ●  To manage some common problems seen in the ICU, such as acid-base and electrolyte abnormalities

All the learning materials and assessments will be online. This course is CPD Accredited! Taking this course provides you with a certificate from the Official CPD Standards Office.

Learning complex medical concepts in the traditional didactic textbook and lecture format can be alienating for students. It prevents the opportunity to apply this knowledge clinically.

Certificate in Critical Care Medicine incorporates a Case-Based Learning Approach within the Medvarsity Learning Framework to address this gap in medical education. With this unique methodology, students consume relevant medical content while learning concepts through interactive case studies spread throughout the course. Thus, students are provided with relevant specialty-specific cases and a clear structure for precise diagnosis and customized treatment plans on a case-to-case basis.

We at Medvarsity, help every physician with the ability to fast-track their career and enable them to better serve the communities in which they practice. Join us and let us impact healthcare through education.
