Modality: In-person – UC Extension Center, Chile
DESCRIPTION
Hemostasis disorders, including those that manifest with bleeding as well as thrombosis, are highly prevalent in the population and affect both adults and children. The rapid development in both diagnosis and management of these conditions makes updating this knowledge extremely relevant. For this reason, this course has been held periodically, and this year marks its tenth edition.
The course is organized around keynote lectures by renowned international and national experts, clinical case workshops, and symposia.
This year, the course will be held in person at the Extension Center of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, and all presentations are expected to be delivered in Spanish.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Health professionals involved in the study and management of hemostasis disorders, including hematologists, internists, pediatricians, and other health professionals (medical technologists, nurses), accredited residents, undergraduate medical students, and medical technology students.
