Course Description

Asienta las bases de las prácticas en la microbiología


Este curso te enseña todos los conceptos básicos de la microbiología. Desarrolla una base sólida para futuros estudios y prácticas en el campo de la microbiología aprendiendo a definir los microbios, los antimicrobianos y los antibióticos. Adéntrate con confianza en todos los temas, nombres, principios y procesos básicos de la microbiología.


Al finalizar el curso, no solo tendrás una comprensión segura de la clasificación, estructura y funciones de los microbios, sino que también estarás familiarizado con su identificación en el laboratorio y los sitios comunes de infección.


Conoce los conceptos de optimización de antimicrobianos y resistencia a los antimicrobianos (RAM)


En este curso, aprenderás a definir la resistencia a los antimicrobianos, sus mecanismos, impulsores y corresistencia. Aprende cómo actúan los microbios y los antimicrobianos, y cómo se produce la resistencia a los antimicrobianos (RAM).


Conoce los conceptos básicos de las «bacterias superresistentes» y analiza los resultados de las pruebas de susceptibilidad antimicrobiana (AST) o antibiogramas, incluidos sus diferentes puntos de ruptura, puntos de corte y su aplicación en el contexto clínico.


Aprende las técnicas antimicrobianas de laboratorio


Descifra cómo tomar muestras y especímenes para detectar microbios, así como los métodos para estudiar la susceptibilidad a los antimicrobianos en el laboratorio.


Aprende a comparar sustancias bactericidas y bacteriostáticas, observa cómo se mueven por el cuerpo mediante el estudio de modelos PK/PD (farmacocinéticos/farmacodinámicos) y aprende cómo aumentar la eficacia de los antimicrobianos en función de los resultados.


Este curso está destinado a los profesionales sanitarios, personal de laboratorio, personal comercial de antiinfecciosos, investigadores, estudiantes u otros en formación.


El curso está dirigido a personas con conocimientos básicos de microbiología, pero este no es un requisito previo.
