Master's Degree in Pelvic Floor Dysfunctions

Contents

The program consists of 7 subjects that are taught online, mainly theoretical, and 3 face-to-face subjects of a practical nature. All subjects, both virtual and face-to-face, are mandatory.

Specific skills

Learning Outcomes:

KT01: Describe the anatomy of the pelvic floor and the functional aspects in relation to anatomy (concept of functional anatomy)
KT02: Explain the pathophysiology of the different pelvic floor dysfunctions, their causes or risk factors as well as the epidemiological aspects
KT03: Describe the initial approach to pelvic floor dysfunctions (directed anamnesis, urogynecological examination, validated questionnaires)
KT04: Define the methodology regarding imaging tests and functional tests of interest in the diagnosis of pelvic floor pathology
KT05: Organize the different diagnostic and therapeutic strategies regarding each of the pelvic floor dysfunctions specifically
KT06: Explain preventive strategies and conservative treatment of pelvic floor dysfunctions
KT07: Define the different surgical techniques and their indications for each of the dysfunctions
KT08: Demonstrate the different diagnostic and therapeutic strategies towards the treatment of chronic pelvic pain and sexual dysfunctions

CT03: Integrate specialized pelvic floor ultrasound (2D/3D) in the initial approach to pelvic floor dysfunctions
CT04: Correctly interpret the anatomical-functional information obtained in complementary studies, applying it to clinical advice regarding therapeutic management
CT05: Devise a diagnostic-therapeutic plan based on an integral and multidisciplinary approach
CT06: Explain the surgical treatment alternatives and the possible short and long-term risks/effects
CT07: Validate basic surgical skills regarding pelvic floor pathology
CT08: Defend a critical reading of scientific publications
CT09: Devise research projects in the field of pelvic floor pathology
