Audiometry and Spirometry Course (university degree + 8 ECTS credits)

The course in audiometry and spirometry is a comprehensive program designed to respond to the demand for specialized professionals. Audiometry and spirometry are fundamental techniques in early detection and the management of problems related to ear and lungs, a demand that increases together with the prevalence of diseases such as COPD and hearing loss. The structure of the course covers from the foundations of acoustics and auditory and respiratory physiology to the use and calibration of the most modern equipment, such as audiometer and spirometers. In addition, the program includes learning techniques to perform audiometry and spirometry, as well as the proper interpretation of the results obtained, always focusing on diagnostic precision and excellence in communicating clinical results. Opting this course means accessing a higher and specialized education that will expand the diagnostic skills of the participants and will prepare them for a constantly evolving labor market. It is a program that stands out for its clinical relevance and impact on patient's well -being, being a successful choice for any professional who wishes to make a difference in the field of hearing and respiratory health.

- Understand basic principles of audiometry. - Understand the physiology of the human ear. - Identify audiometry equipment and their use. - Dominate audiometric elaboration techniques. - Analyze and interpret audiometric results. - Acquire introductory knowledge of spirometry.

When completing the course in audiometry and spirometry, those with prior university degree will be able to perform professionally in otolaryngological clinics, hospitals and audiological centers. You will learn how audiometry are performed, to interpret the operation of the auditory and respiratory apparatus, and administer spirometry tests, attending the diagnosis and monitoring of respiratory and hearing disorders, a fundamental ability in auditory and respiratory health care.

The course in audiometry and spirometry enables you to perform and understand hearing and lung function tests. You will learn from auditory and respiratory physiology to specialized equipment management. You will master the realization and interpretation of audiometry and spirometry, identifying normal and altered patterns for adequate diagnosis. You will develop practical skills in the manipulation of diagnostic tools and in the application of tests for various populations, including children, guaranteeing the quality and reliability of the results.

Aimed at health professionals such as general doctors, otolaryngologists, nursing staff, respiratory therapists, audiology technicians and occupational safety professionals, this course covers theory and practice in audiometry and spirometry, addressing from acoustics and physiology of the ear to the spirometric interpretation, equipment and functional respiratory tests. Ideal for those who seek to deepen the diagnosis and monitoring of auditory and pulmonary health.
