to Use modular hospitals and medical military aircraft for the defense Ministry of the Russian Federation to assist the sick COVID-19 proposed at a special meeting of the Department of medical Sciences neurosurgeon, General-major of medical service, academician of the RAS Yuri Sherbak.
the First thing Yuri summed up the sad results of conversion of hospitals under the communicable disease. According to him, as a result of such short-sighted actions goes down beds, reduced nursing staff. But most importantly, is sharply restricted the availability of emergency, planned, high-tech medical care that as a result leads to the growth of mortality and disability in patients with somatic pathology.
In this regard, serbuk proposed to call on the assistance of law enforcement agencies, including representatives of the military medical staffs in the operational group for combating coronavirus. He offered to deploy a special military hospital bases on the territory of large urban structures pavilion type: exhibition halls and pavilions. “Active construction within 4-6 weeks of modular hospitals of the Ministry of defence is justified,” said merbuk.
in addition, he made a proposal to the commander in chief, the President of Russia, asking for direction in a major Maritime city of a special hospital ships of the Navy, such as “Yenisei”, “Ob”, “Irtysh”. These floating naval hospitals, according to major-General, have all the necessary equipment for the treatment of infectious patients. For example, on one such ship already has 100 hospital beds, clinic, dispensary, pharmacy… But most importantly: on such ships have a professional team of military physicians.
All of the above measures, according to Yuri Darbuka, greatly expand the capabilities of base hospital and will reduce the evacuation of patients to other health facilities, without passing the infection beyond a single medical database.
Touched sherbok and very important question of the protection of life and health doctors. “The workload per physician in Saint Petersburg is now 5 patients with infection and projected growth to 20-25 patients. On the last day of the 27 who died from the disease, were 9 doctors.” As measures of support for these heroic people academician urged to increase the financial incentives of the medical staff are the most scarce specialties and to create a temporary financial assistance Fund of men in white coats.
