Learn to deliver a baby and handle an infant. Master indirect heart massage and perform surgery. In Pavilion C1 "Family. Work. Longevity" at the International RUSSIA EXPO, both adults and children can feel like doctors.

The first thing that attracts attention are the realistic anatomical simulators of "mother" and "baby". Volunteers - young doctors and medical students - will teach how to assess the condition of the mother and child by devices, listen to the heartbeat of the fetus in the mother's belly.

One can also see a domestic resuscitation system that helps doctors save a baby born with pathology.

"There are a lot of sensors here that help doctors to take correct decisions. The most important is the heart rate. If necessary, we put a mask with oxygen on the baby and set the required parameters, our guests can try to save the baby's life on their own", - says resident neonatologist Irina Khabrova.

Here they also teach how to save adults. A special mannequin will help to hone skills, and the doctor will explain how to do CPR correctly. The specialist reminds that when saving someone else's life, you can't put your own at risk.

But the most exciting thing is the opportunity to perform the operation yourself. The simulator here is special - it is not a mannequin, but a screen with a computer simulation, on which you can see the internal organs. With the help of atraumatic medical devices, guests can perform a surgical intervention - the computer and the doctor will tell them what to do.

"It was interesting, but too nerve-wracking. I kept imagining how I would hit some vessel, bleeding would start, and the patient would "die". And the doctor kept calming me down. It's good that it's just a game, I can't imagine how doctors can withstand such stress", - said student Anna Dmitrieva, a guest of the exposition.
