"Making life easier for the doctor and the patient": digital technologies in medicine were discussed at the RUSSIA EXPO
At the RUSSIA EXPO as part of the Sechenov. Pro Medical Education Forum, Russian Minister of Health Mikhail Murashko and Director of the Scientific Center for Neurology, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor Mikhail Piradov met with students in the "Dialogue on Equal Terms" format.
This year the forum brought together 110 outstanding participants of the Russian Student Olympiad "I am a Professional" — the best medical students of the country.
The participants touched upon a number of issues of medical industry development, and also talked to the Minister of Health of the Russian Federation Mikhail Murashko about digitalization in medicine.
"It is simply necessary to apply these technologies. They make life easier for the doctor and the patient. Those who have worked in medical organizations and have been in practice, know the amount of medical documentation a patient may have, for example, an outpatient card. And structuring this information, as well as offering treatment options based on this data, is something that is now available!" noted Mikhail Murashko.
During the communication with Mikhail Piradov, students were interested in his scientific path, as well as in his teachers.
"Naturally, something can never come from nothing, and if you have a teacher, he allows you to become a specialist in a particular field. I had two teachers. I consider Nikolai Viktorovich Vereshchagin, the director of the Research Institute of Neurology, to be one of them. When I was writing my PhD thesis, I decided that I would be bored to be just a neurologist, so I went to the intensive care unit, where I spent more than 30 years. I consider Lyubov Mikhailovna Popova, the founder of Russian neural resuscitation, to be my second teacher," said Mikhail Piradov.
