William Stone

In January 2021, reporting meetings were held in 21 departments in the State Medical Institution "Sanatorium "Krasivo" in strict compliance with the requirements of Rospotrebnadzor: social distance among those present and the implementation of the mask regime. Such collective meetings keep each employee in good shape and strengthen the team spirit. 536 employees united by one strategic development goal: "Obtaining a stable income to ensure effective operation" of the sanatorium summed up the past year. At the meetings, reports were made: the heads of structural divisions, the chairman of the trade union committee, the economist, the director of the health resort Cherkashina Galina Dmitrievna headed the reporting work in the teams. The financial and economic indicators of the sanatorium for the past year were announced. The amount of money earned in 2020 for the provision of spa and related services allowed us to ensure the implementation of the main performance indicators and amounted to 330 million rubles. rub, which is 17.5% less than last year, this difference is due to the fact that the sanatorium was idle for three months under the decree of the Governor of the Belgorod region "On measures to prevent the import and spread of a new coronavirus infection in the Belgorod region".

Despite the difficulties encountered in 2021, the administration of the institution was able to minimize the objectively incurred losses. Thus, fixed assets were purchased in the amount of 10.8 million rubles, including medical equipment for 3.6 million rubles. Labor costs amounted to 201 million rubles. The average accrued salary was 25,570 rubles, an increase of 8.2%. The obligations to pay taxes to all levels of budgets and extra-budgetary funds were fulfilled in full in the amount of 82 million rubles.

The organization of the reporting meeting in our workforce is necessary not only for the report of work, but also for the motivation and emotional charge of employees for new achievements in production. Social and labor relations in the sanatorium are regulated by a collective agreement, according to which a number of obligations related to both the provision and creation of normal working conditions, and the provision of many benefits and guarantees. According to the Collective Agreement, the extended package of benefits is performed stably as follows:

  • parents with three or more minor children are provided with financial assistance and paid additional days off,
  • at the birth of twins – 50 thousand rubles,
  • at the birth of the third child-100 thousand rubles.

In our team in this reporting period, two families met newborns for the third time: the Moseyevs, the Kotlyars, and the Lomakins for the fourth time. With this enthusiastic event, the director Galina Dmitrievna Cherkashina, to the applause of the staff, congratulated the mothers at the meetings in the departments: canteen, administrative and managerial staff, physiotherapy and handed each of them 100 thousand rubles.

During the meeting, employees were awarded certificates in the following categories:

"For loyalty to the sanatorium", "For perseverance and perseverance", "Jack of all Trades", "The most reliable and responsible", "For ensuring a high level of public safety" and their 12! Eighty-three people were awarded certificates and each of them was awarded a monetary reward in the amount of two thousand rubles as a reward.

At the end of the meetings, Galina Dmitrievna analyzed the successes and problems faced by the team in the past year, focusing on the fact that they allow us to extract invaluable experience that will be useful to us all in the future. I thanked every department, every employee for their active and conscientious work, for their high-quality and timely work. The team aimed to fulfill the main tasks facing us: to improve the quality of medical care provided to patients and vacationers of the sanatorium, introducing lean production and quality management.

World patient safety day

Patient Safety is a fundamental principle of medical care.

Each type, form and condition of medical care is accompanied by certain risks for patients.

Undesirable events in the course of medical activities can occur as a result of any medical interventions, even if they are performed correctly (regardless of whether they are diagnostic, therapeutic or rehabilitative).

improving patient safety requires comprehensive solutions within the healthcare system -a wide range of measures to improve the organization of activities, including infection control, safe use of medicines and medical devices, safe clinical practice and safe conditions for care.

Safety of medical activity is the absence of preventable harm, risks of its occurrence and(or) the degree of reduction of permissible harm to the life and health of citizens, medical and pharmaceutical workers, and the environment when performing medical activities.

At the same time, an important component is not only the safety of patients, but also the safety of medical workers. This is particularly important when organizing medical care in the context of a pandemic, as a guarantee of stable and effective work of medical organizations.

Everyone strives to provide quality and safe medical care,and yet, according to the world health organization, who:

• undesirable events caused by unsafe medical care are one of the top 10 causes of death and disability worldwide;

• harm caused by a number of undesirable events can be prevented in almost 50% of cases;

* worldwide, 4 out of 10 patients are harmed in primary and outpatient care;

• non-compliance with safety rules during surgical care is the cause of complications in almost 25% of patients;

• in the Organization for economic cooperation and development (OECD) member countries, 15% of all hospital costs and workloads are a direct result of undesirable events.

The results of Roszdravnadzor inspections also indicate problems in ensuring the safety of medical care provided.

So, in 2019, within the framework of state control of quality and safety of medical activities conducted 5895 inspections, during which revealed 3064 cases of violation of rights of citizens in the field of health, 1998 violations of orders of medical care, 1952 violations of orders for medical examinations, inspections and examinations, 143 violations of the organization and implementation of departmental and 2320 violations of the organization and implementation of internal control of the quality and safety of medical activities.

Recognizing patient safety as a key health priority,the world health Assembly, at its 72nd session, adopted resolution WHA72.6 "Global action for patient safety"on may 25, 2019, and declared September 17 as world patient safety day.

the goal of world patient safety day is to raise global awareness of patient safety and encourage international solidarity in actions aimed at improving patient safety and reducing harm to patients around the world, both the professional community, patients themselves, their relatives, and various organizations representing the interests of patients.

on September 17, 2020, the Ministry of health of the Russian Federation, together with Roszdravnadzor and in cooperation with the who representative office in Russia, planned events dedicated to the world patient safety day.

Key message of this year's world patient safety day: "Speak out in support of health workers 'safety!"

ensuring the maximum level of health security is an urgent task on a national scale, which requires the joint efforts of all stakeholders, including state, departmental, and public (including patient)organizations.

As part of the world patient safety day in 2020 in the Russian Federation, it is planned to:

• holding the all-Russian Olympiad on safety in healthcare - to identify the level of competence in various areas of ensuring the safety of medical activities;

• interactive voting for patients and medical professionals on current issues of patient safety, the purpose of which is to analyze awareness of priority issues related to safety in receiving and providing medical care;

Prevention of myocardial infarction

"There are no wrinkles on the heart, but only scars"

(Sidonia Gabrielle Colette)

Myocardial Infarction - is a cardiovascular disaster that leads to the death of any part of the heart muscle. Death (necrosis) of part of the myocardium occurs as a result of acute cessation of blood supply and, accordingly, oxygen starvation of the heart tissue. "Infarctus" - in Latin means "stuffed, stuffed, stuffed". What kind of filling are we talking about? This is a blood clot that accidentally broke off from the wall of a large vessel or an atherosclerotic plaque that clogged the lumen of the coronary artery (the artery that supplies blood to the heart muscle). Myocardial necrosis - the process is not reversible, a scar is subsequently formed at the site of damage. This leads to the fact that the heart will never be able to perform its function at the same level.

Myocardial Infarction life-threatening condition. According to world statistics, the death rate at the pre-hospital stage is at least 50%, that is, the disease proceeds so quickly that every second patient dies before the arrival of doctors. Complications are also very dangerous, both early and late, and they account for another 30% of deaths.

According to who statistics, mortality due to cardiovascular diseases is in the first place among all other causes. Among them, myocardial infarction takes the first place, it is the cause of death in 4.2 million people every year – this is 47% of the total death statistics. Men of working age from 35 to 50 years are 50 times more likely to have a heart attack than women who have a peak incidence during the menopause, after fifty years. However, "female heart attacks" are more likely to end in death 53% versus 43% of "male heart attacks".

It is Extremely important to form a lifestyle so as to minimize the risk of myocardial infarction. It is important to know that there are risk factors that we cannot influence,such as male gender,old age, heredity (close relatives have already suffered a stroke or myocardial infarction). However, there are factors that can and should be influenced by changing your lifestyle and following all your doctor's recommendations. These risk factors include Smoking, overweight, high blood pressure, high blood sugar and cholesterol levels,hypodynamia, and alcohol abuse.

In the first place in the prevention of cardiovascular disasters are regular and reasonable aerobic physical training, which gradually leads to the opening and formation of additional small vessels that improve blood supply to the heart muscle. In a significant number of cases, this will avoid the risk of developing a myocardial infarction, improve the tolerance of physical activity, and thus improve the quality of life of a person. The load should be training, it is individual for each person, and it can be determined with the help of a specialist who can help find out individual resistance to physical exertion. Physical training should be regular and systematic

It Should be understood that people who smoke have a myocardial infarction about 10 years earlier than non-smokers. Unfortunately, passive smokers also have twice the risk of dying from heart disease than other people. In people who smoke, blood density increases, platelets more easily form clots and blood clots, inflammatory processes in the arteries are provoked, the inner layer of the arteries is damaged, thereby accelerating the formation of atherosclerotic plaques on the walls of the arteries, as well as reducing the strength of plaques already available. Arterial vessels, "feeders" of organs, in smokers narrow, their walls become less malleable, the movement of blood in them slows down. It is also proven that the heart muscle itself is affected in smokers. One cigarette smoked increases the heart rate by 8-10 beats per minute, and yet it is proven that it is necessary to reduce the heart rate to the desired limits, which doctors achieve by taking certain medications.

It is Extremely important to monitor blood pressure figures, which should be less than 140/90 mmHg. At high blood pressure, the arteries gradually thicken, they are tense, prone to micro-damage, and cholesterol easily penetrates the walls of the arteries, forming atherosclerotic plaques. The heart muscle, which has already suffered, works with an additional load, overcoming the additional resistance of blood vessels, while getting tired and wearing out.

It is equally important to determine your blood sugar level. In diabetes, as a rule, initially there is an excess of insulin in the blood, and later an excess of glucose is added. The body's cells lose their ability to perceive insulin. Excess insulin and glucose contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. The arteries thicken, become less elastic, and the blood becomes more viscous, less fluid, and clots form faster, creating all the conditions for the development of a myocardial infarction.

In the absence of a healthy diet and inactivity, a person inexorably increases the volume of adipose tissue, which requires additional nutrition, creates an excessive load on the heart. Fat deposits raise the diaphragm, restrict the movement of the chest, interfere with the heart. An excess of carbohydrate and fatty foods in the food leads to increased insulin production, carbohydrates are converted into fats, and the amount of fatty acids increases, thereby creating all the conditions for the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. It is not surprising that obese people have a myocardial infarction 4 times more often. Obesity, diabetes, high levels of lipids in the blood all these are sometimes links in a "single chain reaction", which is usually based on an incorrect lifestyle.

Joining one risk factor for each new one increases the risk of myocardial infarction exponentially: four, nine, and so on. The output is not complicated...

Prevention of atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction consists largely in the normalization of cholesterol levels. But it is not enough to change the diet. We must remember that most of the cholesterol in our body does not come with food, but is formed in the liver. Therefore, the diet is not a panacea. In the 80-ies of the last century, new drugs appeared in medicine - statins. These products help lower cholesterol.

These drugs reduce the risk of heart attack not only by lowering cholesterol levels, but also by using additional mechanisms. For example, they reduce inflammation of the arteries, slow down atherosclerotic processes, strengthen the tires of the atherosclerotic plaque, and so on. You should not cancel any medications yourself without consulting your doctor. But only because a friend said "that it is harmful".

There is no Doubt that a favorable psychological state of a person is a necessary condition for success. Walking in the fresh air, contemplation of flowers and forests, healthy sleep will help to acquire a harmonious state. All this creates an excellent base for normalization of blood PRESSURE, strengthens the necessary skills for a healthy lifestyle.

Be healthy and remember, Your heart beats not only for You!

Stroke prevention

Stroke is an acute disorder of cerebral circulation, characterized by the appearance of neurological symptoms that persist for more than 24 hours or lead to the death of the patient at an earlier date.

Stroke ranks third in the mortality rate of the population.

There are 2 types of stroke - ischemic and hemorrhagic.

The cause of ischemic stroke is thrombus formation, clots of blood substances enter the vessels of the brain and cause clogging. The cause of hemorrhagic stroke in 80% of cases is arterial hypertension.

Stroke is easier to prevent than to deal with complications and death, and for this it is necessary to fight risk factors:

  1. Arterial hypertension is the most significant risk factor for stroke. You should try to reach a blood pressure level below 140/90 mm Hg. In patients with diabetes or renal insufficiency - below 130/90 mm Hg. Therapy is selected by a general practitioner, cardiologist. It is necessary to constantly take antihypertensive therapy and regularly monitor blood pressure. It is better to keep a diary, then it will be easier for you and your doctor to adjust the dose of the drug.
  2. Atrial fibrillation is a risk factor for stroke and is the most common rhythm disorder hearts. For atrial fibrillation, aspirin or oral anticoagulants are recommended to prevent stroke.
  3. Diabetes mellitus - increases the risk of stroke by 1.5 times. Strict control of blood sugar, adherence to diet, in combination with antihyperglycemic drugs or insulin is necessary.
  4. Lipid disorders - statin use reduces the risk of stroke by 24%. Currently, statins are recommended for all patients with coronary artery disease and dyslipidemia.
  5. Smoking - increases the risk of stroke by 1.5-2 times. Stopping smoking leads to a decrease in the risk of stroke after 2-4 years. Now there is an active promotion of a healthy lifestyle and a life without smoking. Cigarette packs are printed with horrifying pictures, BUT don't forget about secondhand smoke. One hour in a smoky room is equal to smoking 10 cigarettes. And one hour of hookah smoking is equal to smoking 100 cigarettes. It's never too late to quit smoking, think about it!
  6. Alcohol abuse - alcohol restriction has been proven to reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 3 and 2 mm Hg, respectively. A complete rejection of alcohol in a month by 7.3 / 6.5 mm Hg.
  7. Fight obesity - Eat a healthy, balanced diet. It has been proven that abdominal obesity is considered the most dangerous. Avoid drastic weight loss. Proper nutrition should be a way of life.
  8. Physical inactivity - regular exercise reduces the risk of stroke. The loads should be dynamic (swimming, walking, jogging). Exercise should be started with a minimum load, gradually increasing it. The regularity of classes and the instructor's control are important, at least in the first 5-10 classes. When increasing the load, you should pay attention to health, sleep, appetite, body weight.
  9. Get medical check-ups annually - don't self-medicate!

In prevention, medical literacy of the population is important, because danger often lies in wait for us when we are at home, at work or just walking down the street.

What to look out for if a stroke is suspected?

There is a simple text FACE-HAND-SPEECH.

If:

  • The patient cannot smile. The corner of the mouth is down.
  • The patient cannot raise two hands
  • The patient cannot pronounce his name

Call an ambulance urgently, it is important to hospitalize the patient in the first 3-4 hours after the onset of stroke symptoms.
