Despite the ongoing reforms, the staff shortage in the healthcare system and the loss of medical personnel in the field still negatively affect the quality of medical care. The article presents the results of monitoring the opinions of future resident physicians of the current organization and the quality of medical care and their readiness for professional activity, as well as their views to the healthcare system needs. It has been established that every third graduate was not ready for the profession before entering the residency, 36.7% considered their future profession to be nonprestigious, only half of the residents (50.3%) considered the medical profession to be highly paid, and personal aptitude (53%) and abilities (40%) were considered the leading factors in choosing the profession. The residents evaluated the quality of medical care at a high level only in a clinical setting (69.7%), and they do not plan to work in regional health care but prefer to stay in Moscow (60.3%). To preserve the healthcare system human resources, it is advisable to develop a program for managing risk factors for the professional environment, starting with training of personnel at the institute of higher education.

Epileptic status is one of the urgent conditions in neurology that requires clear and urgent measures at any stage of medical care. It ranks second among all urgent neurological conditions. The therapeutic principle time-brain is applicable not only for urgent measures in acute cerebrovascular accident, but also for the relief of epileptic status, since the worst prognosis is associated with an increase in the duration of seizure activity. According to the standards proposed in the world for the treatment of epileptic status, benzodiazepines, intravenous forms of antiepileptic drugs, and general anesthetics are used. In the Russian Federation, the use of many drugs is limited due to the lack of registration, their lack in standards, and unavailability in hospitals. Due to the lack of studies on the treatment of epileptic status that go beyond the early stage of status, most of the recommendations presented worldwide remain based on case series or expert judgment. The efficacy benefits of anti-status drugs used in the second and third stages of epileptic status therapy remain unclear. Therefore, if there is a choice of anti-status drugs, the decision of which drug, in what dose and in what sequence will be used, should be made by the senior and most trained doctor in this matter, taking into account the characteristics of each patient. Based on modern international and personal experience, the paper presents a step-by-step protocol for the treatment of generalized convulsive epileptic status, discusses the successes and problems of providing care to patients with this pathology in Russia. The quality of medical care in epileptic status can be significantly improved provided that medical personnel at all stages of the treatment protocol are required to evacuate patients with epileptic status to specialized centers of multidisciplinary hospitals with the possibility of examination and therapy, including the availability of EEG monitors, neuroimaging and laboratory capabilities, and also access to modern antiepileptic drugs (1 table, bibliography: 30 refs)

Quality Of Medical Care

One of the main tasks of the national healthcare is to increase the accessibility and quality of medical care to the population. One way of assessing the quality of care is to study patient satisfaction with medical care through sociological research. The degree of patient satisfaction reflects not only the social effectiveness of medical organizations, but also the work of all health systems. The bulk of medical care a child receives in the conditions of the polyclinic. Parents, being legal representatives of the child, can objectively assess the quality of medical care provided to them in the children's polyclinic, and, if necessary, protect his legitimate interests. With a view to identifying the main causes of the dissatisfaction of the child population of Saint Petersburg by the accessibility and quality of ambulatory-polyclinic care, the anonymous questionnaire of 1488 parents of children receiving the medical care in outpatient polyclinics was conducted. It found that in children's polyclinics parents often face difficulties when calling the doctor home, visiting a pediatrician and subspecialties doctor, passing medical examinations and procedures. Parents were not always satisfied with the preventive activities and sanitary and hygienic condition of the polyclinic. There are cases of inattentive and mistreatment by medical personnel. In General, over half (53.2%) parents have remained completely unsatisfied or not fully satisfied by the quality of provided ambulatory-polyclinic care.

Definition Of

Today, ensuring the safety of patients and medical personnel is an integral part of medical practice. In dentistry, this problem is especially relevant, given the fact that dentists occupy one of the leading places in terms of the frequency of professional errors among doctors who have been sued, as well as the frequency of complaints from patients about the quality of medical care. This article discusses the safety of medical activities and the safety of medical care in medical organizations, in general, and in dentistry in particular, an analysis of the regulatory documentation in relation to these concepts is carried out, and issues of terminology are considered. Analysis of literary sources shows that today there is uncertainty in the interpretation of the concept of "safety of medical activity" due to the lack of a legislatively enshrined definition of this concept. With regard to dental practice, the safety of medical activities includes the safety of the patient, the safety of medical personnel, the safety of the environment in which dental care is provided, as well as the safety of pharmaceuticals and medical dental equipment. Organizational, legal, personnel and economic security can also be considered as constituent parts of the safety of medical activities. At the same time, there is no unambiguous understanding of the relationships between the concepts of safety of medical activity, safety of medical care, safety of medical services, safety of the medical environment. An important unresolved to date task is to determine the criteria for assessing the safety of medical activities. Taking into account the versatility of the concept of the safety of medical activities and the specifics of medical activities, it is necessary to develop criteria for assessing the safety of medical activities for each specialty, including dentistry. It seems that the assessment structure should be uniform for all medical activities, but include specific elements with criteria for the safety of medical activities in individual specialties.
