Nuclear and radiation safety remains one of the most important components of the national security of our country. The increasing requirements for the medical care system in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in case of peacetime acute radiation injuries are due to the impossibility of completely eliminating the risks of radiation emergencies as a result of natural disasters, industrial radiation accidents and the threat of nuclear terrorism. The peacetime three-level system of medical support in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation has been developed. It is designed to guarantee the first aid, primary predoctor care, primary doctor care and primary specialized health care for victims of acute radiation injuries by medical units, formations and organizations in the territorial zone of responsibility. In 2017 it was completed a research work "Improving the organization of therapeutic care in acute radiation injuries at the stages of medical evacuation in radiation accidents". An analysis of medical service capabilities to provide specialized, high-tech medical care in radiation injuries showed the relevance of the clinical base development in military medical organizations and the importance of interaction with radiological medical centers of other ministries, agencies and services. The solution of these tasks will be facilitated by the creation of a specialized infrastructure on the basis of military medical organizations of the district (fleet), which is providing necessary conditions for the provision of medical assistance to victims of the radiation emergency.

The aimis to analyze the medical records of patients with malignant lymphoproliferative diseases (LPD) in the Russian Federation in 2016- 2017.Materials and methods. Treating physicians in 75 regions of the Russian Federation were asked to fill the survey questionnaire containing 9 types of malignant LPDs (according to the ICD-10 classification). The questions covered the epidemiology of LPD (prevalence, resistant forms, relapses and mortality), the existence of specialized institutions and beds, the costs of medical care in patients with malignant LPD, and the financial support of pharmacotherapy in these patients during their hospital stay.Results. We found that the most common malignant LPD in 2016-2017 was Hodgkin’s lymphoma (73.5 and 73.4%, respectively). The prevalence of resistant forms and recurrences of malignant LPD over this period accounted for 6.8% of the total patient population. In 2017, the number of patients who died was 7.5% less than that in 2016. There are 815 and 1,763 specialized institutions of the oncology and hematology profiles that provide medical care to children and adult patients, respectively. Among the malignant LPDs, the highest costs of drug therapy in 2016 pertained to lymphosarcoma, and in 2017 – to Hodgkin’s lymphoma. In the system of compulsory health insurance (OMC), the largest spending for both adult and pediatric patients in 2016 and 2017 was accounted for Hodgkin’s lymphoma; a similar result was obtained for the cost of therapy based on high-tech medical care.Conclusion. In 2017, the total number of patients with malignant LPD in the Russian Federation increased by 2.65% as compared to 2016, while the proportion of primary LPD decreased by 1.2%. In 2017, the total costs of drug supply in patients with malignant LPD in the RF increased by 55.35% as compared with 2016.

В статье поднимаются отдельные вопросы правового характера оказания медицинской помощи сотрудникам УИС в лечебно-профилактических учреждениях ФСИН России, МВД России, Минобороны России, а также в учреждениях государственной или муниципальной систем здравоохранения. Проведен анализ нормативных баз Минздрава России и Минюста России, в которых осуществляется регламентирование вопросов оказания медицинской помощи. Показано, что в федеральных и ведомственных нормативно-правовых актах Минюста России законодательно не закреплен порядок оказания высокотехнологичной медицинской помощи по перечню видов, которые не включены в базовую программу ОМС. В целях устранения пробела в законодательстве предлагается медицинской службе ФСИН России разработать соответствующий регламент, в котором прописать перечень необходимых документов и порядок направления на лечение нуждающихся сотрудников. Проведенный опрос сотрудников УИС показал, что более 2/3 респондентов недовольны не только условиями, в которых оказываются медицинские услуги, но и качеством оказанной им медицинской помощи. Рассмотрены права и возможности сотрудников УИС по предъявлению претензий к лечебному учреждению в случае неудовлетворенности качеством оказанной медицинской услуги (помощи). Анализируются проблемы правового регулирования и практического решения вопроса, оценки качества оказанной медицинской услуги (помощи). Предлагается сформировать в системе ФСИН России институт экспертов по оценке качества медицинской помощи. The article raises certain issues of the legal nature of the provision of medical assistance to the penal correction system in medical institutions of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, as well as institutions of the state or municipal health systems. The analysis of the regulatory framework of the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Justice, which regulates the provision of medical care. It is shown that the federal and departmental regulatory legal acts of the Ministry of Justice do not legislatively regulate the procedure for providing high-tech medical care according to the list of species that are not included in the basic program of compulsory medical insurance. In order to fill the gap in the legislation, it is proposed that the medical service of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia develop an appropriate regulation in which a list of necessary documents and the procedure for referring treatment to needy employees are prescribed. A survey of employees of the penal correction system showed that more than 2/3 of respondents are dissatisfied not only with the conditions in which medical services are provided, but also with the quality of medical care provided to them. The rights and possibilities of the penitentiary system staff to make claims to a medical institution in case of dissatisfaction with the quality of the medical service (assistance) provided are examined. The problems of legal regulation and practical solution of the issue, assessing the quality of the medical service (assistance) provided are analyzed. It is proposed to form an institute of experts in the FSIN system for assessing the quality of medical care.

Purpose. Carrying out medical and statistical analysis of morbidity and mortality of the population with malignant neoplasms, development of proposals for greater accessibility and areas of improvement of specialized including high-tech medical care (HTMC) for patients with cancer in the Moscow region.Materials and methods. The analysis of morbidity and mortality of the population of the Moscow region from malignant neoplasms and the organization of specialized, including high-tech, medical care to cancer patients on the basis of forms of Federal state statistical observations in relation to the three-level system of the organization of medical care to the population of the region with identification of organizational and financial problems.Results. The incidence of malignant neoplasms in the Moscow region in 2017 amounted to 364.9 per 100 thousand population, which is 1.0% below the level of 2016-365.9 per 100 thousand population and below the average for the Central Federal district and the Russian Federation. The mortality rate from neoplasms in the Moscow region decreased in 2017 to 174.7 cases per 100 thousand population, which is less than the average for the Central Federal district — 207.1 and the Russian Federation — 196.9 per 100 thousand population. At the same time, the volume of specialized medical care (including high — tech medical care) for malignant tumors, in a 24-hour hospital is more than twice the average Russian standard — 13% for SMC and 50% for HTMC. Exceeding the standard of medical care is mainly due to the HTMC 2, which is not planned in the subject of the Russian Federation and is usually in Federal clinics. The share of oncological medical care received outside the medical organizations of the MR is 16%, which exceeds the share of medical care in all other profiles received outside the Moscow region (12%). This situation contributes to the availability of cancer care to the population of the Moscow region.Conclusion. The performed work allowed to draw conclusions that in normative legal acts of Federal level it is necessary to define separately the standard of volumes of specialized, including hi-tech medical care, on the profile of Oncology. Large volumes of HTMC cannot be an unambiguous characteristic of the availability of medical care in General, since HTMC is medical care with the use of complex methods of diagnosis and treatment in clinically complex cases. Large volumes of HTMC can be a consequence of the complexity of clinical cases, but also a consequence of neglect of the disease due to the lack of diagnosis and treatment in the provision of primary health care (PHC) at the 1st level. In the Moscow region, there is a need to redistribute the volume of this medical care not only to cancer dispensaries, but also to other medical organizations. After that, there is a need for the distribution of patients, taking into account the morbidity in the territories, the place of residence of citizens, and taking into account the capabilities of medical organizations for the treatment of cancer patients (surgical treatment, chemotherapy, radiotherapy). Medical organizations of the subject of the Federation shall be ranked taking into account the applied technologies and opportunities of drug therapy. As a result, a clear routing of patients with cancer should be developed in the subject of the Russian Federation.

Introduction. In Russia, there is a need to reorganize the system of providing specialized surgical care to children, primarily in emergency and urgent care and in remote, sparsely populated, and hard-to-reach areas. This need is evidenced by the significant persisting disparities in the mortality rate in the countrys various regions. Purpose of the study. This study aims to provide multifactorial substantiation of the expediency, profile, and location of specialized (surgical) interregional centers (MRC), including high-tech, medical care for children, by the priority profiles of activity, about medical organizations of the federal districts (FD) of Russia. Materials and methods. The study design included a two-level (regional and federal) system of professional expertise and justification in terms of the profile, location, and area of responsibility of the MRC in the federal district of the country. At the regional level, Delphi technology was implemented with a mathematical and statistical analysis of 103 expert opinions from 85 constituent entities of Russia, the result of which activities priority profiles were substantiated (newborn surgery, neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, oncology, combustiology) and patient routing preferences. At the second stage of the work, with the involvement of federal experts, the SWOT analysis technology was implemented as a universal method of strategic planning, with the justification of the location and number of MRCs in individual FD of the country, about specific medical organizations where they are based. For an objective (quantitative) assessment of the provision of the Federal District of Russia with the MRC of specialized medical care for children according to the established profiles of activity, we have proposed a calculated indicator the regional contingency coefficient (CRC), representing the ratio of two uniformly calculated values the number of MRCs and regions in a particular Federal District, or the country as a whole. Results. The consolidated position of federal experts regarding the location of the MRC was formulated according to the established profiles of activity about FD and specific medical organizations in the Russian Federation constituent entities. The cattle in the profile of the activity of neonatal surgery was 0.14, and about neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, and oncology, respectively, 0.12, 0.11, and 0.11 for Russia as a whole. The lowest (0.09) cattle in the country characterized the situation with the combustiology profile. In the overwhelming majority (76.0%), the location of the MRC is tied to the administrative centers of the Federal District or cities of federal significance. Among the 50 MRCs of all priority profiles, 43 (86%) were potentially designated by experts based on multidisciplinary pediatric medical organizations. Discussion. The effectiveness of the MRC functioning is due to the organization of medical and evacuation support for children with diseases and injuries. The development of consultative and resuscitation centers in the primary hospital structure is promising. Its functionality, along with remote counseling, treatment, and evacuation activities, includes monitoring the condition of sick and affected children at the place of primary hospitalization. An alternative is a presence on the clinical base of the MRC of a structural unit or a branch of the regional center for emergency medical care and disaster medicine. Conclusion. Overcoming the inequality in the availability and quality of medical care for children in certain FD and regions of Russia is necessary to reorganize the current system of staged medical care. Optimal logistics of medical and evacuation support for specialized patients and injured people include the MRC as a collector for children in need of specialized care, including high-tech medical care, with the implementation of the predominant principle of evacuation of oneself.

Ukraine’s international economic cooperation with other countries is becoming a determining factor in providing national security, in particular, in the political, military and economic spheres. This is manifested in such areas as the equipping of the Armed Forces and other components, the implementation of national weapons production projects and the export of Ukrainian weapons. The Russian Federation's aggression against Ukraine in 2014 led not only to the cessation of Ukrainian-Russian high-technical cooperation, but also transformed Russia from a competitor in the market of weapons of mass destruction into an overt enemy of the Ukrainian state, which compelled Ukraine to start looking for a new model of behavior in the market. Given that both Ukraine and the Russian Federation operate largely in the same segment the weapons market, Ukraine would be able to move from this segment dominated by our main competitor only with the support of our strategic partners and international sanctions policy against the RF because of its aggression against Ukraine. The possibility of using high-technical cooperation between Ukraine and the USA as an instrument of displacement of the Russian Federation from the world market of weapons-equipped vehicles is substantiated. It is proved that US interest in the implementation of sanctions imposed by the Russian Federation and the prevention of Russian weapons in the zone of conflict through third countries can be a powerful impetus for the development of Ukrainian-American cooperation in the high-tech sphere. Cooperation in traditional industries such as transport aircraft building, marine shipbuilding and turbine construction, rocket engineering, which are predominantly state-owned and not traded on stock markets, requires additional attention from the state to attract US investment and assistance. Variants of development of these basic branches industries have been addressed in numerous research papers. At the same time, other areas of cooperation deserve a greater attention. Priority, in our opinion, should be given to strategic materials for manufacturing and energy sector; electronics and communications industry. The article discusses ways to enhance military technology cooperation in a manner that would better reflect both parties’ strategic interests and argues that a deeper understanding of these interests will help attract investment into the domestic industrial sector.

Introduction. The large size of the Russian Federation, different size and density of the child population in the regions of the country require for careful planning organization of care for children with cancer and the rational use of available resources, since in spite of the significant progress made in pediatric oncology, malignant neoplasms (External testing) are the second most common cause of the death in children. Purpose of the study. Perfection of the organizational-methodological approaches to care for children with cancer in Russia in order to improve the quality and effectiveness of treatment. Material and methods. In a non-randomized non-controlled study there were included reports of regional ministries and departments of health from 83 subjects of the Russian Federation for 2013. Results. The highest incidence rate of malignant tumors (per 100,000 ofpopulation agedfrom 0 to 17 years) was registered in the Lipetsk region - 21.7, the lowest - in the Republic of Tyva - 5.5. The number of patients newly diagnosed in 2013 was the highest in the Central and Volga Federal Districts - 775 and 653, respectively. The smallest - in the Far Eastern Federal District - 138. The number of primary patients referred to the federal clinic, was the largest in the North Caucasus Federal District (North Caucasus Federal District) - 80%, the lowest - in the South - 32.5%, the largest number of doctors who do not have primary specialization in “Children’s oncology”, was registered in the North Caucasus Federal District and the Volga Federal District - 50%, the lowest - Urals - 14.2%. Total in Russia 51 children’s oncological department operate, while the number of beds in which we treat these patients, including beds in non-core branches is 2021. 390 doctors treat children with cancer, out of which 252 (64, 6%) did not have a certificate in pediatric oncology. In 2013, 33 78 children were registered with the External testing, 1705 (50.5%) of them were directed for the management in federal clinics. Conclusion. It is necessary to improve further the existing vertical provision of high-tech medical care for children with cancer, the creation of regional cancer registers, certification of specialists and the quality control of medical care through the implementation of internal and external audit.

The article highlights the problems associated with improving quality, reducing costs and increasing availability of medical care with limited funding in Russia. The necessity to ensure a greater consistency of transformation of medical services into cost-effective products has been substantiated. The main engine of progress is innovations whose development and introduction into the medical industry can provide a new level of medical care for the population. It has been stated that at present in the Russian Federation there are no large industrial enterprises in the medical industry that are able to enter the world market with their innovative developments. Development of medicine requires the complex long-term research, clinical trials and significant financial and resource costs, which in most cases leads to unrealized implementation. Medical industry is one of the most high-tech industries characterized by a high level of research and innovations. The structure of production of medical products and equipment is considered. The stages of the innovation process (development of innovation and its commercialization) have been designated. The elements of the innovation system in health care have been shown. The factors constraining the innovative development of the medical industry in Russia, including insufficient state participation, are investigated. The comparative analysis of the current costs on health care in different countries has been carried out; Russia is found to rank 35th place among 44 countries under study. The state federal programs of the Russian Federation aimed at creating a national innovation system in the medical industry, changing the structure of spending on medicine and approaching the level of spending of developed countries have been considered. The problems of commercialization in the Russian medical industry, which lead to a slowdown in production growth, are formulated, and possible solutions are proposed.

More than 1,7 million people, 770 thousand people from HIV infection, died from tuberculosis worldwide in 2018. In accordance with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the World Health Organization’s strategy to fight tuberculosis, all countries need to reduce the incidence of tuberculosis by 80% and reduce the death rate from tuberculosis by 90% by 2030. According to the Joint United Nations programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) goals of «90–90–90», countries should achieve the following indicators by 2020: «90% of people living with HIV infection should know their HIV status; 90% of those who know about their HIV infection should receive treatment, and 90% of those who are being treated should not have their viral load determined». Socially significant diseases are a serious problem for the Russian Federation (RF). The RF is one of 30 countries with a high incidence of tuberculosis and ranks 3rd place in multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and 6th place in the prevalence of HIV infection. Socially significant diseases present a serious problem for the Armed Forces of the RF. 150 new cases of tuberculosis, over 50 cases of HIV infection are diagnosed every year among military personnel of the RF Armed Forces.The purpose of the study is to analyze the current epidemiological situation of tuberculosis and HIV infection in the armed forces of the Russian Federation and foreign armies, to generalize domestic and foreign experience in the organization of medical care for military personnel with these diseases.Data from reports of the medical service and a review of domestic Russian and foreign medical literature allowed us to assess TB and HIV sickness rate among military personnel in the RF and foreign states, as well as to characterize the current system of medical care for this category of patients.
