Charity is often basedreal events. So, St. Vladimir hospital in Moscow was based on the funds of a man who built railways in Russia. Nowadays this person would be called a shark business, he managed not only to connect the Ryazan and Michurinsk, Kursk and Kiev railways, but also to make friends with all the officials of that time using the state treasury for personal purposes. The name of this person is Pavel Grigorievich von Derviz.
The best memory of children
Von Derviz for a few years has become fabulouslyrich man. Simultaneously with the construction of roads, he organized joint-stock companies, successfully invested in shares and received dividends. The eldest son Vladimir was born. However, his son's life was short. He died one year after birth from bone tuberculosis. In 13 years the second son Andrei was born. And history repeated itself. Neither the best French doctors nor the unlimited capitals could save the life of the second son, he was also buried at the age of one.
In memory of the sons of St. Vladimir, the hospitalbears the name of the firstborn von Derviz. The founder asked the governor of Moscow that the hospital always bear the name of the son, was exemplarily kept and had 100 places for free treatment of orphans and poor children. All the conditions of the donor were fulfilled.
The hospital began accepting children from 0 to 12 years from August 1, 1876.
The Soviet period
At this time the hospital was renamed, perpetuating the name of the deceased Commissioner Rusakov, he was a doctor by training.
The change of name did not in any way affect the highest professional level of medical care provided to children.
Long 35 years in the hospital worked outstandingchildren's surgeon Stanislav Doletsky. With his name are associated with such unique techniques as correction of developmental anomalies, emergency surgical manual for infringed hernia of newborns, separation of Siamese twins. A lot of children born with a face cleft still operate on his technique, which allows one to immediately avoid a cosmetic defect. Also, according to the methods developed by Doletsky, extensive patch marks are eliminated in several stages.
The former name was returned to the hospital in 1991.
Unique department
St. Vladimir's Hospital has a department,which has no equal until now. This department of reconstructive surgery of the larynx, founded by Professor Chireshkin. Here sick children from all over the country are flocking - and come out with the ability to breathe and swallow independently.
Today this department is united with the thoracal department, but its "brand" has not lost.
Departments and services
Today St. Vladimir's Hospital has 25 branches. They are grouped in groups:
- clinical and diagnostic;
- surgical;
- infectious;
- somatic.
Diagnostic departments include ultrasound, laboratory, X-ray, endoscopic and functional diagnostics.
Surgical Profiles
St. Vladimir's Hospital in Sokolnikitraditionally it is precisely surgery. Here, preterm and neonatal children receive operational assistance, special conditions are required for them. Treat children with purulent processes, with the pathology of the face and jaws, suffering from the consequences of injuries or with the pathology of the development of the osseous system. Separation of thoracic (or thoracic) surgery is indicated. The work of 11 operating units is accompanied by specialists from anesthesia, resuscitation and hemodialysis departments. Gravitational blood surgery is used.
The arrangement of operating units is such that whenany surgical intervention can do without one's own efforts: there are enough specialists and equipment. This allows you to save life and health for children with congenital pathology, the account of life which sometimes goes for a minute.
Infant Infections
This is an indicator of the general well-being of this particular society. Infectious Hospital of St. Vladimir has 3 departments:
- Boxed infectious.
- ARVI (includes a syndrome of false croup or acute narrowing of the respiratory tract).
- Intestinal branch.
Pediatricians annually bring sad results:how many children perished from indomitable diarrhea and how much it suffocated in a dream. Features of the organism of young children are such that the usual infection for an adult develops in them lightning fast - so quickly that there is no time to resist. To cope with an infection of any genesis will be St. Vladimir's hospital. The infectious department accepts all children with unclear fevers, infectious mononucleosis, or any other difficult-to-diagnose conditions.
A place where children are rescued
Today St. Vladimir's Hospital in Sokolnikirenders round-the-clock emergency and urgent help. At any time you can bring a seriously ill child here, and the chances of his survival here are used completely.
On weekdays an advisorydepartment, where the signs of the disease specify, which specialist should be treated a child. This is extremely important for parents and children: many young couples do not have their own experience, and children do not know how to speak. Preliminary diagnosis here is exhibited in a matter of minutes. And the child can get specialized help on time.
Children of different ages
Hospital of St. Vladimir accepts and treatschildren from the period of newborn to 17 years of age. The union of such different ages is justified from the point of view of physiology. A two-meter-old young man may look like an adult, but all his organs and systems are not fully matured, which doctors consider in their work.
So, through the department of hemodialysis, thousands of patients who managed to survive to the donor kidney transplantation were treated only thanks to high technologies of blood purification.
Clinical base
The modern Rusakovskaya St. HospitalVladimir is the base of many scientific institutions. There are postgraduate training of practicing doctors from all over Russia. The specialists of the Moscow Medical-Stomatological Institute are improving. On the basis of the hospital, students and post-graduate students of the First Moscow State University are trained. Sechenov.
The hospital has joint work and close links with the Research Institute. Vladimirsky, better known as MONIKI.
It is in the Rusakovo hospital that children can getall kinds of high-tech medical care, inaccessible in other medical institutions. What is important is that most diagnostic and treatment activities are carried out for sick children free of charge, within the framework of CHI.
It is envisaged as a round-the-clock treatment in the departments, and stay in the day hospital.
A tangible spirituality
Simultaneously with the laying of hospital buildings on theterritory of the hospital the Trinity Life-Giving Temple was founded, in which the family tomb of von Dervizov was equipped. The temple received a name in honor of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir, the spiritual patron of the deceased first-born.
The temple survived difficult times, was consecrated insecond time after reconstruction in 1995. Here, newborns are baptized and maternity patients are treated. Parents can always pray for the health of their children. On Fridays, there are prayer services for the health of the sick.
The efforts of spiritual pastors and doctors are not in vain: every year more than 100,000 children turn to the hospital, many find a second life here.
A spoon of tar
Parents who have visited any of the branches givereviews that leave mixed feelings. On the one hand - a great staff, literacy and coherence of work which are incomparable, on the other - a complete lack of basic amenities. The last repair was carried out in 2012 in the thoracic department. The operating units are in the normal state, but the problem with the wards. They are few, like toilets. There are not enough bathtubs and showers, there are crowding and stuffiness. Parents huddle literally on chairs, enduring the difficulties of life. But even in these extremely difficult conditions, the staff maintains cleanliness, preventing the development of nosocomial infection.
An honored old hospital clearly requires investment and attention.
