Professor Christian Braegger Visits Arabkir Medical Center Again
Professor Christian Braegger recently visited Arabkir Medical Center as part of his ongoing collaboration with the Gastroenterology and Endoscopy Services. With many years of experience as the Head of the Gastroenterology and Nutrition Service at the University Children’s Hospital in Zurich, Professor Braegger held consultative discussions on complex clinical cases with colleagues from Arabkir, as well as with specialists from other medical institutions.   Under his direct supervision, several endoscopic procedures were performed, including gastroscopy and colonoscopy with multi-stage biopsies. Additionally, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) placements were carried out in children with neurological disorders who face significant challenges with swallowing and nutrition. During his visit, Professor Braegger also met with Professor Ara Babloyan, Scientific Director of Arabkir Medical Center, to discuss new ideas for future collaboration.   #arabkirmc #gastroenterology #գաստրոէնտերոլոգիա #endoscopy
Caries (Tooth Decay) Awareness Day
Caries, or tooth decay, is damage to the enamel caused by bacteria and sugary foods. It often starts silently — as tiny, invisible spots — but can quickly turn into black dots and eventually deep cavities. These cavities form a dangerous path to the nerve and root of the tooth, sometimes leading to severe pain or even tooth loss.   Dear parents, please pay special attention to your children's dental health by encouraging a healthy, balanced diet, helping them learn proper and timely brushing habits, and ensuring they visit the dentist regularly. Prevention is always easier and more effective than treatment.   #CariesAwareness #caries #ArabkirMC
17 Years of Collaboration – Professor Saurenmann Visits Arabkir
Arabkir Medical Center was once again honored to welcome Professor Traudel Saurenmann, our long-time partner in pediatric rheumatology.   With extensive clinical experience in leading hospitals in Zurich and Winterthur, Switzerland, Professor Saurenmann has been collaborating with the Rheumatology Service at Arabkir for the past 17 years, working closely with Dr. Gayane Khloyan, Head of the Service.   During this visit, as in previous ones, the professor consulted on approximately 40 complex pediatric rheumatology cases. She also delivered a lecture focused on focal and systemic scleroderma, enriching both clinical practice and medical education at the center.   Arabkir deeply values this long-standing partnership, which continues to enhance the quality of care for children with rheumatic conditions. #ԱրաբկիրԲՀ #arabkirmc #ռևմատոլոգիա #rheumatology
Happy Birthday, Ashot Gyulbudaghyan!
Today we celebrate the 70th anniversary of Ashot Varos Gyulbudaghyan, the esteemed head of one of the cornerstone departments of the Arabkir Medical Center—the Intensive Care and Resuscitation Department.   For decades, Dr. Gyulbudaghyan’s dedicated and tireless work has saved the lives of thousands of children. He is a true professional—one whose compassion and empathy have not only healed young patients but also brought comfort and peace to even the most distressed parents.   Congratulations, dear Ashot Varos! Your contribution is invaluable and immeasurable—not only to Arabkir Medical Center, but to the entire healthcare system of Armenia. We wish you and your loved ones good health, boundless love, and a life filled with light and warmth.    While the work in intensive care is urgent and demanding, capturing it on camera is a slow and careful process. That’s why we invite you to watch a previously aired feature by the  Public TV Company, highlighting a serious case of severe pesticide poisoning in a child.  Watch and listen once again to the words of the distinguished Dr. Ashot Gyulbudaghyan. Dear parents, please remain vigilant when it comes to your children’s health.
