The anesthesia - surgical team from the Stony Brook University of New York was in “Arabkir” Medical Center under the leadership of our compatriot, pediatric anesthesiologist, Doctor of Medicine Vahe Tadevosyan.  This was another visit made within the framework of many years of cooperation in order to share and exchange innovative experience and skills with each other. In addition to joint consultations, discussions and work in the operating room, the specialists from the US presented interesting clinical cases and new scientific materials. They emphasized that with each visit to “Arabkir”, they consistently learn something new and valuable from their colleagues, which they are then able to apply in their practice, making these visits extremely important for them as well.   News.am   “Anesthesiology, especially pediatric anesthesiology, is one of the most complex fields of medicine. Working with children in this field is special, based on both anatomical and physiological nuances, as well as pharmacological ones”. Khachatur Kyurkchyan, head of the anesthesiology and intensive care department of the "Arabkir" Medical Center, said this in a conversation with NEWS.am Medicine. According to him, this is one of the cases when it is not possible to say that the organism of a child is the same as the organism of an adult, just smaller. No. A specialist who does not know the anatomical and physiological characteristics of a child cannot successfully perform anesthesia, especially when it comes to babies one or two days old, whose brain is more sensitive to oxygen deprivation and whose cardiovascular system is less compensated. That is why, according to him, following international developments in pediatric anesthesiology, learning about innovative approaches, and exchanging professional experience and skills are very important, and "Arabkir" Medical Center cooperates with a number of clinics and professional associations for this purpose, including Vahe Tadevosyan's team from the famous Stony Brook clinic in the USA.  "And the exchange of experience and the discussion of cases regarding modern pediatric anesthesiology are important especially for those who are new to this field," Khachatur Kyurkchyan said. Now, the "Arabkir" Medical Center once again hosted a group of anesthesiologists and surgeons from Stony Brook University Hospital in New York, led by the famous Armenian anesthesiologist, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Vahe Tadevosyan. "For years, I have had a working relationship with the administration and teaching staff of the "Arabkir" Medical Center, and now I am lucky enough to gather a multidisciplinary team to come to Yerevan and work with our Armenian colleagues. Our goal is professional dialogue, discussion of ideas and exchange of experience. And I am very happy that we succeed, our visits create opportunities for professional mutual assistance," said pediatric anesthesiologist Vahe Tadevosyan from the Stony Brook University Hospital. These visits for exchange of experience and skills are of great importance for specialists from both sides, because in the conditions of daily development of practical medicine, innovative solutions appear, which are certainly interesting and educational.
