Since October 2002, S.V. Gauthier was the first in Russia to perform related transplantation of a fragment of the pancreas for type 1 diabetes mellitus in adults and children. Thus, for the first time in domestic practice, radical treatment of diabetes mellitus has been carried out.

The development of high technologies in the field of organ transplantation has contributed to scientific progress in the field of related disciplines - anesthesiology, resuscitation, perfusionology, etc. Unique fundamental scientific data have been obtained on the pathophysiological and morphological mechanisms of liver survival in extreme situations and its regeneration.

Under the leadership of S.V. Gauthier liver transplantation has evolved from an experimental operation that is exclusive to Russian practice into a routine procedure performed weekly with a predicted positive outcome. Professor Gauthier combines his high surgical activity with successful scientific and teaching activities. He created a school of transplantologists developing various areas of organ transplantation, liver and pancreas surgery. Under his leadership, 12 candidate and doctoral dissertations were defended. Much attention to S.V. Gauthier devotes his time to training specialists from various regions of Russia and foreign countries, implementing a program to organize new transplant centers. Students of S. V. Gauthier have already performed the first operations on related liver transplantation in St. Petersburg and Ukraine.

The main direction of scientific research of A.Sh. Revishvili - study of clinical electrophysiology of the heart and the formation of arrhythmia mechanisms. He obtained priority data on the electrophysiological and anatomical substrate of supraventricular and non-coronary ventricular arrhythmias, including in children with heart defects and adult patients with coronary heart disease. He was the first to propose an original classification of variants of ventricular preexcitation syndromes and low-traumatic (catheter) methods for eliminating arrhythmias in this pathology. He was the first to describe arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right atrium, leading to atrial flutter, and developed a method for its treatment using cryo- or radiofrequency destruction.

For outstanding achievements in the field of endovascular treatment cardiovascular diseases A.Sh. Revishvili was awarded the prize named after academician. RAMS V.I. Burakovsky for 2001.

A.Sh. Revishvili is the author of new algorithms for the differential diagnosis of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias, atrial fibrillation and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. The new methods of diagnosis and electrotherapy of arrhythmias developed by him are implemented in the latest generation of implantable cardioverters - defibrillators, which are today widely used to prevent sudden cardiac death in dozens of countries around the world. His priority in the field of electrophysiological diagnostics and electrotherapy of life-threatening arrhythmias is confirmed by European and American patents. Results of scientific research by A.Sh. Revishvili and his colleagues made it possible to take a new approach to the issues of electrophysiological diagnosis and treatment of tachycardias.

Laureate of the Government of the Russian Federation Prize, Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, Academician of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the 1st Medical Faculty of the I Moscow Medical Institute. I.M. Sechenov.
Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov is one of the founders of the organization of perinatal fetal care in Russia. Under his leadership, the latest methods for assessing the functional state of the fetus and mother in various types of obstetric and extragenital pathologies were introduced into obstetric practice. Using modern highly informative methods for studying systemic hemodynamics (echocardiography, Doppler), the pathogenesis of gestosis at the preclinical and clinical stages and the features of its clinical course in modern conditions were studied. Four types of maternal hemodynamics during gestosis have been identified. An algorithm for examining pregnant women was developed and implemented high risk development of gestosis, a differentiated approach to the prevention of this pathology, an algorithm for examining pregnant women with gestosis, indications for early and emergency delivery, a differentiated approach to antihypertensive therapy in the postpartum period.
On the initiative of Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov, the features of fetal hemodynamics in fetal growth restriction syndrome of various origins, long-term results of the physical and psychom*otor development of newborns were studied. The developed algorithm for examining pregnant women with fetal growth restriction syndrome and substantiating the indications for early delivery made it possible to significantly improve the long-term results of children's development.
Based on an in-depth study of fetal hemodynamics during postterm pregnancy (Doppler study of blood flow in arterial and venous vessels) of the fetus, early diagnostic and prognostic criteria for fetal hypoxia were developed and labor management tactics were substantiated.
Using Doppler research methods, the mechanisms of pathogenesis of systemic hemodynamic disorders in pregnant women with arterial hypotension and arterial hypertension. The basic principles of drug correction of maternal and fetal hemodynamic disorders have been developed and substantiated.
A new modification of the cesarean section operation has been developed and implemented, which has significantly reduced the time of surgical intervention and intraoperative blood loss. A detailed study (transvagin*l echography, dynamic laparoscopy, hysteroscopy) of the features of the course of the uncomplicated and complicated postoperative period was carried out. New tactics for managing endometritis after surgery have been developed caesarean section.
Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov is the initiator of the development of a new branch of gynecology in our country - minimally invasive surgery. He performed the first successful operations using the latest methods (miniscopy) for purulent inflammatory diseases of the uterine appendages.
Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov made a great contribution to the problem of surgical treatment of genital endometriosis, endometrial hyperplastic processes, uterine tumors using laparoscopy and hysteroresectoscopy. Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov was the first in Russia to introduce the method of vagin*l hysterectomy for tumors without disturbing the anatomy of the pelvic floor.
The accumulated clinical experience allowed A.N. Strizhakov to develop a method of dynamic prolonged sanitation of the abdominal cavity for gynecological peritonitis using a laparoscopic cannula.
A.N. Strizhakov enjoys high authority and well-deserved respect in the medical and scientific world as a scientist and an excellent surgeon. A.N. Strizhakov pays great attention to the development of pedagogical science. In numerous scientific publications, he raised issues of improving teaching in higher education, including fundamental issues of postgraduate training of specialists.

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (35)

Syrkin Abram Lvovich was born in 1930 in Moscow, in the family of a prominent domestic hygienist, Professor L.A. Syrkina. In 1948, after graduating from high school, he entered the I Moscow Medical Institute named after I.M. Sechenov, who graduated in 1954. All further clinical, scientific and pedagogical activity Abram Lvovich is associated with the Department of Faculty Therapy of the First Moscow Medical Institute, now the Moscow Medical Academy named after I.M. Sechenov, on which he went through the traditional path as a resident, graduate student, assistant, associate professor and, finally, professor.
The traditions of the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic, the oldest therapeutic clinic in the country, inherited by its leaders and employees, Abram Lvovich’s teachers - academicians Vladimir Nikitich Vinogradov, Zinaida Adamovna Bondar, Professor Vitaly Grigorievich Popov, were brought up by A.L. from a young age. Syrkin’s qualities that have always distinguished the best representatives of domestic clinical medicine - dedication to serving the sick person, high feeling responsibility to future generations of doctors, to whose education Abram Lvovich devoted decades, the focus of scientific activity on problems that are most clinically relevant.
The first steps of the scientific activity of A.L. Syrkin were devoted to the study of edema syndrome in cardiorheumatological practice. In 1960, he defended his candidate's dissertation on the topic “Rate of Na24 resorption from the skin in rheumatism and rheumatic heart defects.” In the early 60s A.L. Syrkin was one of the first to draw attention to the great potential of the method of electropulse therapy for cardiac arrhythmias and begins active development of this problem. The result of a number of years of hard work were clearly formulated principles for selecting patients for the EIT procedure, preparing for its implementation, and the cardioversion technique itself, as well as the principles of subsequent patient management. The research results were reflected in the doctoral dissertation of A.L. Syrkin, as well as in the monograph “Electropulse treatment of cardiac arrhythmias in a therapeutic clinic” (co-authored with A.V. Nedostup and I.V. Mayevskaya), published in 1970, for many years which is very popular among domestic cardiologists.
Further scientific and clinical activities A.L. Syrkina is largely devoted to coronary heart disease and, in particular, myocardial infarction. By the beginning of the 70s, the first cardiac intensive care unit in Moscow, created at the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic of the First MMI in 1959 by Academician V.N. Vinogradov and his students, expanded to a multi-bed intensive care unit, and since 1976, after the clinic moved to a new building, the department of coronary heart disease began to function there. Since then, for almost 30 years, Abram Lvovich Syrkin has been directing the work of these two divisions of the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic, which in 1998 received the status of the cardiology clinic of the I.M. MMA. Sechenov, whose director was appointed Professor A.L. Syrkin.
Over the years, Abram Lvovich has successfully developed many of the most actual problems in this area of ​​cardiology, including aspects of the clinical course of myocardial infarction, its complications, treatment of heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, thrombolytic therapy. Particular attention should be paid to the work carried out in collaboration with a team of specialists in the field of applied mathematics, led by Academician I.M. Gelfand, and devoted to the issues of predicting the course of myocardial infarction and its complications. During this work, not only specific clinical problems were solved, but also fundamental issues of using mathematical methods in clinical medicine (formalization of the description of the patient, clinical situation, decision making, etc.).
The unique long-term experience of the country's first cardiac intensive care unit, headed for many years by Professor A.L. Syrkin, played a major role in the formation and development of the intensive care cardiological service of Russian healthcare.
The results of work in this direction are reflected in the monographs of A.L. Syrkin “Recurrent myocardial infarction” (together with A.I. Markova and L.V. Rainova) and “Myocardial infarction” (second edition, significantly revised and expanded in 1998).
In total, Abram Lvovich Syrkin published over 250 scientific papers. He generously passes on his versatile skills as a clinician and scientist to his many students: 30 Ph.D. theses were defended under the leadership of Abram Lvovich.
For many years, A.L. Syrkin has been leading a scientific student circle. Many former members of the circle became first-class doctors, candidates of science, employees of the country's leading clinical institutions, including the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic named after V.N. Vinogradova.
In his daily pedagogical work (lectures, seminars), A.L. Syrkin is distinguished by his desire to combine the solidity of the traditional pedagogical principles of the Vinogradov clinical school with the use of new methodological techniques - the development of new types of teaching aids, including elements of programming, training simulators.
Many years of experience as a clinician, combined with organizational skills and rich scientific knowledge, are used with maximum impact by A.L. Syrkin in his work as Chairman of the Commission on Clinical Diagnostic Instruments and Devices of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, Member of the Board of the Moscow Therapeutic and Cardiological Societies, Head of the Cardiology Department of the National Research Center of MMA named after I.M. Sechenov. Medical talent, rich clinical experience, high erudition as a scientist and teacher, dedication in everyday work, genuine intelligence made Abram Lvovich Syrkin widely known and respected both in the medical and scientific community, and among countless patients not only in Moscow, but throughout our country .

On this day we decided to remember outstanding domestic doctors.

Fyodor Petrovich Gaaz (1780 - 1853)

Russian doctor of German origin, known as the "holy doctor". From 1806 he served as a doctor in the Russian service. In 1809 and 1810 he traveled around the Caucasus, where he studied mineral springs(now Caucasian Mineral water), explored the springs in Kislovodsk, discovered the springs of Zheleznovodsk, and was the first to report the springs in Essentuki. During the War of 1812 with Napoleon, he worked as a surgeon in the Russian Army.

Haaz was a member of the Moscow Prison Committee and the chief physician of Moscow prisons. He dedicated his life to easing the lot of prisoners and exiles. He ensured that the old and sick were freed from shackles, and abolished the iron rod in Moscow to which 12 exiles heading to Siberia were chained. He also achieved the abolition of shaving half of the head of women. On his initiative, a prison hospital and a school for the children of prisoners were opened.

In addition, Haaz fought for the abolition of the right of landowners to exile serfs, and received and supplied medicines to poor patients.

Dr. Haas's motto is: "Hasten to do good." The Federal State Medical Institution “Regional Hospital named after Dr. F. P. Gaaz” is named after the famous physician.

Grigory Antonovich Zakharyin (1829 - 1897)

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (38)Russian general practitioner, founder of the Moscow clinical school. He graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of Moscow University, was a professor in the Department of Diagnostics of Moscow University, and later - director of the faculty therapeutic clinic. In 1894, Zakharyin treated Emperor Alexander III.

Zakharyin became one of the most outstanding clinical practitioners of his time and made a huge contribution to the creation of an anamnestic method for studying patients. He outlined his diagnostic techniques and views on treatment in “Clinical Lectures”.

The research methodology according to Zakharyin consisted of a multi-stage questioning of the patient by the doctor, which made it possible to get an idea of ​​the course of the disease and risk factors. At the same time, Zakharyin paid little attention to objective research and did not recognize laboratory data.

Doctor Zakharyin was known for his difficult character and lack of restraint in dealing with patients.

Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov (1810 - 1881)

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (39)Surgeon and anatomist, naturalist and teacher, creator of the first atlas of topographic anatomy, founder of military field surgery, founder of anesthesia. One of the founders of surgery as a scientific medical discipline. He developed a number of important operations and surgical techniques, was the first to propose rectal anesthesia and began to use ether anesthesia. For the first time in the world, he used anesthesia in military field surgery.

Pirogov was the first to widely use a plaster cast. Before this, gypsum was almost never used in medicine. Limited use had a starch bandage that dried slowly, became soaked with pus and blood, and was inconvenient in field conditions.

During the defense of Sevastopol, he involved women in caring for the wounded at the front. It was also he who first introduced mandatory primary sorting of the wounded into four groups. The mortally wounded were assisted by priests and nurses; the seriously wounded, requiring immediate assistance, were attended to by the doctor first. Those who did not require urgent surgery were sent to the rear. The slightly wounded, who could be quickly returned to duty, were treated by paramedics.

Even before the advent of antiseptics, Pirogov separated the wounded with purulent and gangrenous complications from those whose wounds were clean, which helped avoid the spread of infection.

As a teacher, Pirogov strove for the implementation of universal primary education and was the organizer of Sunday public schools. He also fought for the abolition of corporal punishment in the gymnasium.

Nikolai Vasilievich Sklifosovsky (1836 - 1904)

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (40)Honored Russian professor, surgeon, one of the founders of abdominal surgery (surgical treatment of female diseases, diseases of the stomach, liver and biliary tract, bladder), contributed to the introduction of the principles of antisepsis and asepsis, developed an original operation for connecting bones in false joints (“Russian castle”) . He made a significant contribution to the development of military field surgery, advocated bringing medical care closer to the battlefield, the principle of “saving treatment” of gunshot wounds, and the use of plaster casts as a means of immobilization for wounds of the extremities.

Sklifosovsky owns more than seventy scientific works on surgery, the development of asepsis and surgery in general.

The Moscow Research Institute of Emergency Medicine was named after Sklifosovsky.

The black spot in Sklifosovsky’s biography was the fate of his family. The only son of the legendary doctor committed suicide. Vladimir shot himself shortly before the October Revolution. He was a member of a terrorist organization and was supposed to kill the Poltava governor, however, he could not shoot the man with whom his family was friends.

In 1919, Cossacks of a pro-Bolshevik detachment brutally killed the wife of Nikolai Vasilyevich and his eldest daughter. Moreover, the document signed by Lenin, which stated that repressions would not apply to the family of the famous surgeon, could not save them from reprisals.

Sergei Petrovich Botkin

(1832 — 1889)

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (41)Russian general practitioner, founder of the doctrine of the integrity of the human body, public figure. He graduated from the Faculty of Medicine of Moscow University, was a participant in the Crimean War, and worked in the Simferopol hospital. He also worked in clinics in Konigsberg, Berlin, Vienna, England, and Paris.

In 1860, Sergei Botkin moved to St. Petersburg, where he defended his doctoral dissertation and received the title of professor of medicine.

Botkin became one of the founders of women's medical education, organized a school for female paramedics, as well as women's medical courses. For the first time in Russia, he created an experimental laboratory where he studied the physiological and pharmacological effects of medicinal substances. He created a new direction in medicine called nervism. It was he who established the infectious nature of such a disease as viral hepatitis, developed the diagnosis and clinic of the wandering kidney.

In 1861 he opened the first free outpatient clinic in the history of clinical treatment of patients, and achieved the construction of a free hospital, opened in 1880 (Alexandrovskaya Barracks Hospital, now the S.P. Botkin Hospital). Among Botkin’s students there are 85 doctors of science, including A. A. Nechaev, M. V. Yanovsky, N. Ya. Chistovich, I. P. Pavlov, A. G. Polotebnov, T. P. Pavlov, N. P. Simanovsky.

Ivan Petrovich Pavlov

(1849 — 1936)

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (42)Pavlov Ivan Petrovich is one of the most authoritative scientists in Russia, a physiologist, the creator of the science of higher nervous activity and ideas about the processes of regulation of digestion. He is the founder of the largest Russian physiological school and winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology in 1904 “for his work on the physiology of digestion.”

The main directions of Pavlov’s scientific activity are the study of the physiology of blood circulation, digestion and higher nervous activity. The scientist developed methods of surgical operations to create an “isolated ventricle” and used a new “chronic experiment” for his time, which made it possible to conduct observations on healthy animals under conditions as close as possible to natural ones.

As a result of his work, a new scientific discipline was formed - the science of higher nervous activity, which was based on the idea of ​​dividing reflexes into conditioned and unconditioned. Pavlov and his collaborators discovered the laws of formation and extinction conditioned reflexes, different types and types of inhibition were studied, the laws of basic nervous processes were discovered, sleep problems were studied and its phases were established, and much more.

Pavlov became widely known for his doctrine of the types of the nervous system, which is based on ideas about the relationship between the processes of excitation and inhibition, and the doctrine of signaling systems.

Pavlov's scientific work influenced the development of related fields of medicine and biology, including psychiatry. Under the influence of his ideas, large scientific schools in therapy, surgery, psychiatry, and neuropathology were formed.

Sergei Sergeevich Yudin (1891 - 1954)

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (43)A prominent Soviet surgeon and scientist, chief surgeon of the Research Institute of Emergency Medicine named after. N.V. Sklifosovsky, Director of the Research Institute of Surgery named after. A. V. Vishnevsky.

Yudin developed techniques for gastric resection for peptic ulcers, perforated gastric ulcers and gastric bleeding, and operations for creating an artificial esophagus.

Sergei Sergeevich Yuin wrote 15 monographs and published 181 scientific papers.

In 1948, he was arrested by the NKVD on false charges as “an enemy of the Soviet state who supplied British intelligence with spy information about our country.” While in prison, he wrote the book “Reflections of a Surgeon.” From 1952 until his release in September 1953, he was in exile, during which he worked as a surgeon in Berdsk. The doctor was released only after Stalin's death, in 1953.

Medicine is a very multifaceted science. But sometimes it opens up to us in completely unexpected ways. In our article today we will not talk about psychology, dentistry, or even surgery. Today we will talk about popular medicine. Yes, you heard right – about popular medicine. And mind you, not only in narrow circles.

To consider yourself an expert in this “discipline”, you don’t need to gnaw on the granite of science for a long time and persistently. It is enough to pick up a fascinating book or turn on the TV and plunge headlong into the exciting world of doctors. The most famous fictional doctors, better than any textbook, can open up for us the completely boring world of medicine.

So, who are they, these heroes of our time? And why do we love them so much?

Professor Preobrazhensky, book and film “Heart of a Dog”

Professor Preobrazhensky is no less famous to Russian moviegoers and readers. Philip Philipovich boldly, at that time, criticized the Soviet regime. And at the same time, he conducts an equally daring surgical experiment: he transplants a human pituitary gland into a dog. The operation is successful, and the dog begins to turn into a slob with a dog's surname Sharikov.

Despite the transformation of his body, Sharikov’s behavior and his position in life remain completely “dog-like.” In connection with this, the professor, having admitted his strategic mistake, carries out a repeated complex operation. And the man turns into a dog again.

The magnificent surgeon was created by the classic Mikhail Bulgakov in his story “ dog's heart" He was brought to the screen by the famous Soviet actor Evgeny Evstigneev.

Dr. John Watson, The Notes of Sherlock Holmes series

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (44)

The famous assistant of the famous detective, who more than once advised Holmes on medical issues, is John Hamish Watson. Moreover, in addition to the doctor, this hero became the biographer of Sherlock Holmes.

Watson took part in the war as a military doctor and was wounded. Later they meet the famous detective, and their acquaintance develops into friendship. The doctor often provides the detective with very valuable services.

Conan Doyle's work has been filmed more than once. One of the most famous film adaptations is the Soviet series, in which Vitaly Solomin played Watson. Few people know that in Conan Doyle’s work Holmes never once utters the phrase “Elementary, Watson!” And this is not the only adjustment made by Soviet scriptwriters. According to the book, Watson was wounded in Afghanistan, but the writers of the series “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” sent the doctor to fight in India, wanting to avoid unpleasant situations.

Yuri Andreevich Zhivago from the novel of the same name “Doctor Zhivago”

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (45)

Boris Pasternak's novel has been filmed four times. The last time in 2005 the main role was played by Oleg Menshikov.

Against the backdrop of serious social and historical upheavals of the last century, a deep personal drama unfolds for the very talented doctor Yuri Zhivago. Boris Pasternak incorporated into the hero's surname deep meaning. It comes from the Old Slavonic expression “God Zhivago”. It denotes Jesus Christ, God and man, “who heals all living things.”

Evgeny Lukashin from the film “The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath”

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (46)

A timeless New Year's classic. Who among us did not fall in love with this drunken, intelligent surgeon Evgeny Lukashin, who, on the occasion of the holiday, drank with friends, confused Moscow with Leningrad, met his love in Leningrad (34-year-old Russian language teacher Nadezhda Sheveleva) and managed to make her fall in love with him in a couple of days myself. As a result, Nadya abandons her prominent groom, Lukashin abandons his beautiful bride, and love triumphs.

The role of Lukashin was unforgettably performed by the talented Soviet actor Andrei Myagkov.

Dr. Gregory House, from the series of the same name "Dr. House"

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (47)

A cynic, but a talented doctor and a brilliant diagnostician from God, who uttered the famous “Everybody lies” - simply a hero of our time. Which, however, is not surprising. Eternally working parents, unloved children and a good education are now doing their job with all their might - raising a generation of brilliant cynics.

House appeared on screens in 2004, starring British actor Hugh Laurie. The series, repeatedly favored by prestigious awards and film critics, has haunted the whole world since its appearance. The doctor who prefers the most complex cases, capable of making a correct diagnosis almost at a glance, captivates millions of moviegoers with his erudition.

Sarcastic, but not stupid, House's comments quickly go from the screen into the world, becoming catchphrases. It is no less interesting to observe the wise behavior of colleagues who accept the disliked genius for who he is. They try to love, understanding that each of us is deprived in our own way.

Andrey Evgenievich Bykov, series “Interns”

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (48)

An equally shocking hero of our time, but of domestic production, was the cynical misanthrope doctor, the colorful manager therapeutic department Dr. Andrey Evgenievich Bykov.

An excellent specialist who is constantly at work and does not have time to do what he loves (and he loves bikes, Nirvana, video games and the head doctor) has found a way to make his work less boring. Under his command are several interns, whom the manager constantly teases, and not without pleasure. And although our hero cannot take away his cynicism, but cheerful character, originality and sparkling sense of humor made him a people's favorite.

The series “Interns” owes its popularity, not least of all, to the leading actor, charismatic actor, screenwriter, director and very extraordinary personality Ivan Okhlobystin. By the way, for the first time in world cinema a precedent was recorded with the participation of Okhlobystin, when an active priest played the main role in the film (Stanislav Libin’s film “Conspiracy”, the role of Grigory Rasputin).

Doctor Pilyulkin

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (49)

There are doctors who are known to every child from early childhood, in addition to their personal children's therapists: these are Doctor Aibolit and Doctor Pilyulkin from the fairy tale “The Adventures of Dunno and His Friends.” These doctors are probably destined to outlive all the most famous fictional and non-fictional hero doctors. After all, a good, wise Russian fairy tale lives on for centuries, and its heroes enter our lives practically with mother’s milk.

Doctor Pilyulkin from “The Adventures of Dunno” is a responsible little man in whose hands enormous power is concentrated. It is he who has to decide who will go on the next trip and who is contraindicated for medical reasons. However, the restless Dunno almost always eludes the doctor in charge and runs away somewhere very far, sometimes even to the Moon. Apparently, even without doctors, Dunno has the health of an astronaut that one can simply envy.

Dr. Aibolit

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (50)

And finally, the most famous doctor. Ask any child or adult who Dr. Aibolit is - and he will answer you without hesitation. True, Aibolit is a doctor for animals, that is, he is a veterinarian. But his human qualities, medical ethics and great desire to help suffering animals, which knows no obstacles, can be the envy of any most skilled modern doctor.

Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, Head of the Organ Transplantation Department of the Russian Scientific Center for Surgery named after Academician B.V. Petrovsky RAMS. Under his leadership, two fundamental directions were developed: liver transplantation for severe diffuse diseases and treatment of extensive focal liver lesions using extremely large radical resections.

S.V. Gauthier has the greatest personal experience in Russia in performing cadaveric liver transplantation and is the only surgeon performing related liver transplantation. His experience exceeds 140 operations.

He is the author of an original technique for transplanting the right lobe of the liver from a living related donor, which he performed for the first time in the world in November 1997. This technique has been patented and has now become widespread throughout the world. The results of liver transplantation performed at the Russian Scientific Center for Surgery of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences correspond to the most successful foreign programs, and in the field of related transplantation the results are superior to foreign ones.

Through the efforts of S.V. Gauthier and the team he heads, the only transplantation center in Russia has been organized and operates on the basis of the Russian Scientific Center for Surgery of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, providing the country's population with an independent type of transplant care on a federal scale - liver transplantation. A new direction that is successfully developing in this center is liver transplantation in pediatrics, including patients in the first year of life.
S.V. Gauthier is the only surgeon in Russia who performs liver transplantation for children.

S.V. Gauthier has the greatest experience in Russia in performing extensive and extremely large liver resections for giant tumors, having unique results on the survival of patients - adults and children. It successfully combines the capabilities of liver surgery with various transplantation technologies, allowing to expand the scope and increase the radicality of the operation. He is responsible for the only operations in Russia on autotransplantation of the liver stump after extremely large resections, as well as on prosthetics of the inferior vena cava as part of an extended liver resection.

In 2000, S.V. Gauthier headed the organ transplantation department organized at the Russian Scientific Center for Surgery of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, which, in addition to the liver transplantation department he headed, included the kidney transplantation department and the hemodialysis laboratory.

In February 2002, he became the first surgeon in Russia to perform a multi-organ transplantation - a simultaneous transplantation of the liver and kidney into one recipient, and in October 2003, for the first time in the world, he performed a simultaneous transplantation of the right lobe of the liver and kidney from a living related donor. Under the leadership of S.V. Gauthier at the Russian Scientific Center for Surgery of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences began to develop a new clinical direction for Russia - kidney transplantation in young children, and the program of related kidney transplantation was resumed.

Since October 2002, S.V. Gauthier was the first in Russia to perform related transplantation of a fragment of the pancreas for type 1 diabetes mellitus in adults and children. Thus, for the first time in domestic practice, radical treatment of diabetes mellitus has been carried out.

The development of high technologies in the field of organ transplantation has contributed to scientific progress in the field of related disciplines - anesthesiology, resuscitation, perfusionology, etc. Unique fundamental scientific data have been obtained on the pathophysiological and morphological mechanisms of liver survival in extreme situations and its regeneration.

Under the leadership of S.V. Gauthier liver transplantation has evolved from an experimental operation that is exclusive to Russian practice into a routine procedure performed weekly with a predicted positive outcome. Professor Gauthier combines his high surgical activity with successful scientific and teaching activities. He created a school of transplantologists developing various areas of organ transplantation, liver and pancreas surgery. Under his leadership, 12 candidate and doctoral dissertations were defended. Much attention to S.V. Gauthier devotes his time to training specialists from various regions of Russia and foreign countries, implementing a program to organize new transplant centers. Students of S. V. Gauthier have already performed the first operations on related liver transplantation in St. Petersburg and Ukraine.

S.V. Gauthier is the author of more than 350 published works in the field of surgery and liver transplantation, including chapters in the monographs “Clinical Transplantology”, “Introduction to Clinical Transplantology”, “50 Lectures on Surgery”, “Practical Hepatology”, “Manual of Gastroenterology” and etc. More than 150 works have been published abroad. S.V. Gauthier is a recognized specialist among foreign transplantologists and gives lectures and reports at international congresses and symposiums. The first series of 100 liver transplant operations in Russia was widely discussed by the medical community, and the results were highly praised.

Professor Gauthier actively popularizes the possibilities of organ transplantation among the population and the medical community, speaking in the press and on television.

S.V. Gauthier is a member of the Council of the European Society of Transplantology, a member of the board of the International Association of Hepatological Surgeons of Russia and the CIS countries, a member of the International Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association, a member of the International Association of Gastroenterologists and Surgeons.

Laureate of the Government of the Russian Federation Prize, Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, Academician of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the 1st Medical Faculty of the I Moscow Medical Institute. I.M. Sechenov.
Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov is one of the founders of the organization of perinatal fetal care in Russia. Under his leadership, the latest methods for assessing the functional state of the fetus and mother in various types of obstetric and extragenital pathologies were introduced into obstetric practice. Using modern highly informative methods for studying systemic hemodynamics (echocardiography, Doppler), the pathogenesis of gestosis at the preclinical and clinical stages and the features of its clinical course in modern conditions were studied. Four types of maternal hemodynamics during gestosis have been identified. An algorithm for examining pregnant women at high risk of developing gestosis, a differentiated approach to the prevention of this pathology, an algorithm for examining pregnant women with gestosis, indications for early and emergency delivery, a differentiated approach to antihypertensive therapy in the postpartum period have been developed and implemented.
On the initiative of Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov, the features of fetal hemodynamics in fetal growth restriction syndrome of various origins, long-term results of the physical and psychom*otor development of newborns were studied. The developed algorithm for examining pregnant women with fetal growth restriction syndrome and substantiating the indications for early delivery made it possible to significantly improve the long-term results of children's development.
Based on an in-depth study of fetal hemodynamics during postterm pregnancy (Doppler study of blood flow in arterial and venous vessels) of the fetus, early diagnostic and prognostic criteria for fetal hypoxia were developed and labor management tactics were substantiated.
Using Doppler research methods, the mechanisms of pathogenesis of systemic hemodynamic disorders in pregnant women with arterial hypotension and arterial hypertension were studied. The basic principles of drug correction of maternal and fetal hemodynamic disorders have been developed and substantiated.
A new modification of the cesarean section operation has been developed and implemented, which has significantly reduced the time of surgical intervention and intraoperative blood loss. A detailed study (transvagin*l echography, dynamic laparoscopy, hysteroscopy) of the features of the course of the uncomplicated and complicated postoperative period was carried out. A new tactic for managing endometritis after cesarean section has been developed.
Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov is the initiator of the development of a new branch of gynecology in our country - minimally invasive surgery. He performed the first successful operations using the latest methods (miniscopy) for purulent inflammatory diseases of the uterine appendages.
Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov made a great contribution to the problem of surgical treatment of genital endometriosis, endometrial hyperplastic processes, uterine tumors using laparoscopy and hysteroresectoscopy. Alexander Nikolaevich Strizhakov was the first in Russia to introduce the method of vagin*l hysterectomy for tumors without disturbing the anatomy of the pelvic floor.
The accumulated clinical experience allowed A.N. Strizhakov to develop a method of dynamic prolonged sanitation of the abdominal cavity for gynecological peritonitis using a laparoscopic cannula.
A.N. Strizhakov enjoys high authority and well-deserved respect in the medical and scientific world as a scientist and an excellent surgeon. A.N. Strizhakov pays great attention to the development of pedagogical science. In numerous scientific publications, he raised issues of improving teaching in higher education, including fundamental issues of postgraduate training of specialists.

Syrkin Abram Lvovich was born in 1930 in Moscow, in the family of a prominent domestic hygienist, Professor L.A. Syrkina. In 1948, after graduating from high school, he entered the I Moscow Medical Institute named after I.M. Sechenov, who graduated in 1954. All further clinical, scientific and pedagogical activities of Abram Lvovich are connected with the Department of Faculty Therapy of the First Moscow Medical Institute, now the Moscow Medical Academy named after I.M. Sechenov, on which he went through the traditional path as a resident, graduate student, assistant, associate professor and, finally, professor.
The traditions of the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic, the oldest therapeutic clinic in the country, inherited by its leaders and employees, Abram Lvovich’s teachers - academicians Vladimir Nikitich Vinogradov, Zinaida Adamovna Bondar, Professor Vitaly Grigorievich Popov, were brought up by A.L. from a young age. Syrkin has qualities that have always distinguished the best representatives of domestic clinical medicine - dedication to serving the sick person, a high sense of responsibility to future generations of doctors, to whose education Abram Lvovich devoted decades, the focus of scientific activity on problems that are most relevant clinically.
The first steps of the scientific activity of A.L. Syrkin were devoted to the study of edema syndrome in cardiorheumatological practice. In 1960, he defended his candidate's dissertation on the topic “Rate of Na24 resorption from the skin in rheumatism and rheumatic heart defects.” In the early 60s A.L. Syrkin was one of the first to draw attention to the great potential of the method of electropulse therapy for cardiac arrhythmias and begins active development of this problem. The result of a number of years of hard work were clearly formulated principles for selecting patients for the EIT procedure, preparing for its implementation, and the cardioversion technique itself, as well as the principles of subsequent patient management. The research results were reflected in the doctoral dissertation of A.L. Syrkin, as well as in the monograph “Electropulse treatment of cardiac arrhythmias in a therapeutic clinic” (co-authored with A.V. Nedostup and I.V. Mayevskaya), published in 1970, for many years which is very popular among domestic cardiologists.
Further scientific and clinical activities of A.L. Syrkina is largely devoted to coronary heart disease and, in particular, myocardial infarction. By the beginning of the 70s, the first cardiac intensive care unit in Moscow, created at the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic of the First MMI in 1959 by Academician V.N. Vinogradov and his students, expanded to a multi-bed intensive care unit, and since 1976, after the clinic moved to a new building, the department of coronary heart disease began to function there. Since then, for almost 30 years, Abram Lvovich Syrkin has been directing the work of these two divisions of the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic, which in 1998 received the status of the cardiology clinic of the I.M. MMA. Sechenov, whose director was appointed Professor A.L. Syrkin.
Over the years, Abram Lvovich has successfully developed many of the most pressing problems in this area of ​​cardiology, including aspects of the variants of the clinical course of myocardial infarction, its complications, treatment of heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, and thrombolytic therapy. Particular attention should be paid to the work carried out in collaboration with a team of specialists in the field of applied mathematics, led by Academician I.M. Gelfand, and devoted to the issues of predicting the course of myocardial infarction and its complications. During this work, not only specific clinical problems were solved, but also fundamental issues of using mathematical methods in clinical medicine (formalization of the description of the patient, clinical situation, decision making, etc.).
The unique long-term experience of the country's first cardiac intensive care unit, headed for many years by Professor A.L. Syrkin, played a major role in the formation and development of the intensive care cardiological service of Russian healthcare.
The results of work in this direction are reflected in the monographs of A.L. Syrkin “Recurrent myocardial infarction” (together with A.I. Markova and L.V. Rainova) and “Myocardial infarction” (second edition, significantly revised and expanded in 1998).
In total, Abram Lvovich Syrkin published over 250 scientific papers. He generously passes on his versatile skills as a clinician and scientist to his many students: 30 Ph.D. theses were defended under the leadership of Abram Lvovich.
For many years, A.L. Syrkin has been leading a scientific student circle. Many former members of the circle became first-class doctors, candidates of science, employees of the country's leading clinical institutions, including the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic named after V.N. Vinogradova.
In his daily pedagogical work (lectures, seminars), A.L. Syrkin is distinguished by his desire to combine the solidity of the traditional pedagogical principles of the Vinogradov clinical school with the use of new methodological techniques - the development of new types of teaching aids, including elements of programming, training simulators.
Many years of experience as a clinician, combined with organizational skills and rich scientific knowledge, are used with maximum impact by A.L. Syrkin in his work as Chairman of the Commission on Clinical Diagnostic Instruments and Devices of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, Member of the Board of the Moscow Therapeutic and Cardiological Societies, Head of the Cardiology Department of the National Research Center of MMA named after I.M. Sechenov. Medical talent, rich clinical experience, high erudition as a scientist and teacher, dedication in everyday work, genuine intelligence made Abram Lvovich Syrkin widely known and respected both in the medical and scientific community, and among countless patients not only in Moscow, but throughout our country .

Diseases have existed as long as humanity, which means that at all times people have needed the help of a knowledgeable specialist. Ancient medicine developed gradually and came a long way, full of big mistakes and timid attempts, sometimes based only on religion. Only a few of the masses of ancient people were able to snatch their consciousness from the clutches of ignorance and give humanity great discoveries in the field of healing, described in treatises, encyclopedias, and papyri.

Medicine of Ancient Egypt

Ancient Egyptian medicine became the cradle of knowledge for doctors of Ancient Rome, Africa, and its origins lead to Mesopotamia, which already had its own medical practitioners in 4000 BC. Ancient medicine in Egypt combined religious beliefs and observations of the human body. Imgotep (2630-2611 BC) is considered the first doctor and founder, although Egyptologists have only recently proven the reality of his existence: for many centuries he was considered a fictitious god. This man was a genius of his time, like Leonardo da Vinci in the Middle Ages. The Egyptians gained basic knowledge about the human structure through embalming the dead - even then they knew that the heart and brain were the most important organs.

Possession by evil spirits, demons and the intervention of gods were considered supernatural causes: methods of exorcism among the lower strata of the population were in great demand and existed thanks to the priests. Also used various recipes with bitter herbs - it was believed that this drove away spirits. In total, there were about 700 ancient recipes in the medical arsenal, and almost all of them were of natural origin:

Vegetables: onions, dates and grapes, pomegranate, poppy, lotus;

Mineral: sulfur, clay, lead, saltpeter and antimony;

Animal parts: tails, ears, ground bones and tendons, glands, sometimes insects were used.

Even then the medicinal properties of wormwood and castor oil, flax seed and aloe.

The main sources for research into ancient medicine in Egypt are papyri, inscriptions on pyramids and sarcophagi, mummies of people and animals. Several papyri about medicine have survived to this day in their original condition:

  • The Brugsch Papyrus is the oldest manuscript on pediatrics. Includes teaching about the health of children, women and methods of treating their diseases.
  • Ebers Papyrus - talks about diseases different organs, but at the same time contains many examples of the use of prayers and spells (more than 900 recipes for diseases of the digestive system, respiratory and vascular systems, diseases of the eyes and ears). This scientific work has long been considered a medical encyclopedia of ancient healers.
  • Kahuna papyrus - includes a treatise on gynecology and veterinary medicine, while, unlike other scrolls, it contains virtually no religious overtones.
  • Smith Papyrus - Imgotep is considered its author. It describes 48 clinical cases of traumatology. The information varies - from symptoms and research methods to treatment recommendations.

In ancient medicine in Egypt, the first scalpels and tweezers, speculums and catheters were used. This speaks of the high level and professionalism of surgeons, even if they were inferior in skill to Indian doctors.

Basic Medicine of India

Indian medicine of ancient times relied on two authoritative sources: the code of laws of Manu and the science of Ayurveda, which originates from the Vedas - the oldest sacred texts in Sanskrit. The most accurate and complete retelling on paper was written by the Indian doctor Sushruta. It describes the causes of diseases (imbalance of the three doshas and gunas that make up the human body), recommendations for the treatment of more than 150 ailments of various types, in addition, about 780 medicinal herbs and plants, information on their use is provided.

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (87)

When diagnosing, special attention was paid to the structure of a person: height and weight, age and character, place of residence, field of activity. Indian healers considered it their duty not to treat the disease, but to eradicate the causes of its occurrence, which puts them at the top of the medical Olympus. At the same time, surgical knowledge was far from perfect, despite successful operations to remove gallstones, caesarean section and rhinoplasty (which was in demand due to one of the punishments - cutting off the nose and ears). About 200 surgical instruments were inherited by modern specialists from healers from India.

Medicine divided all remedies according to their effects on the body:

Emetics and laxatives;

Exciting and calming;

Sweatshops;

Stimulating digestion;

Narcotic (used as an anesthetic in surgery).

The anatomical knowledge of the doctors was not sufficiently developed, but at the same time the doctors divided the human body into 500 muscles, 24 nerves, 300 bones and 40 leading vessels, which, in turn, were divided into 700 branches, 107 joints and more than 900 ligaments. A lot of attention was also paid to the mental state of patients - Ayurveda believed that most of all diseases come from improper functioning of the nervous system. Such extensive knowledge - as for the ancient medicine of India - made the healers of this country very popular outside its borders.

Development of Medicine in Ancient China

Medicine of the Ancient East originated in the fourth century BC; one of the first treatises on diseases is considered to be “Huang Di Neijing,” and Huang Di is the name of the founder of the Chinese trend in medicine. The Chinese, like the Indians, believed that a person consists of five primary elements, the imbalance of which leads to various diseases, this was described in great detail in the Neijing, which was rewritten by Wang Bing in the 8th century.

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (88)

Zhang Zhong Jing is a Chinese doctor, the author of the treatise “Shan Han Tza Bing Lun”, which tells about methods of treating fevers of various types, and Hua Tuo is a surgeon who began to use sutures in abdominal operations and anesthesia with opium, aconite and cannabis.

To treat various diseases, doctors even then used camphor, garlic, ginger and lemongrass; among mineral rocks, sulfur and mercury, magnesia and antimony were especially welcome. But in the first place, of course, was ginseng - this root was idolized and many different preparations were made on its basis.

Chinese doctors were especially proud that the prevalence of a rapid pulse indicated an overly active nervous system, while a weak and intermittent pulse, on the contrary, indicated its insufficient activity. Chinese doctors distinguished more than 20 types of pulse. They came to the conclusion that every organ and every process in the body has its own expression in the pulse, and by changing the pulse at several points, one can not only determine a person’s illness, but also predict its outcome. Wang Shu-He, who wrote the Treatise on the Pulse, described all this in great detail.

China is also the birthplace of acupressure and acupuncture. Historical texts tell about the healers Bian-tsio and Fu Wen, the authors of treatises on these methods. In their works they describe several hundred biologically active points on the human body, by influencing which any disease can be completely cured.

The only weak link in ancient Chinese medicine is surgery. In the Celestial Empire, methods for treating fractures were practically not used (the affected area was simply placed between two wooden planks), and bloodletting and amputation of limbs were not practiced.

Father of Medicine

This is considered to be Hippocrates (Greek Hippocrates), an ancient Greek doctor of the 17th generation, who lived in 460 BC and laid the foundation for the development of medicine in Ancient Rome. The famous promise of doctors before taking office - the “Hippocratic Oath” - is his brainchild. The father of the great physician was Heraclides, also an outstanding scientist, and Phenaret’s mother was a midwife. The parents did everything so that their son would have fame at the age of twenty good doctor, and also received initiation into the priesthood, without which there could be no question of quality practice in the field of medicine.

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (89)

Hippocrates in search of different successful methods traveled to many countries of the East for treatment, and upon returning home, he founded the first medical school, putting science, not religion, at the forefront.

The creative heritage of this genius is so enormous that the permanent publisher of his works, Charterius, spent forty (!) years printing it. More than a hundred of his works are collected in a single “Hippocratic Collection”, and his “Aphorisms” are still in great demand.

The most famous doctors of the old world

Many of the greatest doctors of ancient medicine contributed something of their own to this science, giving their ancestors ideas for thought, observation and research.

1. Dioscorides, ancient Greek physician of the 50th century AD. e., author of the treatise “ Medicinal substances", which was the leading textbook on pharmacology until the 16th century.

2. Claudius Galen - ancient Roman naturalist, author of numerous works on medicinal plants, methods of their use and making preparations from them. All water and alcohol infusions, decoctions and various extracts from plants still bear the name “galenic”. It was he who began testing on animals.

3. Harun al-Rashid - Arab ruler who was the first to build a public hospital in Baghdad.

4. Paracelsus (1493-1541) - Swiss physician, who is considered the founder of modern chemical medicine. He was critical of Galen and all ancient medicine in general, considering it ineffective.

5. Li Shizhen - specialist in the field of medicine of the Ancient East, Chinese doctor of the 16th century, author of “Fundamentals of Pharmacology”. The work, consisting of 52 volumes, describes about 2000 medicines, mainly of plant origin. The author strongly opposed the use of mercury-based tablets.

6. Abu Bakr Muhammad al-Razi (865-925) - Persian scientist, naturalist, he is considered a pioneer in the field of psychiatry and psychology. The author of this outstanding doctor is the famous “Al-Hawi” - a comprehensive book on medicine, revealing to the world the basics of ophthalmology, gynecology and obstetrics. Razi proved that temperature is the body's reaction to illness.

7. Avicenna (Ibn Sina) - a genius of his time. Originally from Uzbekistan, he is the author of the “Canon of Medical Science” - an encyclopedia from which other healers studied the art of medicine for several hundred years. He believed that any disease can be cured with proper nutrition and a moderate lifestyle.

8. Asclepiad of Bithynia - Greek physician who lived in the 1st century BC. The founder of physiotherapy (physical education, massage) and dietetics, urged his contemporaries and descendants to maintain a balance between the health of body and spirit. I took my first steps in what was something fantastic at that time.

9. Sun Simiao - Chinese doctor of the Tian dynasty, who wrote a 30-volume work. “The King of Medicines” was the name of this genius, who made a significant contribution to the development of medicine. Pointed out the importance of nutrition and the right combination of foods. The invention of gunpowder is also his merit.

How and what was treated in ancient times

The medicine of the ancient world, despite all the genius of famous doctors, was quite terrifying. However, judge for yourself. Here are just a few interesting facts about treatment methods:

1. The method of scaring away and averting the disease was actively practiced in Ancient Babylon: in order for the disease to leave a person, they fed him and gave him rare rubbish, spat on him and gave him blows. Such “treatment” often led to new diseases (which is no wonder).

2. In Egypt, under King Hammurabi, medicine was a rather dangerous business, since one of the king’s laws promised death to the healer if his patient died on operating table. Therefore, spells and prayers were used more often, which were described on 40 clay tablets.

3. Egyptian priests left the sick person to sleep in the temple; in a dream, a deity was supposed to appear to him and announce the method of treatment, as well as the sin for which he was punished with illness.

4. The surgery was equally impressive. Ancient Greece. Entire performances of operations were staged here, in which a made-up doctor portrayed the god of medicine, Asclepius. Sometimes in the process of action, patients died - rather from long, high-flown tirades than from the insufficient skill of the would-be doctor.

5. The widespread “falling” disease was treated with dope, henbane and wormwood.

6. In Egypt and Mesopotamia, holes were often drilled into the skull (sometimes even several) to relieve the patient from migraines caused by an evil spirit.

7. Tuberculosis was treated with drugs made from the lungs of foxes and snake meat soaked in opium.

8. Theriac (a drink of 70 ingredients) and the philosopher’s stone were considered a panacea for all diseases.

Middle Ages: Decline of Medicine

The most significant achievement of medicine in the Middle Ages was the introduction of a compulsory license for healing: this law was first adopted by King Roger II of Sicily, and was later taken up by England, forming in the 15th century the Guild of Surgeons and Barbers (who often performed bloodletting on patients) and France with the College of St. Como. The doctrine of infectious diseases and health care methods began to clearly emerge and take shape. Guy de Chauliac, a village surgeon of the 14th century, actively promoted the prevention of “charlatans” from treating people, and proposed new methods in working with fractures (traction with a weight, the use of a sling bandage, suturing the edges of open wounds).

In the Middle Ages, constant hunger and crop failures were common, which forced people to eat spoiled food, while the “cult of the clean body” was out of favor. These two factors contributed to the development of infectious diseases: fever, plague and smallpox, tuberculosis and leprosy. Unbreakable faith in healing properties“holy relics” and witchcraft (while the knowledge of contemporary doctors was completely denied) provoked an even greater development of diseases, which they tried to treat with religious processions and sermons. The mortality rate was several times higher than the birth rate, and life expectancy rarely exceeded thirty years.

The influence of religion on medicine

In China and India, belief in gods did not particularly interfere with the development of medicine: progress was based on natural observations of man, the influence of plants on his condition, and methods of active analytical experiments were popular. In European countries, on the contrary, superstition and fear of God's wrath cut down at the root all attempts by scientists and doctors to save people from ignorance.

Church persecutions, curses and campaigns against heresy were on a gigantic scale: any scientist who tried to speak out in favor of reason and against the divine will regarding healing was subjected to cruel torture and various types of execution (auto-da-fe was widespread) - to intimidate ordinary people. The study of human anatomy was considered a mortal sin, punishable by execution.

Also a huge disadvantage was the scholastic method of treatment and teaching in rare medical schools: all theses had to be unconditionally accepted on faith, sometimes without solid ground, and the persistent denial of acquired experience and the inability to apply logic in practice nullified many of the achievements of geniuses modernity.

Where were doctors trained in ancient times?

The first medical schools in China appeared only in the 6th century AD; before that, the art of healing was transmitted only from teacher to student orally. The state-level school first opened in 1027, with Wang Wei-yi as its leading teacher.

Famous surgeons of the 20th century. Famous doctors: in Russia, in the world, in history (92)

In India, the method of oral transmission from teacher to student was preserved until the 18th century, and the selection criteria were extremely stringent: the doctor had to be an example of a healthy lifestyle and a high level of intelligence, know perfect biology and chemistry, have an ideal understanding of medicinal plants and methods of preparing potions, be an example to follow. Cleanliness and neatness came first.

IN Ancient Egypt Healing was taught by priests in temples, and corporal punishment was often used for careless students. In parallel with medicine, calligraphy and rhetoric were taught, and each trained doctor belonged to a special caste and temple, which received a fee in the future for treating the patient.

Mass training in medicine developed on a large scale in Ancient Greece and was divided into two branches:

1. Croton Medical School. Its main idea was the following thesis: health is a balance of opposites, and illness should be treated with the opposite in essence (bitter - sweet, cold - warm). One of the students of this school was Acmeon, who opened the auditory canal and optic nerves to the world.

2. Knidos school. Her basic knowledge was similar to the teachings of Ayurveda: physical body consists of several elements, the imbalance of which leads to disease. This school continued to improve the work of Egyptian doctors, and thus the doctrine of disease symptoms and diagnosis was formed. Euryphon, a student of this school, was a contemporary of Hippocrates.

Doctor's oath

The oath was first written down on paper in the 3rd century BC by Hippocrates, and before that it was passed down orally from generation to generation for quite a long time. It is believed that Asclepius was the first to say it.

The modern Hippocratic Oath is already far from the original: its words have changed many times depending on time and nationality, the last time it was greatly distorted in 1848, when it was announced in Geneva new option speech. Almost half of the text was cut out:

About the promise to never have abortions or castration procedures;

Do not perform euthanasia under any circ*mstances;

A promise to never have intimate relations with a patient;

Under no circ*mstances should you lose your dignity by refraining from illegal actions;

Give part of your income for life to the teacher or school that trained the doctor in medicine.

From these points it is clear how much modern medicine has lowered the moral and ethical standard of a doctor as a highly spiritual person, leaving only basic functions - providing assistance to the suffering.
