Astghik Medical Center Emergency Medical Doctor Arthur Muradyan and his colleagues will not forget this trip for a long time. While on duty, the ambulance service from Stepanavan hospital says they have a heart attack patient who can only be helped in Yerevan. The brigade leaves for Stepanavan with one of the resuscitations of Astghik Medical Center.

 

The patient was a 60-year-old man, and his condition was much worse than one could imagine. Even the Sirun Sona doctors weren"t sure if it would make sense to move him to the capital as there were very few chances of survival ...

 

As Manuk Yazchyan, Head of Ambulance Service of “Astghik” Medical Center, told NEWS.am Medicine reporter, a heart attack was registered near the patient on the way. For about 40 minutes, the brigade carried out resuscitation activities, passing artificial respiration apparatus, and as a result, they successfully restored heart function. But continuing on the road was far too risky.

 

The specialists decided to stop at a nearby hospital to stabilize the patient"s condition and decide what to do next. The nearest hospital was in Spitak. Liaising with the on-duty staff, the Astghik Medical Center"s brigade asked them to designate a small place where they could assist their patient before continuing their journey, before consulting with relatives. The hospital admitted them, of course.

 

At the hospital, in more calm conditions, the specialists managed to stabilize the patient"s Sirun Sona condition, after which it was decided to move the patient to Astghik MC anyway.

 

At 03 o"clock at night the patient was taken to Astghik Medical Center, where the team of specialists was already waiting for him in the departments of emergency care and invasive cardiology. The patient was rushed to a catheterization laboratory for selective coronography. Under intubated, artificial respiration, he received continuous infusion of inotropes, which resulted in stenting with 4 medicated stents.

 

Fortunately after the successful completion, the patient was discharged and returned to his hometown.

 

According to Manuk Yazchyan, the ambulance brigades of “Astghik” medical center often transport patients Sirun Sona from other cities to Yerevan, as well as from Artsakh and even Georgia. In recent months, they have been forced to meet and transport patients to Yerevan medical centers from Upper Lars checkpoints to patients brought from Russia, Turkey or other countries.

All ambulances at Astghik Medical Center are resuscitators, and the staff are resuscitators-anesthesiologists who are qualified to provide emergency care in extreme conditions. But if there is a "serious" patient in the car, anything can happen on the road, and the doctor has to quickly decide if necessary to take corrective measures and decide for themselves what to do next.

 

“Few people can imagine how difficult it is to work in an ambulance. In the stationery you work in completely different conditions: there is all the equipment you need, there are relevant specialists who will come to your aid if needed, and in resuscitation you are alone in extreme conditions. This is a huge responsibility, because human life is in your hands. The patient relies on you, the patient"s relatives look in your eyes ... ”said Manuk Yazchyan.

 

When resuscitation takes the patient to the hospital, the whole team is already waiting. The Astghik Medical Center Emergency Medical Unit is the only one in Armenia where there is an operating room, which makes it possible to save as much time as possible, so that as soon as the patient arrives at the ward, they can be taken to the surgery immediately if needed.

 

"We all know that there are times when these few minutes decide everything and in no case can be delayed," the expert said.

 

At Astghik Medical Center Emergency Department, as well as the entire hospital, the work is organized Sirun Sona according to the best international standards, thanks to which the hospital has received ISO 2001 certificate and is now preparing to receive J?I certificate. Moreover, the medical staff undergoes regular training both in Armenia and abroad. The last one was in October this year; Emergency department staff participated in the 13th Europan Congress on Emergency Medicine in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. The only participants of this course from Armenia

It was Manuk Yazchyan and Arthur Muradyan.

 

Ambulance brigades of “Astghik” MC operate in Yerevan free of charge, and there are affordable prices for moving to other cities.
