The perinatal center (Kazan) meets the latest requirements of modern medicine. It is located next to the obstetrics building of the Republican Clinical Hospital. The building consists of six floors. Up to 10,000 patients residing in the Republic of Tatarstan will be admitted annually in the new center.

The new center allows you to solve an existing problem. The entire period of nursing of small patients will take place in one institution.

What is in the arsenal
The perinatal center of the RCH (Kazan) has modern incubators available. This incubator provides a baby who is born prematurely with a comfortable stay, imitating the womb. The incubator makes it possible to fully develop a weak child's body.
For babies with a very small weight (up to 1 kg), such an adaptation is extremely necessary. The child is placed in it immediately after birth. Creating a natural environment allows to nullify all the existing complications that arise in the process of the baby’s life. Being in it, the newborn does not receive stress from light, noise and cold. The incubator maintains the desired level of temperature and humidity. Information about the baby’s well-being is recorded by the computer of the device. All data on the state of the child’s body are displayed on the monitor.
Obstetric rooms
In total, ten halls are designed for women in labor. Fathers are also allowed to attend. Also, five operating rooms are involved for the birth of babies. They perform surgical operations for women who are shown operative delivery.
The Perinatal Center (Kazan) has the status of a child-friendly hospital, where children born on time without any pathologies will be with their mothers immediately after birth. This allows the baby from the first minutes of his life to feel maternal attention and love. The climate of psychological unity of the medical staff and the family is being created. It should be noted that childbirth in the new center is accepted free of charge.
The Perinatal Center (Kazan), the most positive reviews about it, provides patients and medical staff with comfortable conditions. Architects and designers worked hard on the design of classrooms and chambers.
The main task of the center
The main task facing the center is the development of fetal medicine. This industry involves conducting operations on the fetus directly in the womb, which will greatly improve the baby’s health, and in some cases save his life. All specialists working in this field have undergone serious training in Spain.
The creation of such an institution will reduce the incidence and mortality rate among newborns, as well as protect the health of expectant mothers.
What departments does the new perinatal center consist of?
The new perinatal center (Kazan) includes several departments.
Among them should be noted:
- department in which reception and diagnostics are carried out;
- Department with obstetric rooms (100 beds);
- resuscitation for newborn babies (16 beds);
- department for women who have an abnormal pregnancy (24 beds);
- Department with pathological abnormalities in infants (6 beds);
- three halls for operations.
What time is the latest center valued?
The cost of such an institution as the perinatal center of RBC (Kazan) is about 1.12 billion rubles. More than half of the amount (about 600 million rubles) was allocated from the federal budget. The second source of funding was the budget of republican significance. According to the head physician of the center I.R. Galimova, 100 million rubles were added by the President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov.
Grand opening
The opening of the new perinatal center in Kazan took place in a festive atmosphere on September 14, 2016. The event was attended by President of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov, Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Olga Golodets, Prime Minister of Tatarstan Ildar Khalikov, Assistant to the President of the Republic of Tatarstan Leyla Fazleeva, Minister of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan Adel Vafin, Kazan Mayor Ilsur Metshin and other officials.
Government Level Assessment
Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets and President Rustam Minnikhanov examined all the premises of the perinatal center: the unit for operations, the obstetric physiological department, maternity rooms for individual purposes, the intensive care unit for newborns, the ward for mother and child sharing.
Olga Golodets noted that the construction of a new institution was the solution to a very large task, and the idea was fully successful. The Deputy Prime Minister of Russia also stated that the center meets the modern requirements of medicine. It is equipped with high-tech equipment and has become a major contribution to the development of healthcare not only in the Republic of Tatarstan, but also in the Russian Federation as a whole.
According to Golodets, in terms of reducing child mortality, Tatarstan has reached the first lines of world indicators. The Deputy Prime Minister hopes that the institution will be able to give children and their mothers happiness and health, and will also help many families in Tatarstan solve problems.
How is the perinatal center (Kazan) of the Republican Clinical Hospital evaluated by the President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov ? The opening of such an institution, in his opinion, provides opportunities of a completely new level. The center is able to qualitatively change the lives of many people.
The head of Tatarstan also noted that the idea of ​​building a new medical center in Tatarstan had arisen for a long time. Republic is prosperous, therefore, objects of this magnitude in this region are rarely planned. Nevertheless, thanks to Olga Golodets, Tatarstan was included in the list, and for a fairly short period of time architects and builders realized a very successful idea.
According to the president, today such cities as Kazan and Naberezhnye Chelny are leaders in terms of fertility. Every year in Tatarstan 57 thousand babies are born. Therefore, the region needs objects of this kind. Institutions of this level for medical professionals create completely new working conditions and provide ample opportunities. The latest centers are designed to improve the quality of life of citizens of Tatarstan. Rustam Minnikhanov expressed special thanks to Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.
At the end of the opening, the President of Tatarstan and the Deputy Prime Minister of Russia handed over the keys to new ambulances to all medical institutions of the republic.
Assessment of medical staff and technical preparedness
Olga Golodets highly appreciated the level of technical readiness of the center. The deputy vice-premier raised the question that the institution used the latest domestic technologies. As noted by the Minister of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan, Adel Vafin, more than half of the medical equipment was produced in Russia.
The President of the Republic of Tatarstan also noted that the institution is equipped with innovative medical equipment, and the doctors of the perinatal center (Kazan) are specialists of the highest category. They have extensive theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of obstetrics and gynecology. Most of them had internships abroad.
Regional Telemedicine Center
After going around the medical institution, Olga Golodets presented a new telemedicine center. A video conferencing system consists of two components. It allows you to keep in touch with hospitals of district significance and give medical advice at a distance. The system also includes a single information base in which all the data about the patient, the results of his examinations and the tactics of subsequent treatment are present.
A worthy replacement
According to the Minister of Health of Tatarstan, Adel Vafin, the new perinatal center (Kazan) under the Republican Clinical Hospital will be able to replace the maternity wards at city ​​hospitals No. 4 and No. 7. Maternity wards, functioning separately, will be closed. The reason for their abolition is that in such institutions there are no resuscitation units, as well as intensive care units, which are required in emergency cases. Such maternity hospitals do not have the proper technological equipment for nursing premature babies. They have neither incubators, nor apparatus for artificial respiration, nor the ability to provide babies with the necessary nutrition. According to the minister, institutions of this type should become the past of Tatarstan’s medicine.
