The main task of the new center is to provide round-the-clock emergency care to patients with acute cerebral circulatory disorders (stroke), acute coronary syndromes (unstable angina and myocardial infarction) and other cardiovascular diseases.
The hospital has 335 beds, of which 295 are for specialized medical care and 40 intensive care beds. If necessary, the center can be converted into an infectious diseases hospital with 415 beds.

For the first time in the North-West, it was possible to create a vascular center, which was designed and built taking into account all the logistics requirements for providing medical care to vascular patients, and not housed in a previously existing building. Here, all the requirements of the Procedures for providing medical care to patients with heart attack and stroke are met, the time from the moment of admission to the start of high-tech treatment methods is minimized, a complete closed cycle of medical care for the above-mentioned category of patients is formed

We keep a video recording of all video sources connected in the operating room. To be honest, I don't understand how we can work without it anymore. In my opinion, this has some advantages for both patients and doctors. First of all, these are video evidence, protection for the doctor and the patient. It is also the best tool for training other doctors and analyzing surgeries. But there is another important aspect — the video history of surgical interventions. For example, if we are talking about atherosclerosis, there is currently no cure for it. Often, the case is not limited to one surgical intervention, they are repeated. And here the problem arises – where can the surgeon see what happened to the patient before? I am in favor of making video recordings of operations available to all interested doctors, so that there is continuity of surgical interventions — like a medical history. The future lies not only in e-health, but also in a single video archive of surgical interventions
