The Roscongress Foundation’s ‘Healthy
Life’ Area has opened at the venue of the V
Eastern Economic Forum taking place on 4–6 September in Vladivostok. The project is being
integrated in to EEF for the first time.
“Health issues are a priority in any part of the
country but healthcare is of particularly importance in the Far East owing to
its vast expanses, uneven population distribution, specific living conditions,
complex transport infrastructure and its climate and geographical specifics. In
this connection, we focus particularly on correct territorial planning of
medical care, taking account of transport accessibility, development of medical
aviation and mobile medical care”, noted
Russian Federation Minister of Health Veronika Skvortsova at the booth’s opening.
“Today we are opening the ‘Healthy Life’ Area at
EEF. This is an important subject for the Russian economy and I am sure we will
continue supporting it. The Far East has its own specifics and we will talk
about this at all the EEF events and meetings”, Roscongress Foundation Director Alexander Stuglev
stressed.
Within the area, events are planned as part
of the ‘Healthy Life’ programme. In particular, EEF
2019 will see a new format for the business programme of the platform: speeches by a cardiologist, a
cardiovascular surgeon, the head doctor of the SMART CheckUp clinic Alexey Utin
on the topic “100 Years of Life: Myth or Reality?”, and the founder of the Big Heart Charitable
Foundation Olga Sergeenko on “Why cancer
isn’t a death sentence. Personal victory story”.
High-tech healthcare projects for improving
and increasing the people’s healthy
life expectancy will also be presented. For instance, a
new digital primary healthcare format called
“Smart mini-clinic” will
be presented. It combines offline and online examination by medical device
involving narrow specialists from remote partner clinics. The given format cuts
the cost of seeing patients, expands the medical functional compared to a
traditional polyclinic and offers a solution to the problem of the shortage of
accessible good primary healthcare.
Visitor to ‘Healthy Life’ Area can
take a DNA test in order to receive individual recommendations for their diet,
exercise and cosmetic procedures, undergo
cardio-vascular screening to identify heart attack and stroke risks, find out
their biological age and visit a healthy food bar. In the rest zone, visitors
may try out the Muse device, which transfer in real time the processes taking
place in the brain during meditation.
In
addition, the Area will host co-operation agreement signing ceremonies. In
particular, on 5 September the signing is planned of a memorandum of mutual
understanding on establishing in Russia a state-of-the-art ion therapy centre
between FGBU NMITs of radiology of the Ministry of Health of Russia,
International Medical Consulting Company LLC and the Japanese company Medical
Tourism Japan.
The V
Eastern Economic Forum is focusing particularly on healthcare. The business
programme includes discussions on, for example, the specifics of providing
healthcare in remote areas, introduction of new technologies in healthcare and
biological security, plus public health programmes in the Far East.
