Children's surgeon boqueria. Old age is "my years are my wealth" or. Here's something you don't want, but you need

There are specialists without whom it is simply impossible to imagine modern Russian medicine, and the country's chief cardiac surgeon, Leo Antonovich Bokeria, is certainly such an outstanding personality. Over the years of its successful and fruitful work he not only managed to bring domestic cardiac surgery to a fundamentally new level, but also to achieve worldwide recognition for their scientific works and achievements.

Cardiovascular diseases have become one of the most important problems of the 21st century. Every year, the number of deaths from heart disease is increasing, and the average age of patients is decreasing. This is affected by bad environment, low activity, the complex, exhausting rhythm of life for most people, bad habits, heredity and many other factors. So it's obviously important to develop areas of medicine that can help people with their many heart problems, and Leo Bokeria understood this many years ago.

Carier start

The talented doctor, inventor and researcher himself was born in 1939 and from early childhood he showed a craving for medicine. He was an excellent student and already at school he decided to receive medical education. Excellent academic performance allowed him to enter medical institute named after Sechenov, from which he graduated in 1965, enrolling in the graduate school of the same educational institution. Already at this time, in addition to gaining important practical knowledge, Leo Bokeria began to conduct his own research and offer to try out new, original methods of treatment.

In 1968, the doctor went to work at the Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery and began to work under the guidance of the most talented specialist A.N. Bakulev, whom he still considers one of the most outstanding medical professionals modernity. Here, a young surgeon not only receives the most valuable both practical and theoretical knowledge, but actually gets to the forefront of the fight against cardiovascular diseases. Soviet cardiac surgery was deservedly considered one of the best, and the institute where Leo Bokeria worked was the leading one in the country. Here he, with his supervisor and other specialists, faced the most difficult cases and situations. A huge amount of practice over time allowed him to become a first-class surgeon, but the most important thing was not even that. Here, a young specialist, an adherent of the experimental method and the most modern, innovative approaches, could implement all his many ideas.

Successful Research

It was Leo Bokeria who was the first in the country to become interested in the possibilities and prospects of hyperbolic oxygenation. In 1972, according to his drawings, the world's first experimental barotherapy room was created, in which pressure was increased. In this room, Leo Bokeria and his team performed the most complex operations on the hearts of patients with congenital heart defects. In his own words, all this was one big and complex experiment, which was based on a huge theoretical work.

Specialists could not foresee the consequences for sure, because they were the first in the world to use cardiopulmonary bypass in a barooperative room. The complexity of the work was also in the fact that after each operation, the doctors themselves had to carry out the decompression procedure in order not to provoke the development of decompression sickness, because for the human body, being in a pressure chamber is tantamount to diving to a depth of 25 meters.

Nevertheless, Leo Bokeria and his team successfully performed more than 200 operations in such conditions, and the results of the work were so outstanding that in 1976, together with colleagues, he received the Lenin Prize for his research. Also, thanks to this work, a little earlier, in 1973, he defended his doctoral dissertation on the topic "Hyperbolic oxygenation in cardiac surgery."

The development of modern medicine

In addition, the professor conducted a wide variety of research in the field of cardiac arrhythmias. It was he who was the first in the country to create the department of tachyarrhythmias in 1980, and formed completely new diagnostic methods. this disease. Detailed studies have made it possible to achieve excellent results and significantly increased the percentage of positive operations when working with people with heart defects, especially since Leo Bokeria made many improvements in practical terms.

To work with difficult patients, and first of all for high-quality diagnostics, the professor was one of the first to use the most modern equipment, over time he applied computer modeling and other technologies to achieve a deeper understanding of the problem itself and the possibilities of solving it.

In addition, Professor Bokeria is a famous inventor, and on this moment he owns over 150 different patents. His inventions are actively used not only in domestic, but also in world medicine.

Starting from 1994, Leo Bokeria became the director of the Scientific Center for Cardiovascular Surgery named after A.N.Bakulev, having steadfastly withstood all the difficulties associated with the lack of funding in the 90s. Largely due to his influence and work, modern Russian cardiac surgery is in such a developed state. According to Leo Bokeria himself, at the moment Russia has everything necessary equipment necessary to cope with any cardiovascular diseases. However, the professor is not going to stop there, and actively develops the direction, oversees the construction and organization of new research centers, continues to perform the most complex operations and happily shares his inexhaustible energy with everyone around him, both patients and colleagues.

Over the years, Leo Bokeria has performed thousands of successful operations and saved a huge number of lives, but he himself claims that there is still a lot of unknown in the heart, and modern medicine still has a lot to do in order to finally understand all the features of this most important organ.

Professional activity

L. A. Bokeria throughout his career actively and fruitfully used the experimental method. A number of operations and methods tested in the experiment were then successfully implemented in the clinic. it various operations remote control in barooperative, electrical isolation of the left atrium, denervation of the heart, modeling of heart defects of blue and pale types, etc. From latest methods- this is cryoablation, fulguration, laser photoablation, now widely used not only in the country, but also abroad. L. A. Bokeria actively uses computer methods in the diagnosis, modeling of the pathology of the circulatory system, gas exchange, and arrhythmias. Various nomograms, charts, tables used in the clinic were created. Unique is personal experience L. A. Bokeria operations on open heart with tachyarrhythmias - about 2000 cases. L. A. Bokeria is one of the founders surgical treatment cardiac arrhythmias - newest direction clinical medicine. Back in 1980, he created the country's first specialized department of tachyarrhythmias and implemented in clinical practice electrophysiological methods for diagnosing arrhythmias. A complex for non-invasive examination of patients with complex life-threatening arrhythmias was developed and implemented in the clinic, including the most modern diagnostic methods, surface mapping, ECG high definition, variability heart rate and others. He developed and introduced into wide practice new operations for the syndrome of premature ventricular excitation, over ventricular tachycardia and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. These are operations of resection and denervation of the sinus node with implantation of bifocal pacemakers in case of sinus arrhythmias and long QT syndrome, epicardial electrical impulse destruction in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, endocardial resection and cryodestruction in non-coronary ventricular tachycardias, operations for allorhythmias, with long QT interval syndrome, various operations for isolation of the atrioventricular node in nodal tachyarrhythmias, radical elimination atrial flutter, the most complicated operation"Labyrinth-3" for the treatment of atrial fibrillation.

Scientific activity

Every year, heart disease kills 300,000 people in Russia. More - only in Ukraine. And this figure cannot be reduced in any way. Bad ecology, unhealthy image life, constant stress, lack of highly qualified surgeons and the latest equipment These are the troubles of our day. Perhaps that is why the “Hero of Our Time” award in the “Scientist of the Decade” nomination was given by the readers of Novye Izvestia to someone who is trying to solve this problem with his own hands. We are talking about the country's chief cardiac surgeon, academician of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, head of Science Center Cardiovascular Surgery named after Bakulev Leo BOKERIIA.

Ordinary morning of an ordinary hero. At half past seven, Leo Antonovich was already on his feet. Cold and hot shower, healthy breakfast- cottage cheese with yogurt, and into the car. At half past seven, he is already driving up to the gates of the Bakulev center. In a spacious office filled with soft toys, Bokeria is not delayed - it's time for an operation. Despite his age (the doctor celebrated his 68th birthday last weekend), he performs 5-6 surgeries a day. Helps children in the morning, adults in the afternoon.

Putting on a sterile gown and cap, Leo Antonovich is transformed. There is intense concentration in the eyes. As the surgeon admits, even during many hours of surgery, he cannot think about anything except the patient, whose heart he holds in his hands. Only in the most difficult moments does he remember the voices of his children, which help him regain confidence and calm down.

Everyone who has ever been in the operating room with Leo Bokeria noted how accurately and deftly his hands fly, how debugged, his assistants understand by one nod of the head. A team of surgeons works like clockwork, like the heart of the master himself, which he has not checked for many years - there is no reason. Sport, proper nutrition, gymnastics, which he even practices in the operating room, and the inner light do their job. The attending physicians of Leo Bokeria, his daughter, are closely watching so that the reason does not appear. Both of them followed in the footsteps of their father: they became cardiac surgeons.

Everyone who has ever been in the Bokeria operating room notes the doctor's determination. In life, he gives the impression of a man who knows what he is doing. Leo Antonovich has long answered the main question for surgeons - does he have the right to take on the role of arbiter of fate? It has, because it is obliged to give people a chance. “I remember such a case. Grandfather found out that his newborn grandson was going to have a whole series of heart surgeries, and refused to give the child a chance, thinking that it could be very painful. I told him then and I will repeat now: no one has the right to deprive a person of his life! Even a few of her moments. As a doctor, I always proceed from these considerations,” says Leo Bokeria.

To give people a chance, he worked on a method called hyperbaric oxygenation, which made it possible to operate on practically inoperable children by placing them in a pressure chamber. For the sake of this very chance, he, risking his own health, performed more than 2 thousand surgeries under pressure, equal to pressure water at 25 meters depth. He earned the Lenin Prize and ... the Honored Submariner Prize. It was for this chance that he began to be the first in the country to implant defibrillators to prevent sudden death. It was for him that he spent years developing the newest direction in clinical medicine - the surgical treatment of arrhythmia. It was this chance that made him quite recently, in November, dare to implant an artificial left ventricle in a teenager. Again for the first time in the country...

“If medicine is surgery. If surgery is cardiac! - this is how the 17-year-old Leo, who arrived in Moscow from the Abkhazian town of Ochamchira, reasoned, choosing which university and which faculty he should enter. He has not departed from his principle even now. He only thinks in other categories: if he deals with the treatment of heart diseases, then their prevention too. If you work in medicine, then keep your finger on the pulse and public policy in healthcare. This was one of the reasons that Leo Bokeria headed the public organization "League of Nation's Health". Organization of football championships among schoolchildren in the regions, free diagnostics hundreds of people, lectures on a healthy lifestyle, helping young surgeons - this is just a small fraction of what Leo Bokeria is trying to find at least a couple of hours in a busy schedule of operations.

He is on friendly terms with both officials and legislators. But how! If he does not speak about the sore points of Russian healthcare, others will not be listened to at all. Leo Bokeria does not get tired of talking about the need to increase the amount of quotas for the treatment of heart patients. His constant headache- the problem of pediatric transplantology. Now, due to the imperfection of the legislation, it is actually prohibited. Meanwhile, in the West, a heart transplant from a child to a child saves hundreds of lives. Including thanks to the efforts of Leo Bokeria, a document allowing pediatric transplantation may appear in the coming months.

In general, Leo Antonovich always did everything himself. He himself repaired the unfinished building of the Bakulev Center, which he had to move into in the early 90s, he himself selected the staff for the clinic, he manages it himself. Subordinates say: strict but fair.

Surprisingly, with such a firmness of character, Leo Bokeria was never used to many things. Not accustomed to human grief. In a recent interview, he admitted that he could not forget the touching smile of a child who had recently been operated on. “The baby has a serious diagnosis - heart disease. The operation went through with complications. I had to operate again. Fortunately, everything worked out. But to this day, it’s in my head that this child smiled at us, and here we are ... It happens that something goes wrong, and then you suddenly begin to remember some details of the conversation with parents or relatives, or with the patient himself. So I'm not used to it."

Not only to failures, but also to victories, Leo Bokeria is emotional. He says that each recovery of the patient for him is an ordinary miracle. Many of those who operated, he still remembers. “It was about 20 years ago. A friend from Ochamchira comes to me and says: “We are going to us urgently, our guy is dying from a wound in his heart!” I fly to Georgia on an evening flight via Adler. I'm doing an operation, and in the morning I'm flying to Moscow. And I completely forget about it. Two years later I came to Ochamchira on vacation. The mountain river Galizga overflowed, which is very close to my house. The whole city washed up on the shore. They're watching. And only one person, the strongest, pulls out the floating cows from the river, fallen trees. As a tourist, I photograph everything. And suddenly he sees me, throws another cow - and rushes to me. He grabs it with dirty hands and throws it into the air. It turned out - the same guy to whom I sewed the heart, ”Leo told this story to reporters more than once with animation.

They say about the Bakulev center that here doctors never take bribes. This is the Boqueria rule. A bottle of cognac in gratitude - no more. For extortion from patients, he immediately dismisses. Although he appreciates his employees. He even plays football with them on Sundays. He says that all work conflicts are resolved by themselves, although it happens that they put trips.

And the surgeon likes to spend Sundays at the festive table. Like a real Georgian, he knows a lot about good wine and cognac. He says that alcohol (of course, in moderation) decorates our lives. He likes to make toasts, he can sing a Georgian romance. Bokeria is the keeper of family traditions. He has two daughters, two sisters and a wife. The male company is made up of a son-in-law and a 12-year-old grandson, with whom the grandfather communicates on an equal footing. AT New Year all his relatives gather in his house - at least thirty people.

Leo Bokeria himself does not undertake to list all his awards. There are many of them in the piggy bank - from the State Prize to the "Golden Hippocrates". Readers of Novye Izvestiya called him "The Hero of Our Time". However, the very word "hero" is not very suitable for Leo Antonovich. A hero is one who rests on his laurels, but he is still fighting. Against death on the side of life.

LeoBOQERIA-"NewIzvestia"

“A terrible thing for the heart is bad habits: smoking, alcoholism, overeating, sleeping when necessary, a disregard for the regime. A person should move more, sleep at the same time, even if he works in different shifts. It is better to exclude from food very fatty, with high content carbohydrate foods. There is a diet of astronauts, we call it the Kremlin diet. A good thing, because a person can not deny himself anything. The only condition if you want to maintain a normal weight or lose weight is to eat boiled fish and meat, and only fresh vegetables. And, of course, you need to exercise. You don't have to go to the fitness center simple gymnastics. In general, to maintain shape for a person who has passed the middle age, it is enough to walk one hour a week.

“Today it is difficult to meet a calm, balanced person who is confident in the future. Everyone is under some pressure. Even children experience permanent state stress, transmitted to them from their parents. This is not yesterday's or today's problem, it is a long-standing one.

“The main issue is the poverty and misery of Russians. Throughout the 19th-20th centuries and now, man mainly solves the problem of survival. I'm talking about the main part of the population. If we take the United States, Western European countries, then by and large people there are not worried about pressing problems, if, of course, they work. They have a roof over their heads, they do not think about what to eat or wear. They think about other things: about health, about quality products, about a sports club, about where to spend their holidays. All this is important for improving the health of each individual and the nation as a whole.”

In 1994 he was elected a full member of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences with a degree in cardiac surgery.

Social activity[ | ]

On June 28, 2005, the signature of L. A. Bokeria appeared under a letter in support of the verdict to the former leaders of Yukos. However, in February 2011, Bokeria told Gazeta.ru. Ru”, that “I did not sign anything against Khodorkovsky”, but put my signature under another text aimed at protecting the independence of the courts.

In January 2018, he again became a confidant of Vladimir Putin in the presidential elections on March 18, 2018.

Professional and scientific activity[ | ]

Throughout his career, he actively and fruitfully used the experimental method. A number of operations and methods tested in the experiment were then successfully implemented in the clinic: various remote control operations in the barooperative room, electrical isolation of the left atrium, cardiac denervation, modeling of blue and pale heart defects, etc. Among the latest methods are cryoablation, fulguration, laser photoablation, now widely used not only in Russia but also abroad.

Actively uses computer methods in diagnostics, modeling of the pathology of the circulatory system, gas exchange, arrhythmias. Various nomograms, charts, tables used in the clinic have been created. He performed about 2000 open heart surgeries for tachyarrhythmias.

He is one of the founders of the surgical treatment of cardiac arrhythmias - the latest trend in clinical medicine. In 1980, he created the first specialized tachyarrhythmia department in the country and introduced electrophysiological methods for diagnosing arrhythmias into clinical practice. A complex for non-invasive examination of patients with complex life-threatening arrhythmias was developed and implemented in the clinic, including the most modern diagnostic methods, surface mapping, high-resolution ECG, heart rate variability, and others. He developed and introduced into wide practice new operations for the syndrome of premature ventricular excitation, supraventricular tachycardia and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. These are operations of resection and denervation of the sinus node with implantation of bifocal pacemakers in sinus arrhythmias and long QT syndrome, epicardial electrical impulse destruction in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, endocardial resection and cryodestruction in non-coronary ventricular tachycardias, operations for allorhythmias, with long QT syndrome, various operations of isolation of the atrioventricular node with nodal tachyarrhythmias, radical elimination of atrial flutter, the most complex operation "Labyrinth-3" for the treatment of atrial fibrillation.

The main directions of scientific activity of L. A. Bokeria:

Gives great attention issues of protecting the professional safety of doctors, including doctors of risky specialties - neurosurgeons, cardiovascular surgeons, specialists in endovascular and abdominal surgery. The main task in this area considers the need to create an effective system legal regulation in healthcare. He is a member of the Coordinating Council of the Center for Medico-Legal Support medical workers” and actively cooperates with specialists from the Association of Legal Education, the Association of Russian Lawyers, the Association of Cardiovascular Surgeons, the Law in Healthcare association and other communities.

Scientific achievements[ | ]

  • L. A. Bokeria owns the country's first work on hyperbaric oxygenation. Original works were performed using hyperbaric oxygen therapy in resuscitation, transplantology and some other areas. He personally performed almost two hundred heart surgeries under high pressure in the barotherapy room. A number of operations on a "dry" heart, as well as with a combination of hyperbaric oxygenation and cardiopulmonary bypass, were the first in surgical practice.
  • He was one of the first in the world to perform simultaneous operations for the correction of congenital, acquired heart defects, or coronary heart disease, combined with life-threatening tachyarrhythmias. These operations have significantly expanded the possibilities of radical treatment of previously inoperable patients. For the first time in the country, he underwent implantation of cardioverter-defibrillators to prevent sudden death.
  • He made a great contribution to the problem of coronary heart disease - the most common disease. Introduced into clinical practice new methods of reconstruction of the left ventricle in patients with post-infarction aneurysms of the heart, which are a new type of physiological operations in patients with a very high operational risk.
  • He is the initiator and pioneer of minimally invasive heart surgeries, including the use of a three-dimensional display of the surgical field to improve the safety of the operation itself.
  • The great merit of L. A. Bokeria is the development, together with physicists, the implementation of the first operations and the introduction into practice of transmyocardial myocardial revascularization using a domestic carbon dioxide laser, and subsequently an excimer laser in the most severe contingent of patients with coronary artery disease with a distal form of coronary artery disease, when it is impossible to perform coronary artery bypass grafting. A new step in this newest problem was the intraoperative use of TMLR in coronary artery bypass grafting.
  • The name of L. A. Bokeria is associated with the opening of a new chapter in domestic cardiac surgery - the formation of approaches to the surgical treatment of critical (terminal) heart failure. He is a pioneer in the development of the concept of dynamic cardiomyoplasty in critical heart failure. He personally performed a large number of these operations, including for the first time in the world in children.
  • A special merit of L. A. Bokeria is the performance of the first in the USSR operations of fully implantable artificial heart ventricles (IVH), in particular, the Novokor IZHS.
  • He is a pioneer of a fundamentally new section of cardiac surgery - minimally invasive heart surgery in the USSR. He performed the first successful operations using the latest techniques in patients with congenital and acquired heart defects, with life-threatening arrhythmias, with coronary artery disease.
  • He is one of the initiators of the creation (so far the only one) of an automated cardiosurgical medical history, in the database of which there are more than 20 thousand patients.
  • He is one of the authors and developers of the pilot telemedicine project "Moscow - regions of Russia", the purpose of which is to conduct full-fledged consultations with the specialists of the Center using the entire volume of diagnostic information by local doctors. Today, within the framework of this project, teleconsultations are regularly held on the basis of videoconferencing, including from the operating room, with doctors from 16 Russian regions and Belarus.
  • Has more than 150 patents for inventions, utility models and rationalization proposals.
  • He is the editor-in-chief of scientific and practical journals:
  • "Annals of Arrhythmology",
  • "Creative cardiology",
  • "Bulletin of Lymphology",
  • "Clinical physiology of blood circulation",
  • "Children's diseases of the heart and blood vessels",
  • "Thoracic and cardiovascular surgery"

and the Bulletin "Cardiovascular Diseases".
