Q&A
Dear Julia! Currently, in the Lipetsk region, there are restrictions on visits to hospitalized patients by relatives due to the current epidemiological situation for a new coronavirus infection. At the same time, in GUZ "LOPTS" it is possible to carry out partner childbirth if the partner complies with the following rules: 1. At the time of delivery, there should be no signs of acute respiratory viral infections (fever, catarrhal phenomena, etc.) 2. The result of lung fluorography on the hands, less than 1 year old 3. The result of PCR examination for COVID-19 on the hands (three days or less ago). It is also desirable to have a certificate of vaccination against COVID-19. 4. Availability of disposable clothing and clean replacement shoes Finally, the issue of the partner's admission to childbirth is decided by the responsible doctor on duty at the maternity hospital at the time of the patient's admission.
Dear Alyona! 1. You can enter the maternity hospital in your own clothes (a shirt, a bathrobe is not needed), after giving birth, the clothes are changed to our sterile ones and then only our shirts and bathrobes are issued until discharge. 2. Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 is necessary first of all for your health and the health of your baby! Make sure to do this if you haven't done it yet. We take a PCR test for COVID-19 only according to indications (in the presence of appropriate symptoms or in contact with a patient). 3. It is advisable to collect a bag in the maternity hospital according to the list on the website. Maybe not so strictly, but it is advisable to adhere. We give all the excess to our relatives. 4. A contract for the provision of paid services can be concluded at any time of pregnancy. At the latest - on the day of delivery. But keep in mind that our accounting department works only on weekdays from 08:00 to 16:00.
Dear Anna! Since our Perinatal Center gathers patients with high-risk factors for perinatal complications, these studies (echocardiography and neurosonography) are often carried out for newborns in the first 5 days after delivery. But all studies are conducted only according to indications, that is, not all newborns.
Dear Ekaterina! Only in 5 wards of the postpartum department (the total number of wards is 30) there are no refrigerators for maternity hospitals. For these wards - two refrigerators are in the corridor. In the department of pathology of pregnancy - 11 out of 14 wards are equipped with refrigerators. For the remaining three wards - two refrigerators in the corridor.
Dear Irina! Indeed, if a planned caesarean section is indicated, then the doctor of the antenatal clinic should: a. Determine the obstetric hospital where the operation will be performed; b. Coordinate the date of hospitalization for surgery with this hospital and give the pregnant woman a referral. If you have contractions before the appointed date, come with the contractions.
Dear Olga! This information is available on our website - at the top there is a link "What to take with you to the maternity hospital". There is no need for clothes for a newborn, we have a sufficient number of sterile diapers. But if you need to dress a newborn in something special (within reasonable limits) - you will be allowed to take it with you.
Dear Natalia! Contracts for any targeted training in medical specialties are concluded by the Health Department of the Lipetsk region. But if you want to work with us - first you need to contact our HR department to find out what areas we need and what exactly you want.
Dear Elena! Indeed, the exchange card of a pregnant woman remains in the medical card of the maternity hospital after childbirth. You can get copies of any primary medical documentation, for this you need to apply with a passport on a weekday from 8:00 to 16:00 to the administration of the GUZ "LOPTS". You write an application, and we issue copies.
Dear Svetlana! In the wards of postpartum departments, a comfortable temperature for newborns is maintained - 24-25 degrees, regardless of the time of year. To an adult, this temperature may even seem too high.
Dear Natalia! Yes, the father of the child will be allowed into the discharge room.
