Abstract

The article is dedicated to the memory of a Russian scientist, doctor, teacher, dean of the Faculty of Pediatrics, who stood at the origins of perinatal medicine from the standpoint of an innovative approach in diagnosis, therapy, prevention and training of future doctors. The aim of the article is to study the biography of the outstanding Russian scientist Maria Fedorovna Deshchekina, from the standpoint of a significant contribution to perinatal medicine. In the course of writing the article, comparative historical and analytical methods of historical and medical research were used using archival data from the 4th maternity hospital on Novatorov Street, house 3, Moscow, where Maria Fedorovna worked, memories of colleagues, students and relatives. The main results are the presentation of modern achievements in pediatrics on the foundations laid by Maria Fedorovna, who has high professionalism and innovative approaches. Medicine of the XXI century opens up wide opportunities in forecasting, prevention, therapy and rehabilitation. The modern stage of medical science development is based on powerful technological progress, advanced pharmacological research, breakthroughs in the field of genetics and nanotechnology. But behind the high achievements of the present are our dear Teachers, who laid the foundation for the future of medicine with their high professionalism. We should not lose these classical views, works, and approaches. The life and fate of the outstanding Russian doctor Maria Fedorovna Deshchekina is a vivid example of loyalty to the profession and service to people. In 2022, on the centennial anniversary of her birth, a conference was held and a book dedicated to the memory of Maria Fedorovna, a unique doctor, scientist, teacher, organizer, was published at the Federal State Educational Institution of the Russian Ministry of Health named after N.I. Pirogov. The founder of the conference is a student of Maria Fedorovna - Ilyenko Lidiya Ivanovna. Maria Fyodorovna’s life is closely connected with the 2nd MOLGMI (the Federal State Educational Institution of the Russian Ministry of Health named after N.I. Pirogov), the Department of Hospital Pediatrics and Maternity hospital No. 4. Moscow. She went from student to professor, head of the department, dean of the Pediatric Faculty. The results of her activities have developed into a certain concept, which we still adhere to. As Dean, Maria Fedorovna proved herself to be a talented teacher, psychologist and organizer, paying great attention to improving the pedagogical skills of teachers. It was during this period that methodological work was elevated to the rank of scientific and methodological, which led to a series of articles written in collaboration with the Department of Pedagogy. Neonatologists, obstetricians-gynecologists, neurologists and pediatricians know the name of Maria Fedorovna well, since she first described somatic manifestations of birth trauma and presented them in the form of syndromes. This classification is still in effect today and greatly facilitates the diagnosis. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that the name of Maria Fedorovna Deshchekina is associated with many innovations that later became traditional for Russian pediatrics.
