The Congress Agenda included plenary sessions, satellite symposiums, seminars and master-classes. At the session “Modern maternal facility under healthcare modernization” IFH/IBP MCH Clinical Care Specialist Dr. Oleg Shvabsky discussed “Modern trends in perinatology”. The Congress was featured by Public Hearings on Youth and Adolescent Gynecology where IFH/IBP MCH Reproductive Health Specialist Dr. Elena Sheshko presented.

The II Ural OB-GYN Congress was featured by one more remarkable event – expert luncheon.  It is a new mini-seminar format, brainstorming counterpart for vivid and informal discussions and specially tailored issues.   Our colleague Dr. Oleg Shvabsky was one of pioneers. According to his opinion, that format is favorable for communication and gives an opportunity to discuss issues with an expert individually and find solutions.
