[IMPROVING THE ORGANIZATION OF LABOR AND THE QUALITY OF MEDICAL CARE AT PARAMEDIC AND OBSTETRIC STATIONS].

In the provision of primary health care to the rural population, the role of paramedic and obstetric stations (FAP) is great. The purpose of the study is to develop a system of measures aimed at improving the quality of medical care provided at paramedic and obstetric stations. The study was conducted in 2019-2020 on the basis of 26 FAP of 12 central district hospitals (CRH) of the Republic of Dagestan. The organization of labor of 26 paramedics and 26 midwives during 1740 hours was studied by the method of time-lapse observation. The content of 16511 visits by the FAP population was analyzed. The expert evaluation method studied the quality of medical care to 445 patients on 7 FAP. The main work of FAP paramedics accounts for 74.5%, and for midwives - 76.3% of all labor costs. A significant share in the cost structure is occupied by preventive (22.9% for paramedics and 27.8% for midwives) and diagnostic and therapeutic activities (17% and 15.6%). There are high costs for transitions and relocations (17.3% and 14.1%) and for working with documentation (13.7% and 14.5%). In the structure of visits by the population of paramedics and midwives of FAP, for reasons of the greatest proportion are visits with therapeutic and diagnostic purposes (37%), followed by visits for medical appointments (32.8%) and preventive (23.9%). The quality of medical care provided by paramedics to patients with therapeutic diseases was inadequate in 23.8% of cases. Every third (35.7%) patient was treated with FAP unreasonably. Out of the total number of patients who were treated unreasonably on FAP, according to experts, 62.5% had to be treated in the CRH, 34.8% - in the district hospital (outpatient clinic).
