WEBINAR ON PULMONARY DISEASES
The first internet lecture (webinar) in the field of medicine was held in Belgrade on September 25 in the organization of the
company Hemofarm. The subject of this lecture, which was given by dr. Sava Nenić, a specialist in internal medicine and
the only subspecialist of the intensive care in our country, as well as the head of the intensive block until recently in the
Institute for Pulmonary Diseases in Sremska Kamenica, was the modern approach in the treatment of outpatient pneumonia
and its hospitalized treatment.
The significance of this lecture is also proven by the fact that pneumonia is one of the leading causes of death in today's
world, the most frequent cause of death among the infectious diseases, and dr. Nenić presented on this occasion the latest
findings about the treatment of this disease. He referred in the course of his lecture to world references in the diagnostics
and treatment of outpatient and hospitalized pneumonia, considering the the current medicine in the world is based on
facts.
Dr. Nenić spoke at the lecture about the more and more frequent problem of the resistence to antibiotics, i.e. the existence
of micro-organism species which are resistent to almost all currently used antibiotics. Dr. Nenić spoke also about the
irrational use of antibiotics, which complicates additionally this problem.
Antibiotics should only be used when there is a strict indication, whereas the length of the therapy should be as short as
possible – pointed out the lecturer.
According to him, new antibiotics which he uses in his work in the USA are ultra expensive and as such do not exist on our
market. Our doctors, according to him, often overuse these very significant medicaments, and a big problem is also the
frequently prolonged therapy.
It is therefore imperative to have continuous education and to keep pace with the new world trends.
90 esteemed doctors from clinical centers and hospitals in Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš, Kragujevac and Podgorica, as well
as representatives of respectable mass media companies followed this lecture via Internet.
The first webinar in the field of medicine organized in this way in Serbia confirmed Hemofarm's orientation towards
constant education both of the expert and the wider public. At the same time, this was just another example how
Hemofarm keeps pace with new technologies.
