Our team, accompanied by the Heads of the operating unit and the anesthesiology department of the Emergency Hospital, visited the Central Clinical Hospital of the Northern Hospital District of France in Roubaix. During the stay we thoroughly studied the work of the operating and resuscitation units of the hospital as well as the technologies and organizational measures that our French colleagues use in their clinical practice. We also paid a partner visit to the office of TLV, a well-known French manufacturer of medical equipment.
