New temporary hospitals in Moscow accepted the first patients with COVID-19

Temporary hospitals at VDNKh and at the Moscow Automobile Trade Center (ATC) received the first patients with mild to moderate severity of coronavirus disease. This was reported on the website of the Moscow Department of Health.

According to the department, patients with mild or moderate disease are admitted to temporary hospitals. However, they also have intensive care units and ventilators.

The hospitals have an electronic system that helps all doctors to quickly receive a patient’s medical history, “bypassing the hard copy”. The patients themselves are given a QR code, by scanning which doctors can see the doctors’ appointments, test results and other information about the patient.

The department noted that the hospital at VDNKh is assigned to the city clinical hospital No. 24, and the ATC “Moscow” – to the city clinical hospital named after S.S. Yudin. Also in the capital there are temporary hospitals in the Krylatskoye Ice Palace (City Clinical Hospital No. 67 named after L.A. Vorokhobov) and on the territory of the Sokolniki Exhibition and Convention Center (City Clinical Hospital named after F.I. Inozemtsev), they were deployed in early October.
