Abstract

Objective:  Ukraine is a young independent country in central Europe.  For a long time this country has occupied by Russian Imperia and USSR. That’s why medicine in Ukraine has a lot of problem now. First of all these problems are related with emergency medicine and trauma. Cherkasy emergency hospital works 24-hours a day and 365-days a year and of course has a lot of patients with abdominal and thoracic injuries. Without modern equipment or laboratory, we always find a way to do our best.  Now reform in medical is going but not all doctors and administrations want changing. Only fresh mind and international studying can help to be like better in medicine.
