00:00A master's degree that aims to train highly qualified doctors in the management of the
00:09fragile patient, a growing condition in our country, with a consequent increase in
00:14chronic and complex pathologies.
00:16The first master's degree in Italy on the rehabilitation of the fragile patient, instituted
00:22by the Instituto Maugeri and the University of Pavia, was born with this intention .
00:25The training path, prevention, care and rehabilitation of the fragile patient, will benefit patients, but not only.
00:32The master's degree will certainly bring benefits from an organizational point of view, because
00:38it is an activity that is carried out within the departments, so there will be the possibility
00:45for the health professions to confront each other, also with new students, and this
00:52in my opinion is an added value.
00:56According to the data of the Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatry, more than 65% of
01:02patients over 65 have at least two chronic and concomitant pathologies.
01:07The impact on the national health system is significant.
01:11Developing a culture of taking care of the patient becomes crucial.
01:16The main criticism, in my opinion, is more social than health, in the sense that there
01:22is an important loneliness, a difficulty of the families to manage these subjects, and
01:30at the same time we must develop a culture of solidarity and a culture of taking care
01:37of the fragile patient.
01:39The master's degree in management, care and rehabilitation of the fragile patient is
01:44a key element in the training strategy of the University of Pavia, in synergy with the
01:48MAUGERI Institute.
01:50A concrete demonstration of how collaborations between companies and universities can be
01:55confirmed positive also in the hospital field, in the training of new doctors.
01:59Universities, with the IRCS, must also do much more to bring the world of companies
02:04and companies around them closer.
02:06An example for everyone, in a city like Pavia, it is quite absurd that biotechnological
02:11laboratories try to get closer to us and try to take everything that can be from the
02:16Institutes of Health.
02:18So, on the one hand, we have to make them understand why they don't come, on the other
02:22hand, be available to do it, because it is a further step of great importance for the
02:26territory, for the institutions, but also for the young people, sooner or later.
