Abstract

The main stages of the life and work of a military surgeon and anesthesiologist, Professor Boris Stepanovich Uvarov are presented. Professor B.S. Uvarov made an invaluable contribution to the formation and development of domestic military anesthesiology and resuscitation. After working for 12 years with his teacher, academician of the Academy of Medical Sciences of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics P.A. Kupriyanov, on whose initiative the first department of anesthesiology in our country was created, becoming his successor, B.S. Uvarov made every effort to establish domestic military anesthesiology and resuscitation. For 23 years he was the head of the department of anesthesiology and intensive care at the S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy, non-staff assistant to the chief surgeon (1964-1968) and deputy chief surgeon for anesthesiology and intensive care (1976-1986) of the Ministry of Defense of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. As a dissertation, scientific adviser or consultant, B.S. Uvarov completed 24 candidate and 7 doctoral dissertations in three main areas: 1) express diagnostics and monitoring of the condition of a patient in critical condition; 2) improving anesthetic and resuscitation care; and 3) organizing anesthetic and resuscitation care in the Armed Forces. He realized the problem of organizing anesthetic care in the light of the demands of military medicine. The implementation proposed by B.S. Uvarov, systems of anesthesiological and resuscitation care in the Armed Forces in peacetime, is reflected in the textbook «Anesthesiology and Resuscitation» (1979) and other published materials. Boris Stepanovich took an active part in the public life of the country, showing remarkable human qualities. Confirmation of the merits of B.S. Uvarov to his 100th birthday is the assignment to the B.S. Uvarov Department of Military Anesthesiology and Intensive Care of the S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy.
