Simulation training plays an important role in the preparation of future naval surgeons. In this regard, nowadays in the department of naval surgery there is a training simulator, modernized on the model of the most modern diesel submarine. In contrast to the previous simulator it contains necessary devices for solving situational tasks with the use of telemedicine technologies. The simulator is equipped with sanitary stretchers and a tripod with medical melts. It allows to organize a military medical game with the introductory on transporting conditionally sick and injured both inside and outside the ship that improves the quality of preparing future naval surgeons.

At the Department of Navy Surgery, military students are educated according to the three main principles: adherence to the profile of the Department, emergency surgery under conditions specific for Navy, and continuing education. The Department educates in surgery academic years 4, 5 and 6 students of Faculty IV. The following disciplines are taught: «Faculty Surgery and Urology», «Hospital and Pediatric Surgery», and «Navy Surgery». Thematic navy surgery lessons are conducted at a training simulator reproducing the mess room of the modern diesel submarine «Varshavianka», which has been constructed at the shipbuilding enterprise «Admiralteyskiye Verfi». Special attention in training is paid to combined mechanical and hypothermic lesions, a theme of undoubtful applied value. NATO nations are currently intensifying their military activities inArctic. In response, we restore out navy base on Novosibirsk Isles, as President V. V. Putin has proclaimed. The staff members of the Department involved in medical services for the arctic convoys that travel toKotelnyiIslandconvey their experience to students at lectures and training sessions. To provide students, especially postgraduates, adequately with emergency patients, the Department makes use of other clinical bases, such as I. I. Dzhanelidze Research Institute of Acute Care, Hospitals No. 14, 17 and 38, and Oncological Dispensary of Leningrad Oblast. It should be noted that, whereas at the first two of the medical facilities emphasis is put on the tactics of abdominal emergency surgery under conditions prevalent in navy ships and divisions, emphasis at Hospital No. 14 is put not only on the theory of emergency care in cases of acute putrescent infections but also and even more on practical experience in local anesthesia. The key issue of military preparedness of navy ships medical services is the continuity of training in navy surgery.
