News of FBA EAC Committee on Healthcare, Pharmacy and Medical Equipment
FBA EAC Committee on Healthcare, Pharmacy and Medical Equipment, which was opened at the initiative of Mr. Li Shuobing, FBA EAC President, continues its work.
On November 11, 2022 Alexander Artyukhin, Head of the Committee, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Academician of the Russian Academy of Medical and Technical Sciences, took part in the International Conference on Cooperation of Industry, Universities and Scientific Research (Nanchang, China). He made a report on traditional Chinese medicine, its place and role in West European and, in particular, Russian medical tradition. Noting that due to the controversial, from the scientist's point of view, opinion of some representatives of the academic community that TCM in its methods of diagnosis and treatment refers to pseudoscientific premises and has a metaphysical nature, interest in traditional Chinese medicine in Russia has faded in recent years. At the same time, according to Alexander Artyukhin, TCM techniques have a high positive clinical effect based on his own medical practice. In this regard, he considers it necessary to complement and merge TCM techniques with the diagnostic and treatment approaches used by Western medicine.
Head of the Committee called for the creation of a joint Russian-Chinese certification center, which would be a tool for checking drugs entering the Russian market from China. On the one hand, this center could confirm the quality, assist in the official registration and promotion of medicines, and on the other hand, prevent the spread of counterfeit and falsified drugs.
Li Shuobing, President of FBA EAC, supports the initiative on popularization of traditional Chinese medicine in Russia. Mr. Li always required high standard of quality. When the Nature of Life TCM clinic opened in Moscow in 2015 with Li Shuobing's assistance, it was the first time an institution of this profile had received certification and all necessary licenses from both Russian and Chinese government agencies.
The main purpose of the FBA EAC Committee on Health, Pharmacy and Medical Equipment is to increase the opportunities of the peoples of the countries, whose representatives are members of the Association, to obtain information about advanced technologies, projects and trends in international medical practice. “TCM should be regarded as a civilizational asset of all mankind, which the Western world has yet to understand, comprehend and master. And then to enrich and complement existing treatment technologies, both in Russia and in other countries”[1], said Alexander Artyukhin, an academician, in his speech in Nanchang.
