The cancer treatment units at Santa Casa de Porto Alegre are now part of the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Network, to exchange knowledge, innovations, technologies and care protocols in the area, in addition to good management practices. With the exchange of information and experiences, the integration will expand the possibilities for Santa Casa professionals to work in caring for patients at Santa Rita Hospital, the institution’s specialized oncology unit, and the Nora Teixeira Hospital Oncology Center.
Santa Casa is the first health organization in Rio Grande do Sul to join the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Network, also present in five other Brazilian states. “We are a reference in highly complex care and in synergy with the importance of the social responsibility we carry out in society. This connection will be essential, not only to increase our quality of care, but especially for the development of new practices and protocols for the prevention and treatment of cancer, combining scientific capacity and the latest in high technology for the care of patients. our patients”, highlights the Medical and Teaching and Research Director at Santa Casa, Antonio Nocchi Kalil.
In addition to allowing the improvement of medical and care practices in the area of oncology, integration will be fundamental in promoting teaching and research activities, with the possibility of jointly carrying out clinical studies. Based on the experience of both organizations, the objective is to work for the technical-scientific development of oncology treatment, contributing to the improvement of health services throughout the country. Whether through face-to-face meetings or video conferences, the academic exchange will also enable the discussion of complex cases or new cases of cancer, as well as the debate on academic-scientific updates between professionals from the two organizations.
By joining the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Network, Santa Casa also brings to Rio Grande do Sul access to care protocols for chemotherapy, bone marrow transplantation, radiotherapy, palliative care and oncogenetics defined by Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein.
“Einstein seeks to promote access to quality healthcare for more and more people and has been expanding its operations in oncology and hematology through initiatives that combine care, teaching and research. This is an opportunity to share the knowledge and expertise acquired over the years with professionals from Rio Grande do Sul, always aligned with the mission of offering the best care to patients”, explains the Medical Director of the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Center, Sérgio Araújo .
Nora Teixeira Hospital Oncology Center
Focused on the care of private and private patients, the Oncology Center at Hospital Nora Teixeira, made possible by the Irineu Boff Family, began its formal operation this Thursday (14/12).
Located on the second floor of Nora Teixeira Hospital, the Oncology Center stands out for combining the quality of care characteristic of Santa Casa with the most current technology for cancer treatment in the world. “Oncology in Rio Grande do Sul now has one of the most modern treatment centers in the area, with access to the expertise of the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Network and a unique care structure”, highlights the medical director of Hospital Nora Teixeira, Fernando Lucchese.
Among the differences of the new Oncology Center, the following stand out:
Stereotactic or tomosynthesis biopsy system: the Nora Teixeira Hospital Oncology Center is the first organization in the South of the country to offer a system that allows 2D or 3D biopsies to be performed, through tomosynthesis, which improves definition, precision and biopsy time, in addition to considerably reducing radiation exposure. In addition to providing greater ease, precision and agility for professionals, the system offers greater quality and comfort for patients.
Trident HD X-ray System: State-of-the-art solution for analyzing sharp, highly detailed images for sample verification directly from the operating room or outpatient procedure. The images offer the quality necessary for making quick decisions, providing greater agility and security for the medical and care team.
Hair cooling system: the hair cryotherapy cap consists of a scalp cooling procedure that prevents or reduces chemotherapy-induced hair loss. Keeping your hair during the chemotherapy process can have a positive impact on the patient’s self-esteem and their relationship with treatment and healing, maintaining their privacy and confidence during chemotherapy treatment.
State-of-the-art ultrasound equipment: technology that guarantees higher quality procedures, as well as delivering faster and more accurate results, such as clinical precision with Image Fusion Prostate Biopsy, which uses tomography or magnetic resonance images to identify lesions in the prostate.
Santa Rita Hospital
A reference in prevention, diagnosis and treatment in the oncology area, Santa Rita Hospital is responsible annually for more than 130,000 outpatient visits, five thousand hospitalizations and eight thousand surgical procedures in the area. In its structure, it has a Cancer Prevention Center and a Multidisciplinary Clinical Research Center, in addition to the largest radiotherapy park in Brazil. Equipped with cutting-edge technologies and a highly qualified and specialized multidisciplinary team, it also offers molecular imaging diagnostic services – PET CT and Nuclear Medicine.
Leadership
With the presence of the Santa Casa provider, Alfredo Englert, and other members of the organization’s executive management, the events were also attended by Einstein leaders. Among them, Álvaro Caetano (Director of Einstein Oncology Services); Sérgio Araújo (Medical Director of the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Center) and Fernando Maluf (Member of the Management Committee of the Einstein Oncology and Hematology Center), among other directors.
