We have prepared the seventh issue of the Galenika Medical Journal for you!
In the issue before you, you will become acquainted with the latest works and experiences of leading experts from the countries in the region, in the fields of dermatology, psychiatry, cardiology, anesthesiology, pulmonology, general and orthopedic surgery, esophageal surgery, and more. In this issue, you will read papers written by: Aleksandar Simić, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Ehrenfried Schindler, M.D, Ph.D (Germany), Maja Šurbatović, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Kata Šakić Zdravčević, M.D, Ph.D (Croatia), Snežana Minić, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Nenad Lalović, M.D, Ph.D (Republika Srpska – Bosnia and Herzegovina), Goran Belojević, M.D, Ph.D (Montenegro), Čedomir Vučetić, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Dušica Simić, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Bojana Vujović, M.D (Montenegro), Dejan Simeunović, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Assoc. prof. Jelena Sotirović, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Assoc. prof. Maja Lačković, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), Assist. Jelena Janković, M.D, Ph.D (Serbia), and their associates.
We have also conducted accreditation of electronic tests prepared by the authors of the works we have published from the inception of the journal up to the present day. By the accreditation decision of the Health Council of Serbia and the Montenegrin Medical Chamber, each test has been assigned a specific number of points that you can use for the renewal of your license. In Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, it will be necessary for you to verify the certificates you receive by completing the tests with the relevant chambers, following the prescribed procedures of the health authorities of these countries, to recognize certificates which are acquired by attending accredited continuing education programs outside the home country.
We have also implemented the necessary changes to the platform for continuous medical education (akademijazakme.edu.rs), enabling doctors from the region to now take tests in their native language (Serbian, Macedonian, Bosnian, Montenegrin).
To take tests on the platform, it is necessary to create a user account by following the instructions provided, when you access the platform. Do it today – either on your own or call the on-duty administrator who will create an account for you! The on-duty administrator’s phone number is +381 / 60 3443361, and this service is available seven days a week from 8 AM to 10 PM. Registered readers can use the tests for free! On the final pages of this edition, you will find lists of tests available for use. The tests are accredited for all medical profession specialties, and you will be able to choose those that are relevant to the field you work in based on the topic. By scanning the QR code located next to the test name, you will receive more information about its content. Then, inform the on-duty administrator about the test you want to take, so that they can grant you access to the content of the selected test.
We are confident that through all the undertaken activities, we have significantly facilitated the process of accumulating points for license renewal for our readers, especially considering the approaching end of the year when this matter becomes particularly relevant.
For any additional questions, you can contact us by calling the following numbers: +381 11 6184998 and/or +381 60 1485511.
