The event was led by the head of the department, PhD A. R. Alimbayeva, and department assistant E. E. Dairbekov. Residents of the specialty “Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation,” from the 1st and 2nd years, participated in the round table.

The main part of the event was a presentation prepared by 2nd-year residents, which visually demonstrated the differences between the old and new versions of the standard. Key changes were highlighted, including what was added, removed, and updated to improve the medical rehabilitation process.

Following the presentation, there was an active discussion involving all residents and faculty. Participants emphasized the significance of the changes for improving the quality of medical care and discussed issues related to their practical implementation in clinical practice.
