Nuria Am (NA): Is there a “calling”, bearing that last name, because of your profession?
I think not necessarily, but I am passionate about it, it is a profession that I love and I carry it in my heart. From a very young age I walked the steps of the Foundation and I’m in different areas of the hospital, so I don’t know.
THAT: Why is Dorazón Day celebrated today?
Since 2000, September 29 is the World Heart Day. I think it has to do with becoming aware of what cardiovascular diseases are, taking care of cardiovascular health and the importance of all this, fundamentally for that reason.
According to science, these nine symptoms are indicators of vitamin D deficiency
THAT: Are people more aware today, than in the past, of what makes for a healthy heart life and the importance of good habits?
It’s a bit controversial, because is still the cardiovascular disease and ischemic heart disease the leading cause of death worldwidewith more than 17 million deaths per year.
I believe that we must be aware and not only control cardiovascular risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, not smoking, and having healthier lifestyle habitssuch as having a conscious, healthy and healthy diet, doing physical activity, having a good rest and, of course, managing the issue of stresswhich is something that is in the common denominator of every day of modern life.
René Favaloro: a shot in the heart
Alexander Gomel (AG): It’s almost what most of us don’t do, it’s difficult…
It is very difficult to do it, but we try to be aware to reduce these cardiovascular diseases, and not only in the population, but we must start in early childhood. In the gardens should be more aware and educate what the most common diseases are in the world, and that good habits help, not only to reduce but to control.
THAT: Compared to other countries, what is it like? In Argentina do we have more?
No, today is world day. Throughout the world, the most frequent cause of mortality is, in the first instance, heart diseases. In Argentina there are approximately 100 thousand deaths per year.
THAT: How do you think he is remembered today? Doctor Favaloro?
I think you remember it, and you try to remember it, like and great national herowhere with his coronary bypass technique, he gives many people a second chance and their hearts continue beating.
Luis Landriscina: “Favaloro must be worried, wherever he is”
Besides left an indelible legacy of values I think it is important that all citizens become aware, practice a little and be more honest, responsible, supportive, fundamentally those of us who work at the Foundation: 1,500 people, who do it from passion, and who the importance of the patient is above all things.
AG: There is a call for Malba tomorrow, tell us what it is about.
The sample is called Rene forever, will be exhibited at Malba from 1 to 8 p.m. It is a unique artistic exhibition, where there are 100 plaster hearts made by the artist Leandro Sivori, which were intervened by plastic artists and prominent personalities from Argentina such as Cynthia Cohen, Guillermo Francella, Susana Giménez and Kun Agüero.
The truth is that the list is endless and they are all very outstanding people and, precisely, it is become aware that art is part of health carebecause it has been studied that art as an artistic expression collaborates with the comprehensive well-being of people.
This sample will be exhibited only tomorrow, September 30, at Malba. Starting today, now The hearts are displayed in a digital catalog and whoever wants can be one of the ambassadors. To receive it you can do so through a purchase and all proceeds will benefit the Foundation.
René Favaloro: paradox of the doctor who saved millions of hearts while his own was breaking
Andrea Bisso (AB): The Favaloro Foundation has no subsidy or sponsorship, but is sustained through people’s donations. Where can they collaborate?
The The Foundation is non-profit, and everything that comes in is for human resources, infrastructure and medical equipment.
Health right now is in crisisworldwide and in Argentina more so due to inflation and the definancing of the sector.
René Favaloro said that “without social commitment you cannot live”
All those who want donate to the Foundation they can do it in fundacionfavaloro.org and help us to continue caring for patients in the best quality, because there are many people working, it is a highly complex center, where many surgeries are performed every day and many people are treated, and We are focused not only on high complexity but also preventive health care. We have to continue with that great legacy that René left.
