In order to improve the expertise and special skills of ENT doctors dealing with urgent cases, the curriculum of advanced medical training courses (the city of Donetsk) has been modified to include several stages: evaluation of the qualification of students; lectures, seminars, practical lessons. This helps ENT doctors to be better prepared when coping with urgent cases, which in turn leads to lower lethality rate and more successful rehabilitation of patients.

Clinical applications of videolaryngoscopy (VLS) and videolaryngostroboscopy (VLSS) in phoniatrics were investigated. Altogether 150 patients with functional and organic lesions of the larynx and 50 normal subjects representing "voice" specialties were examined. ⋯ VLS and VLSS can help identify functional and organic diseases of the larynx, document various pathological processes, evaluate the condition of the vocal apparatus, and compare pre- and postoperative laryngoscopic pictures. These methods can find application in training and therapeutic procedures for biofeedback purposes.
