György M. Csákány (born: Budapest, Hungary, 25 April 1946; died 14 January 2022) was a physician specializing as an obstetrician-gynecologist, associate professor, National Chief supervisor specialist[1] and recipient of the Batthyány-Strattmann László award.[2]

Education

Csákány graduated from Semmelweis University in 1971. In 1975, he qualified as an obstetrician-gynecologist and worked in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Sport Hospital. He was awarded an academic scholarship to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University of Medical Sciences, where he worked under the supervision of Gáti István. His main professional interest was research on gestational diabetes. It was here that the working group was formed, which - in collaboration with internists, diabetologists, obstetricians-gynaecologists and paediatricians - provided care and treatment for gestational diabetic and diabetic mothers. The subject of his 1983 candidate thesis was the effect of placental circulation on fetal development in late gestational toxaemia.[3][4] His early scientific interest and activity is marked by his dissertation "The uteroplacental circulation in late pregnancy toxaemia", which got him the title of Candidate of Medicine in 1981.[5]

Carrier

In 1983, he received his Candidate of Medical Sciences and became the main Hungarian referent for obstetric statistics (OSZNI).[6]

Starting in 1994, he was the administrator and developer of the Hungarian obstetrics register known as the Tauffer Vilmos database,[7][8][9][10] and for over 30 years the main Hungarian referent for obstetrics statistics at the National Institute of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (OSZNI). Starting in 2002, he was the Head of the Obstetrics Department at the Jahn Ferenc South Pest Hospital and Clinic, pioneering in Hungary of births without the presence of a doctor when instead supervised and guided by an independent midwife in hospital conditions.[11][12][13][14] Because of this, he was awarded the title of honorary midwife by the Hungarian Midwives' Association.

In addition to the care and delivery of hundreds of diabetic pregnancies, he has been deeply involved in the diagnostic methods of diabetic pregnancies and the statistical processing of obstetric outcome indicators. In the book Perinatology Dialogue, edited by Professor Zoltán Papp et al., he wrote the chapter on Diabetes and Pregnancy,[5] in which he describes international and national perinatal mortality data, the working system of the care system developed by the task force, from preconception care to the issue of hospitalisation during pregnancy, the frequency and content of necessary visits, the timing and mode of delivery, and the time of delivery. In his publications and lectures, he has also constantly emphasised the importance of normoglycaemia of normoglycaemic metabolism and its fundamental importance.[5]

Awards

In recognition of his work, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Hungarian Order of Merit|Order of Merit of the Republic of Hungary in 2008, and in 2019 he received the most prestigious award in the Hungarian health care sector: the László Batthyány-Strattmann Prize for outstanding work in the development of healthcare.[15] He is credited with the creation of the so-called South Pest Model.

Personal life

Her father was György Csákány, Professor of Radiology; his mother Márta Csákány (born Steiner) was a dubbing director. Her sister is Zsuzsa Csákány, editor, widow of Miklós Jancsó, film director. His first wife was Dr Katalin Anna Bor, a radiologist. They had two sons together: Péter Csákány, computer scientist, and Dr Tibor Csákány[17], chief spinal surgeon and orthopaedic specialist at the National Spine Centre (OGK). His second wife was Ágnes Sarolta Éliás, a laboratory assistant.

Significance

Although Csákány was consistently opposed to home births because he considered one of his most important professional tasks to support unobtrusiveness and humanisation of institutional births within hospital conditions.[18][19] He was one of the developers of the professional and legal background of home births in Hungary.[20][21] Since 2006, midwives at the obstetrics department of the Jahn Ferenc South-Pest Hospital have been able to deliver babies that appear to be risk-free on their own, within the framework of the so-called South-Pest model developed by Csákány.[22]
