Improving the automation of information support for medical rehabilitation and dynamic monitoring of the health of participants in wars and armed conflicts

An analysis of the experience of medical support of troops in the wars and military conflicts shows that their characteristic feature was and remains the constant improvement of the organizational forms of medical support for the troops aimed at optimizing the medical rehabilitation of the wounded and sick. The results of the analysis of medical support of troops during the Great Patriotic War showed that the composition and content of the sanitary minimum level for servicemen should be in constant accordance with the requirements for the level of professional training of servicemen. Organization of medical care for participants of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 and the Afghan conflict of 1979-1989 in the postwar period shows that the basis of all measures to monitor the health of war participants must be a system of active personal dynamic observation. Active dynamic monitoring of the state of health using automated information systems allows to solve the problem of restoring health among participants in wars and military conflicts at the optimal level, provides medical information necessary for assessing the health status of participants in wars, determining the scope and composition of medical and recreational activities. Active invitation of the patient, who is on dispensary supervision, makes it possible to conduct a comprehensive assessment of his health status. However, the effectiveness of the system of medical control over the health of war participants largely depends on the high degree of automation of information processes in the system of dynamic control over the health of a workable and efficient resource on a national scale. The implementation of the principles of dynamic monitoring of the health of participants in wars can be carried out through the practical implementation of Decision 36 of the Plenum of the Academic Medical Council with the Chief of the Main Military Medical Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation (1996). Special attention was paid to the necessity and urgency of the development and operation of an automated information system on the wounded and sick on the basis of the Military Medical Museum. At the same time, it is necessary that its electronic information module is located in the institution where the wounded and sick war veterans are kept in the hospital. At present, such an institution in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is an archive of military medical documents of the Russian Military Medical Museum.
