  • Title: [The prospects for improving medical care for minor casualties and patients in ophthalmology].
    Author: Danilichev VF.
    Journal: Voen Med Zh; 1993 Jul; (7):23-5. PubMed ID: 8249340.
    Abstract:
    As for modern war the casualty rate of ophthalmological minor wounded will be approximately 1.7% of all sanitary losses. The improvement of medical care to this category of patients will be possible if some organizational principles are observed: selection of these patients into a separate group in order to promote their rapid evacuation to the hospital for minor wounded (HMW); existence of physician-ophthalmologist at the stage of secondary care for qualified triage, immediate and holding care, and pre-evacuation procedures; application of modern ophthalmological facilities in field conditions; optic correction of sight in patients at HMW.
