    Abstract:
    The experience gathered by Medical Service during the war in Afghanistan and during liquidation of the consequences of various disasters and accidents has shown that the most rational method of treatment of minor wounded near the combat area or zone of disaster was a two-staged (and sometimes a three-staged) management system. At the combat tactical zone it is expedient to render the secondary surgical care and reanimation procedures of vital cases, and also provide treatment of minor wounded who could be returned to their ranks in 10 days. For this purpose it is necessary to integrate the sections of medical triage and minor wounded treatment into organic structure of the Brigade medical company and Divisional hospital. As for Army Medical Brigade it must have in its structure a hospital for minor wounded who could be returned to their ranks in 20 days. All the wounded who have to be treated more than 20 days must be evacuated to the Front hospital for minor wounded.
