Abstract

Because of the rapid development of medicine, a mismatch has been formed between the increased requirements for a modern military surgeon and the real level of his training. The reduction in hours of field surgery at universities, the abolition of internships, the general decrease in the length of studies in residency, the low involvement of hospitals in the civilian trauma system lead to insufficient training of a modern military surgeon. Based on the results of testing 16 operating military surgeons, analysis of training courses on damage surgery and field surgery available in Russia and the world, proposals for improving the training system based on the principle of separation of training are justified, including 1) mandatory basic training and continuing medical education, 2) passing certified courses in field surgery and damage surgery, 3) passing additional training courses in related disciplines, 4) regular secondment to trauma centers with a high flow of victims, 5) full - fledged training teamwork before being sent to the theater of operations.
