ACTIVITIES OF THE CHIEF MEDICAL CERVICE ON AVIATION ACCIDENT PREVENTION
Abstract
Based on the content analysis of legal and legislative acts, as well as official documents of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation on the prevention of aviation accidents, the activity of the head of the medical service (aviation doctor) on the prevention of aviation accidents has been investigated. It has been established that in medical provision of flight safety, in order to prevent aviation accidents, the number of the most characteristic hazards is multiple of their number in all other types of support. At the same time, the number of main general measures to prevent erroneous, incorrect actions of personnel is also more than in other types of flight safety. The most frequently repeated factors dangerous in the medical support of flights are noted and the main general measures carried out by the personnel of the medical service of aviation units to prevent erroneous (incorrect actions) of the personnel are given. Conclusions were drawn on the low efficiency of concentrating efforts to eliminate flight accidents in certain areas of activity of the Chief of Medical Service of the Aviation Unit and on the expediency of complex impact on the whole set of factors that are elements of flight safety. It is shown that the work of the aviation doctor to prevent aviation accidents has a pronounced preventive direction of actions, in the process of professional activity the chief of the medical service emphasizes not only the state of health, but also the prediction of the functional state and efficiency of the pilot. It has been revealed that the basis for the effective work of the aviation doctor to prevent aviation accidents is the priority of measures aimed at increasing the role of the human factor, so it is advisable to emphasize in the training of the aviation doctor (chief of the medical service of the aviation unit) the formation of high mental stability, psychophysiological and moral-will qualities necessary for official activity.

ORGANIZATION OF MEDICAL SERVICE SAFETY OF FLIGHTS IN MODERN CONDITIONS
Abstract
An analysis of the organization of medical provision of flight safety was carried out. It has been established that the aviation doctor builds his work in a complex system of industrial relations. For the purpose of reliable functioning, it has strict regulations, so in its practical activities, the Chief of the Medical Service of the Aviation Unit must punctually comply with the requirements set out in the guidance documents. There is a detailed characteristic of medical provision of flight safety at all stages of their organization and carrying out. It is noted that the prevention of aviation accidents and incidents related to the violation of the health and performance of persons participating in flights includes a whole range of measures carried out by the medical service. Flight safety is shown to be a systemic concept with a pronounced preventive focus. The main link in solving practical tasks of medical provision of flight safety is the m ilitary aviation doctor (head of the medical service of the aviation unit), so he and his special training are subject to high requirements. The aviation doctor needs to be able to assess not only the state of health of the flight crew, but also its physical preparation, psychological stability, functional condition, reserves and, ultimately, its operability. Only professionally trained personnel can successfully solve the abovementioned set of organizational and medical tasks.

PRESERVATION OF PROFESSIONAL HEALTH AFTER EXPOSURETO INFECTING ACCIDENTAL FACTORS OF ACCIDENTS AND EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
Abstract
When eliminating indoor accidents and emergencies, toxic gases - such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen cyanide, aldehydes and acrolein - pose the greatest danger, as well as a concomitant lack of oxygen. Recently, there is growing evidence that in the body of employees who are professionally involved in the elimination of accidents and emergencies, a cumulative accumulation of poisons arises from the effects of combustion products on the body. Carcinogenic substances were discovered in the smoke of fires, inducing the development of malignant tumors in the human body. These include: benz(a)pyrene, vinyl chloride, nitrosamine, formaldehyde, the concentration of which significantly exceeds the permissible norms. One of the most dangerous cumulative poisons are dioxins. These compounds are fundamental factors in the pollution of the biosphere, and fires are one of the important sources of dioxin release into the environment. The reason for the toxicity of dioxins is the ability of these substances to fit exactly into the receptors of living organisms and suppress or alter their vital functions. Dioxins, suppressing the immune system and intensively influencing the processes of cell division and specialization, provoke the development of cancer. Dioxins also invade the complex, smooth functioning of the endocrine glands. Interfere with reproductive function, dramatically slowing puberty and often leading to female and male infertility. To select and justify the most promising ways to manage the professional risk of firefighters, a sanocentric approach to studying the effects of smoke on firefighters seems appropriate. The essence of the approach is that not only the danger of death and accidents due to fire should be taken into account, but also the possible long-term biological effects of acute and chronic effects of smoke on the health of firefighters, which has both medical and social significance.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF MILITARY CONFLICTS AND THEIR IMPACTON MEDICAL CARE
Abstract
This article is devoted to the study of the main distinguishing features of military communications, as well as their impact on medical support. In the course of the research, information on the planning of medical support in the conditions of military conflicts was studied, analyzed and generalized. In the course of the research work, the main problematic issues were identified in the planning of medical support for military conflicts, while special attention should be paid to the work of preparing the medical service for the performance of its intended tasks. It was revealed that during the period of military conflicts personnel problems may arise, as a result of the fact that some medical specialists refuse to travel to the combat zone. In the combat units of medical units and subunits, secondment of medical personnel from inpatient hospitals and units of constant readiness for their staffing is required. In military conflicts, treatment and evacuation measures are organized based on the inpatient treatment base on a territorial basis, and the provision of specialized medical care is organized in several echelons. The absence of full-time guard and defense units in the medical units and units necessitates their deployment near guarded military command posts. The magnitude and structure of sanitary losses can vary significantly. The medical service is a source of replenishment of the losses of troops and, thereby, strengthens its role in times of military conflict.

MODERN WATER TREATMENT FILTERS FOR INDIVIDUAL USE IN THE FIELD
Abstract
In accordance with the theoretical fundamentals of prevention of diseases of servicemen caused by the water factor, the directions and content of medical control and state sanitary and epidemiological surveillance of water supply at points of permanent deployment of troops are presented. The regulatory and legal base regulating the directions of achieving sanitary and epidemiological well-being by organizing a reliable and safe centralized water supply to the population (troops) is given. Laboratory quality control of drinking water and water sources for microbiological, virological and parasitological indicators is carried out by specialists of sanitary-epidemiological institutions, using the appropriate methodological arsenal. Special attention during sanitary and epidemiological surveillance and medical control is drawn to the organization of sanitary protection zones in accordance with the requirements of SanPiN 2.1.4.1110-02. It is noted that the legal and property relations of legal entities, associated with the protection of water sources, the development, approval and maintenance of sanitary protection zones are complex and need further improvement, including upgrading the status of sanitary protection zones for water sources to the level of specially protected natural territories by adopting a special federal law, or appropriate amendments to water, sanitary and environmental legislation. The main control preventive functions of the medical service of military units and sanitary-epidemiological institutions during the design, construction, acceptance and operation of water supply facilities in military camps are substantiated. It is shown that in the chain “vodokanal-regulatory authorities-consumer” existing in each garrison, an important link is the consumer, who is proposed to be considered, as an important and promising link capable of raising the quality control of drinking water, as a product to the proper level. Attention is focused on the predictive role of hygienic diagnosis of risk factors for the deterioration of the health of consumers of water.

MODERN METHODS FOR ASSESSING THE VALUE OF DAILY ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF SERVICEMEN. THE IMPORTANCE OF ASSESSING THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF SERVICEMEN IN THE ARMY OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Abstract
One of the achievements of technological progress in the twenty-first century can certainly be considered a reduction for a person (especially for residents of large cities) the need to engage in heavy physical labor daily. To further improve the system of organization of food supply of the armed forces of the Russian Federation it is necessary to have objective information about the actual nutrition and the level of motor activity of the personnel of the armed forces (population of the Russian Federation). The paper describes modern methods for assessing the value of daily energy consumption of a person, as well as determining the type of predisposition to motor activity, based on the analysis of the genome, promising ways to determine the energy consumption of soldiers. In assessing the physical fitness of personnel, three main factors are taken into account. Firstly, this is the total amount of physical activity. Its intensity has an upper limit, individual for each person. Above it, physical performance first ceases to increase, and then decreases. Secondly, this is the presence of a wide range of reactions to the same level of physical activity, which can be manifested by the occurrence of injuries and the failure of a significant part of the trained contingent. Thirdly, this is the adaptation of the musculoskeletal system to severe physical exertion, which usually occurs in two stages, which must be taken into account to prevent excessive physical exertion.

THE VARIOUS ACTIVITY FIELDS SPECIALISTS-OPERATORS PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL STATUS CHANGES IN CONDITIONS OF LONG SEALING
Abstract
The article presents the research results of psycho-physiological state specialists, operators logical, sensory and sensory-motor profile, as well as medical monitoring of microcli-mate parameters (temperature, humidity), gas environment (oxygen, carbon dioxide), in conditions of a long way out to sea. Under supervision were 20 people. The survey was carried out in three stages (at the beginning, in the middle and at the end of a long trip to the sea) on a set of techniques-SAN, psychophysiological and clinical-physiological techniques, functional tests. The results obtained at each stage of the survey were carefully analyzed, compared with each other, and the dynamics of changes in the indicators of functional status for the entire period of professional activity was revealed. Despite the rather comfortable living conditions (habitability parameters did not exceed the permissible indicators) for all specialists, for the entire time of going to sea, the subjects underwent multidirectional changes in the indicators of the physiological state, however, pronounced changes that could lead to poor performance were not detected. Secondly, the various characteristics of the functional state change in different directions and with varying degrees of severity due to the action of a variety of habitability factors and professional activities. Thirdly, the specific features of professional activity affect psychophysiological indicators, and this should be taken into account when planning and conducting medical rehabilitation for specialists of various profiles.

EXPERIENCE IN IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW TECHNOLOGY OF PREPARATION AND EARLY PRIMARY PROSTHETICS AFTER LIMB AMPUTATION IN REHABILITATION OF VICTIMS AT TRAUMAS AND WOUNDS OF PEACE AND WAR TIME. POSSIBILITIES OF APPLICATION OF IMPORT-SUBSTITUTING TECHNOLOGIES IN CLINICAL PRACTICE
Abstract
The article presents the experience of introducing a new preparation technology and early primary prosthetics after amputation of limbs in the rehabilitation of victims of injuries in peacetime and wartime and the possibility of using import-substituting technologies in clinical practice. The problems of primary prosthetics as an integral part of medical rehabilitation of patients after amputation of the lower limb are very relevant in many countries of the world due to the increased terrorist threat and a large number of local conflicts and road transport and occupational injuries. Regulatory documents establish the terms of early prosthetics up to one year after amputation. The technology of early restoration of the ability to move independently contains several successive stages of the coordinated work of the clinics of the Military Medical Academy and the G. A. Albrecht Center. Rehabilitation measures in the clinics of the Military Medical Academy with the participation of specialists from the G. A. Albrecht Center provides an example of successful interagency collaboration that promotes successful early rehabilitation of critically ill people. The developed technique of early prosthetics can be used to form a mobilization reserve in hospitals of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

SOLDIER’S HEALTH AS A MEDICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SOCIAL PROBLEM
Abstract
The health of servicemen is not only a medical and biological category, but also a psychological and social one. Performance of the military personnel of the biological and social functions can be interpreted as manifestations of health. From the correspondence of life attitudes, claims and manifestations of health, one or another degree of well being-physical, mental and social-is formed. In this regard, it can be argued that the health of the soldier is a complex medical, psychological and social phenomenon and its preservation should be carried out from a systemic perspective at these levels. The concept of “health” does not have a universally accepted unified interpretation, is characterized by the ambiguity and heterogeneity of the composition. According to the definition that was given in the preamble of the Charter of the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1948, health is a condition of a person who is characterized not only by the absence of diseases or physical defects, but also complete physical, mental and social well-being. It can be concluded that health is an integral characteristic that reflects the influence of various conditions (both external and internal environment) on the success of adaptation and professional activities of military personnel. The health of a serviceman is a complex medical-psychological-social phenomenon, and its preservation should be carried out from systemic positions at the indicated levels.

SPECIFICS OF INTERNAL PICTURE OF HEALTH OF THE MILITARY PERSONNEL
Abstract
The following components can be distinguished in the structure of the personal semantic system “internal picture of health” in servicemen: cognitive, emotional-evaluative and behavioral. Taken in the system, these structural components realize information and regulatory functions, as well as the function of emotional reinforcement. The strategic task of military medicine in the field of preserving and strengthening the health of military personnel as a psychological and social phenomenon is the formation of their personal system of meanings “internal picture of health”. It should be noted that the transformation of the psychological and social content of the phenomenon of “health” into the meaning of the life of a particular soldier is possible only with a personality-oriented semantic system “internal picture of health”, which should become the core and generalized dynamic semantic system responsible for the general orientation of life as a whole. The strategic objective of military medicine in the field of preserving and strengthening the health of a serviceman as a psychological and social phenomenon is the formation of a personal system of meanings “internal health picture” of resource-pragmatic and personality-oriented levels in conjunction with the improvement of their vitality at the psychophysiological and socio-personal levels. The tactical task of military medicine in the field of preserving and strengthening health as a psychological and social phenomenon is the formation of active dynamic semantic system of readiness for optimization of vitality among military personnel.

ASSESSMENT OF SATISFACTION OF MILITARY PENSIONERSBY SOME TYPES OF MEDICAL AID
Abstract
In modern conditions, the provision of medical care to people of older age groups is an important task of the state. The life expectancy and working ability of our pensioners directly depends on this. Therefore, the study of various aspects of the provision of medical care to military pensioners is relevant and important. To collect information, the questionnaire method was used. The satisfaction of military retirees with dental care was evaluated on the basis of a study of questionnaires specially designed at the Department of Automation of Management of the Medical Service (with military medical statistics) of the Military Medical Academy. The questionnaire contained questions characterizing the criteria of openness, accessibility, comfort of the conditions for the provision of services. Military pensioners had to evaluate their satisfaction with the work of the dental clinic and organizational issues. On the basis of the multidisciplinary clinic of the S. Kirov Military Medical Academy, patients at the dental clinic underwent anonymous questioning. An analysis of the questionnaires of military pensioners who applied for dental care in 2019 was carried out. Data were received on the satisfaction of military pensioners with the medical service provided. The data obtained allow us to conclude that a total of 93% of military pensioners who applied to the Military Medical Academy for dental care are satisfied with the service provided. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to such issues as: ensuring the convenience and accessibility of obtaining medical services; the availability of information about the appointment procedure; organization of work of the registry; adjustment of navigation taking into account the age of the contingent (military pensioners).

Developed and proposed reasonable ways to reduce the incidence of personnel units of the air defense brigade of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The assessment of the health status of military personnel was based on the results of an in-depth analysis of morbidity with temporary disability (VUT). The negative influence of performance factors on the health indicators of military personnel was revealed. 71.6% of the military were sick during the study period, and only 28.4% were not sick. The stress of the body associated with the stress gene situation affects the general resistance of the body of the military, which is manifested by an increase in the overall incidence with temporary disability. In the structure of morbidity, the leading place is occupied by diseases of the respiratory system (44%), organs of the cardiovascular system (21%) and digestive organs (18%), infectious diseases - 4%, genitourinary diseases - 3% and nervous diseases - 7%. The creation of appropriate living conditions for the deployment of personnel, the provision of appropriate warm clothing and footwear, as well as adequate nutrition, will generally have a positive effect on the incidence (significantly lower level) of the air defense forces. By organizing appropriate control, the medical service will have the opportunity to deliberately influence the level of possible sanitary losses by patients during reconnaissance and information actions when performing tasks for their intended purpose.

IMPROVEMENT OF REQUIREMENTS FOR MOBILE FIELD X-RAY SYSTEMS
Abstract
When providing medical support for military operations, an important component is diagnostic measures, among which one of the main places is X-ray diagnostics, which is necessary as soon as possible for injuries and injuries, which are characterized by a wide variety of damage to organs and systems, the severity of the course and the high probability of adverse outcomes. In the light of these ideas, it is important to use modern approaches to the development of tactical and technical requirements for mobile field x-ray systems. Experience in the field of technical equipment of the medical service showed that mobile means of radiation diagnostics need further improvement. For this purpose, 4 groups of indicators have been developed that have been successfully used to evaluate a new field X-ray apparatus. When assessing functionality using a 4-point scale, experts gave a higher rating to the MobiRen-4MT apparatus, especially in the following indicators: the ability to perform a series of images, the ability to study any anatomical areas. The ARA 110. 160-02 is inferior to MobiRen-4MT in terms of the latest indicator, since it is difficult to perform radiological diagnostics of abdominal organs and lumbar spine in the field when examining full faces. Also, for the better, the MobiRen-4MT device differs in terms of indicators: completeness of research, safety for patients, and ease for patients.

THE LEGAL STATUS OF MEDICAL ORGANIZATIONS OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Abstract
The legislative regulation of the legal status (status) medical organization is carried out both federal laws and legal regulations. Medical organizations like nonprofits, firstly, perform socially important functions, and secondly, they do not have as a primary objective of its profit-making activities. However, these organizations can implement and aimed at profit-making business, but only insofar as it contributes to the objectives for which they were created. The first step in the structural reform of domestic health care was to change the legal form of state and municipal medical organizations, which were divided into three types: state, budget and autonomous. Of the listed types of institutions, an autonomous state institution is granted the widest freedom in attracting and managing funds received from activities that do not go beyond the scope of special legal capacity. Modern organizational and legal forms of medical organizations require correction due to the fact that none of the above forms of institutions is ideal for medical activities in the Russian Federation. The development of an innovative model of the legal form of a medical organization is the most urgent task of the Russian Federation for the coming years.

USING THE POTENTIAL OF A STATE-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW SAMPLES OF MEDICAL EQUIPMENT
Abstract
One of the promising mechanisms for the defense industry complex, including the production of medical equipment, is considered to be a public-private partnership, based on extra-budgetary funding, since the dominant positions in the domestic industry, as well as in the economy as a whole, are occupied by private company. Experts predicted that the defense industry could become a pilot platform for developing interaction between the state and business in the innovation sphere, as in the defense industry, high-tech products are provided with stable state demand and the prospects for the development of the complex are determined in the adopted programs. The practical implementation of plans to create new medical supplies under extreme conditions will be largely determined by the completeness of the subordinate regulatory framework and the amount of financial resources that the state is ready to allocate through various channels to support the relevant subjects of industrial activity. The practical implementation of plans for the creation of new medical supplies under extreme conditions will be largely determined by the completeness of the sub-legislative regulatory framework and the amount of financial resources that the state is ready to allocate through various channels to support the relevant subjects of industrial activity. Domestic manufacturers in almost all sectors have underloaded production capacities and therefore are able, especially with the assistance of the state, implemented under the existing legislation on industrial and investment policies, to increase the output of military products in the required time frame.

MODERN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE ORGANIZATION OF MEDICAL SUPPORT OF THE TROOPS (FORCES)
Abstract
The medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and large military medical organizations are developing various components of information technology designed to improve the medical support of military personnel and other attached contingents of the population. On the basis of the multidisciplinary clinic of the Military Medical Academy, a distributed data transmission network, a data processing center, a medical information system and highly specialized systems are being developed for the needs of certain areas of medicine. The coordination center for medical support realizes the needs of the practical application of information technology in the medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Technologies for coordination of donation and transplantation of human organs and tissues, a system of remote telemedicine consultations and a unified medical information system based on the automated Passport system are being developed. In the interests of the activities of the entire medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, work continues on the creation of interactive software products based on geoinformation systems that allow modernizing information services for managing subordinate units and organizations. In the interests of the military command and control system, automation processes are developing in the field of standard design tasks, as well as artificial intelligence systems for making management decisions in the field of unstructured and weakly structured data. There is no doubt that the role of information technology in the management of medical support for troops (forces), the provision of medical and diagnostic assistance in military medical organizations will only increase, and the medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation must adopt the most advanced experience and comply with the trends in the development of informatization in domestic health care

APPLICATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AT THE ORGANIZATION OF TREATMENT AND DIAGNOSTIC EVENTS
Abstract
Automated image analysis and pattern recognition using artificial intelligence is increasingly being used in various fields of science and practice. In the field of medicine, the use of artificial intelligence based on neural networks of various types has found its application in the analysis of digital diagnostic images, mainly in the field of radiology and radiology. The main criterion that determines the effectiveness of the application of artificial intelligence technologies is the degree of sensitivity and specificity of the method, i.e. the percentage of true positive and true false results. In this case, the final decision on the application of diagnostic results using artificial intelligence is made only by a medical specialist who bears medical and legal responsibility for treating a patient. In this case, the main form of application of artificial intelligence in medicine is the formation of systems for making support for medical decisions in medical information systems. The development of diagnostic and medical decision support systems based on neural networks is actively developing. This is due to improved diagnostic accuracy and reduced time required for its implementation. The accuracy of existing systems reaches 97%, but at the moment there is no single diagnostic SPPVR compatible with the information systems of medical organizations. In conditions of active informatization of military health care, the development of a unified medical information system for the military medical service and EHISS, the introduction of AI elements in clinical practice will ensure the unification and standardization of diagnostics, and will improve the quality of the treatment and diagnostic process in the units, units and organizations of the medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

IMITATION MODELING OF ACTIVITIES OF A FIELD MEDICAL ORGANIZATION (ON THE EXAMPLE OF A MEDICAL COMPANY OF A BRIGADE)
Abstract
Simulation of the work of medical organizations is becoming an important tool for evaluating the activities and throughput of departments, parts and institutions of the medical service, as well as evaluating the use of their resources. A field medical organization is a universal facility for providing various types of medical care outside of stationary facilities, both in situations of military conflict and in the liquidation of the health consequences of an emergency. It was revealed that the use of simulation tools allows you to more flexibly evaluate various parameters of the field medical organization. When creating an adequate model that takes into account all the resources of a medical organization, it is possible to simulate various flows of the wounded, sick and injured and offer options for organizational decisions in terms of the amount of assistance provided and the need to attract additional resources in various functional units. To model the field medical organization, we took as a basis the structure and staff of the medical company brigade. The movement of patient information flows from the reception and sorting department to the evacuation department was simulated. About 50% of all incoming patients fell into the marshalling room for lightly wounded. The proportion of seriously wounded and wounded moderate was about 35%. Modeling allows predicting the flow rate of patients, the use of resources of the field medical organization, as well as determining the possibility of maneuver by forces and means of the medical service. It is advisable to further develop the modeling system in the medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, create models of typical field medical organizations, as well as a medical and evacuation support system consisting of various field medical organizations as a whole.

EXPERIENCE IN CONDUCTING FIELD TRIALS (ASSESSMENT AND TESTING) MODELSOF PORTABLE NON-INVASIVE MONITOR IN THE FIELD
Abstract
During the exercises of the Central Military District Center-2019 at the Donguz training ground from 08.27.2019. On August 30, 2019, field trials of a prototype portable non-invasive monitor were conducted. Portable non-invasive monitor (PNM) is designed for operational continuous monitoring of vital parameters of patients in transport and field conditions. PNM allows continuous non-invasive measurement of blood pressure, ECG, pulse oximetry. The invasive method of determination has known limitations, especially in the conduct of combat operations, evacuation of the wounded and injured to further stages of medical evacuation, which stimulated the development of devices for non-invasive control. The use of PNM in combat conditions and during evacuation will allow continuous assessment of the functional state of the wounded and injured at the stages of medical evacuation. The monitor confirmed the ability to perform its functions as intended: the packaging and installation of the device is convenient for carrying by a shooter as a nurse; installation of sensors on the wounded is convenient and takes no more than 2 minutes in the summer; pulse oximetry and ECG work steadily in the process of transporting the wounded along field roads; the connection of the registration modules with the display module is stable in one room or in an open area. The created medical protocol is suitable for assessing the functional state of the injured and affected at the stages of medical evacuation. The selected instrument construction concept a system of registration modules and an indication module combined by a wireless interface effectively fulfills its purpose and is convenient for practice.

INTELLECTUAL ANALYSIS SYSTEMS OF MEDICINE INFORMATIONAS MAIN ASSISTANT OF RADIOLOGIST
Abstract
Digital analysis technologies and synthesis of data are very important in modern clinical practice. Innovative areas of medical science are also associated with an increasing flow of data and the discovery of new nosological forms. Processing information is the most important part in researching of normal and pathological structure and functions internal organs. Digital analysis technologies also apply to support a diagnosis decision, curative manipulations and warnings of potentially dangerous changes in the health status of patients. Despite the fact that neural networks were introduced into medicine in order to completely replace a specialist at the stage of diagnosis, the need for a doctor to participate in this process is undeniable. The most important option for using neural networks in medicine is the ability to create a logic circuit. The doctor receives information about the patient during a direct examination of the patient. The artificial neural network gives the result - the diagnosis, but the final decision-making right remains with the doctor. The information retrieval system in this scheme stands in order to compensate for the possible lack of knowledge of the doctor in complex and rare clinical cases and acts as a consultant. It is possible to use these algorithms in organizing medical support for the daily activities of troops (forces) with the widespread introduction of telemedicine technologies.

ABOUT MEDICAL AND SANITARY MAINTENANCE OF THE SOVIET TROOPS IN THE AREA OF LAKE HASSAN (1938)
Abstract
In the course of the study studied, analyzed and summarized available in open sources information on the results of medical support of the Soviet troops in the area of lake Khasan (1938). During the research work, the main problematic issues were revealed medical support of military operations of the Soviet troops in the area of Lake Khasan (1938), which should be paid special attention to in the course of work on the preparation of the medical service to perform the tasks intended. Despite a number of difficulties caused by the specific nature of the theater of operations and organizational shortcomings, the adopted system of staged evacuation and treatment of the wounded has shown its effectiveness. A total of 16 thousand people were admitted to hospitals during the conflict. In addition, some of the slightly wounded and sick continued to be in parts. For the first time during military operations on Khalkhin Gol, ambulance aircraft were widely used, and specialized surgical care departments were created in the structure of evacuation hospitals. Thus, in 1939 there was a system of staged evacuation and treatment of the wounded, which was later applied on the fields of the Great Patriotic War.

MEDICAL SUPPORT PLANNING OF BELARUSIAN STRATEGIC OFFENSIVE OPERATION “BAGRATION” (1944)
Abstract
In the course of the study, information on the planning of medical support for the strategic offensive operation Bagration was studied, analyzed and generalized. In the course of the research work, the main problematic issues in the planning of medical support for strategic operations were revealed, which should be paid special attention in the process of preparing the medical service for the fulfillment of its intended tasks. As a result of mistakes (due to objective reasons) made during the planning of medical support for the strategic offensive operation Bagration, the location of the hospital bases of the fronts did not meet the objectives of the fronts during the strategic offensive operation. An important decision during the medical support of the operation was to approach the front line of the hospitals of the first echelon of the hospital base of the front, which can serve as an example of the correct and timely maneuver by the forces and means of the medical service when the situation changes. The study formulated conclusions. 1. The Belarusian strategic offensive operation “Bagration” was prepared in the conditions of secrecy and secrecy, characterized by a huge scope of actions of the troops, ambitious plans and, in this regard, planning was carried out in conditions of a lack of information on the composition of the troops, the direction of the attacks, which in turn led to the lack of interaction not only between the fronts, but also between the armies. 2. The planning of medical support for the strategic offensive operation Bagration and the training of forces and facilities of the medical service of the fronts were negatively affected by the lack of a coordinating role of the Main Military Sanitary Administration. 3. As a result of errors (due to objective reasons) made when planning the medical support of the strategic offensive operation Bagration, the location of the hospital bases of the fronts did not meet the objectives of the fronts during the strategic offensive operation. 4. An important decision during the medical support of the operation was to approach the front line of the hospitals of the first echelon of the hospital base of the front, which can serve as an example of the correct and timely maneuver by forces and means of the medical service in case of a change in situation.

MILITARY-HISTORICAL ASPECTS OF FORMATION ANDORGANIZATION OF WORK OF THE EVACUATION POINT (LOCAL)
Abstract
As a result of the analysis of available materials, the historical experience of the management bodies in the management system of the hospital base of the rear of the country in the framework of medical support of front-line operations of the great Patriotic war of 1941-1945 is analyzed. The conditions of modern warfare do not allow to concentrate in advance all the wounded and sick to be evacuated at loading points and require the organization of quick unloading of arriving wounded and sick and concentrating them far from the parking lots of vehicles. In this regard, when organizing the mass evacuation of the wounded and sick, the forces and funds allocated for its support should be located both at the places of loading (unloading) and at a point that ensures the concentration of evacuees or reception of arriving contingents. The composition of forces and means at the loading points and at the concentration (reception) point will be different and may vary depending on the situation and the tasks being solved. The evacuation (and especially mass) requires mandatory compliance with a number of general requirements, which, first of all, include a clear organization of medical triage, preparation of the wounded and sick for evacuation, urgent medical measures, loading and un-loading of the wounded and sick, evacuated with everything necessary and maintaining medical records.

PARTICIPTION OF 6TH YEAR CADETS IN DEPTH MEDICAL EXAMINATIONDURING MILITARI TRAINING
Abstract
On December 29, 2018, the “Interim Instruction for the organization of medical examination, preventive and curative and health-improving measures, and clinical observation of the military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation” was approved and entered into force. With this instruction, changes were made to the organization and procedure for conducting an in-depth medical examination of the military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. An in-depth medical examination of conscripted military personnel, as well as contracted military personnel (up to the unit commander and their peers), is carried out in medical companies (points) of military units, on the basis of outpatient departments (polyclinics) of medical military units (military medical organizations). The unit commander is responsible for providing the unit personnel for an in-depth (control) medical examination. A doctor of a military medical unit, unit or organization is responsible for the completeness and quality of an in-depth (control) medical examination of a soldier, as well as the preventive and therapeutic measures prescribed by him. Thus, the data presented allow us to conclude that the conduct of UMO in accordance with the requirements of the “Interim Instructions for the organization of medical examination, preventive and therapeutic measures, clinical follow-up of military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation” allows us to give a more objective assessment of the state of health and identify a number of diseases in the early stages and take measures to prevent and treat them.

EXPERIENCE OF ORGANIZATION OF MEDICAL SUPPORT OF PERSONNEL OF THE NATIONAL GUARD OF THE REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN AT THE WINTER UNIVERSIADE IN ALMATY (2017)
Abstract
Properly organized and sustainable medical support for socially significant public events requires thoughtful preparatory work, which begins with an assessment of the management’s intentions, the characteristics of the location and working conditions of the personnel, the possible level of morbidity and injury, the specifics of the region and the region’s infrastructure, and the calculation of the forces and facilities of the medical service, early provision of a reserve of medical property. In the course of studying the experience of organizing medical support, the basic principles of managing the staged system of medical support for mass events were formulated. The most complete information on the interaction of the medical service of the National Guard of the Republic of Kazakhstan (NG RK) with other governing bodies was studied and summarized. The stages of separation of medical care were developed for the personnel of the involved forces and the population. The results of the analysis showed that therapeutic pathology (acute respiratory diseases) prevailed among the personnel, since the games took place in the winter. Moreover, the need for hospitalization was less than 50% of the number of sick employees. The injuries were sporadic and not severe. In the course of studying the experience of organizing medical support for mass sporting events, fundamental principles were formulated for managing the stage-by-stage system of medical support for mass events and organizing interaction with other special services, the scope of which includes measures to maintain public order and protect the life and health of the population. Guidelines were developed that regulate the activities of the medical service of the National Guard of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
