At the Military Medical University in the USA, ATLS courses and Gunpowder field training are held for Kyiv medics.
Ukrainian doctors and instructors take from their American colleagues the experience of working with trauma under tactical conditions. This is necessary for further work as part of the Armed Forces at the front. The organizer of the event is the “Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences” (USA). Studies continue in the state of Maryland (USA) at the Military Medical University.
Representatives of the National Institute of Surgery and Transplantology named after O. O. Shalimov, Institute of Physiology named after O. O. Bogomolets, instructors of the Kyiv ICTM educational and training center.
Lectures and practical classes on tactical medicine await the participants, as well as an exam at the end of the training.
KOVA is grateful to American partners for implementing such initiatives and invitations, as well as to the Ministry of Health of Ukraine for supporting and facilitating participation in medical specialist courses.
Doctors from Great Britain will share their experience of rehabilitation of soldiers with amputated limbs. Rehabilitation of wounded soldiers should begin immediately after amputation.
