Abstract

The purpose of the study was to determine appropriate diagnostic, therapeutic and rehabilitation treatments of patients with military-related craniocereberal trauma. We have examined 180 male patients: 100 participant of operations in the Democratic Republic Afghanistan (1979-1989) and 80 - participants of conflict in the east of Ukraine (from 2014 until present) with military-related craniocereberal trauma of varying severity. We used clinical-neurological, instrumental (craniography of skull, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasonic doppler sonography of the main vessels of the head and neck), biochemical, statistical methods of a research, and also questionnaire scale SF-36. It was found that the quality of life of patients with military-related craniocereberal trauma depends on the severity of the wound and the period after trauma. In the early period after military-related craniocereberal trauma of light or average severity, the psychological components are more strongly manifested. Patients with severe military-related craniocereberal trauma have serious physical, psychological and social problems at different periods after trauma. The results of the research show that the quality of life depends on the severity of functional disorders and have impact on adaptive potential of the organism.
