Abstract:
The treatment of war wounds is the core content of military medicine. Considering the development of weapons, the change of war mode and the need of health services, the treatment of war wounds must be adapted to the requirements of the new situation. Wounds in modern wars are the traumas caused in all-domain hybrid warfare. Through local wars and related military operations, foreign armed forces especially the US armed forces have implemented or improved many technologies and health service countermeasures for the treatment of war wounds, and put forward new concepts and strategies for war wound treatment, which may serve as a valuable reference in the establishment of Chinese combat casualty care system in the conditions of future warfare and a combat casualty care system that fits the Chinese characteristics. For this purpose, the author introduced the new concept and strategy of wound treatment in modern wars from two aspects of the overall health and self-rescue and mutual rescue training, extension of the rescue force and application of new technologies in combat casualty care, hoping to provide a reference for the establishment of a combat casualty care system with Chinese characteristics in the conditions of future warfare.
