Specialists of the clinic of Valikhnovski Surgery Institute in Kyiv perform various operations related to battlefield surgery:
Preparation for planned operations related to combat trauma, if possible, includes the general principles of preparation for surgical interventions:
The patient is either brought to the operating room on a gurney or escorted on foot. In the airlock room, a medical cap and shoe covers are put on (to prevent microorganisms from entering the air of the operating room).
Operations related to combat trauma are performed by an operational team of a certain composition, taking into account the specifics of each operation.
The patient is placed on the operating table (depending on the specifics of the operation, the position of the body may differ), fixed to it with special straps.
The anesthetist’s nurse performs a vein puncture on the hand, installs a catheter to administer the necessary drugs, installs electrodes on the body to monitor the electrical activity of the heart, puts a tonometer cuff on the shoulder, and a sensor to determine the oxygen content in the blood. All this is necessary for continuous monitoring of the body’s condition during anesthesia and surgery.
The further course of the operation depends on the specific task, the part of the body on which the intervention is carried out, corresponds to the features of the selected surgical tactics, technique, etc.
After surgery, the patient wakes up in the ward for postoperative observation. If necessary, oxygen can be supplied through a thin tube to provide the body with a sufficient amount of oxygen. The nurse will carefully monitor the condition of the body and, if necessary, apply drugs agreed with the doctor.
Before returning home, the doctor of our clinic will examine the postoperative sutures, agree on the tactics of further rehabilitation, and give additional advice.
