skin diseases, military, outpatient clinic admission, dermatovenerologic pathologyAbstract
Amidst the rising number of COVID-19 cases, particularly due to the emergence of a new Omicron variant known as “FLIRT,” Ukraine is also experiencing the prolongation of martial law and ongoing mobilization of military personnel. These concurrent events have led to a significant increase in the number of soldiers presenting with various skin lesions at military hospitals. The heightened stress, close living quarters, and potential neglect of personal hygiene during mobilization may contribute to the exacerbation and spread of dermatological and venereal diseases among troops.
This surge in dermatovenerological conditions has resulted in a substantial backlog of patients awaiting outpatient consultations. The situation underscores an urgent need to analyze the structure and prevalence of skin pathologies among military personnel, categorized by nosological entities. By conducting a thorough analysis, healthcare providers can identify common conditions, recognize patterns of disease transmission, and understand the underlying factors contributing to this increase.
Such insights are crucial for improving and optimizing the provision of specialized medical care at different levels within the military healthcare system. Enhanced understanding will facilitate the development of targeted prevention strategies, efficient resource allocation, and tailored treatment protocols. This will not only alleviate the current strain on medical facilities but also improve overall health outcomes for soldiers during this critical period. Addressing these challenges is essential for maintaining the operational readiness of the military forces and ensuring the well-being of those serving during the mobilization in Ukraine.
