NEW APPROACHES TO WAR SURGEONS TRAINING
Advanced training cycles with students secondment in the level 1 trauma centers are considered to be the traditional form of surgeons training on issues of assistance with severe injuries and wounds. In Russia, such a center for the training of military surgeons is the War Surgery Department of the S.M. Kirov S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, St. Petersburg, 194044, Academica Lebedeva str., 6, Russia. In recent years, the demonstrativeness of the educational process, the possibility of actual participation in the treatment process, and the acquisition of practical skills by students has been reducing. In order to improve practical skillsof the military surgeons, introduction of new forms of education is needed. The most promising of them is toconduct practical courses using large biological objects and cadaver material. In our age of global expansion of digital and virtual technologies, the possibility of teaching students basic rescue skills for the wounded and injured using mixed and augmented reality is being considered.
