Abstract

This article examines the impact of modern technologies on the rehabilitation process of military personnel facing injuries from combat or other circumstances. It describes the various technologies used in the field, such as virtual reality to improve physical and psychological health, electronic devices and applications to accurately track progress during physical therapy, exoskeletons to facilitate mobility recovery, telerehabilitation to provide remote support, and the use of artificial intelligence to optimize rehabilitation programs. The benefits of using these technologies in a military context are discussed, including reducing recovery time and improving the quality of life of military personnel. The importance of innovations in maintaining the health of the military after difficult circumstances is noted. Technological tools used in rehabilitation open up new opportunities to improve outcomes and ensure effective recovery after traumatic events. In addition, modern technologies make it possible to individualize approaches to rehabilitation, taking into account the unique needs of each serviceman. Technologies also facilitate the collection of objective data on the progress of military personnel during rehabilitation, allowing for more accurate assessment of outcomes and adjustments to treatment programs. One of the key benefits of using modern technologies is increasing patient motivation. Virtual reality, interactive applications, and game elements help make the rehabilitation process more engaging and interesting, encouraging military members to actively participate in recovery programs. In general, the implementation of modern technologies in the process of military rehabilitation is an important step in improving the quality of life and the speed of recovery of servicemen injured as a result of hostilities or other events. These innovations contribute to increasing the effectiveness of rehabilitation measures and are an important factor in maintaining the health and well-being of military personnel after difficult life circumstances.
