The effectiveness of the process of restoring the functional status of servicemen who were in the area of the Joint Forces operation

Abstract

Psychological rehabilitation of combatants is especially relevant today, when the hybrid war in the east of our country has been going on for eight years. The scale of this phenomenon in Ukrainian society requires an active study of the psychological problems of servicemen that have emerged during this time. The aim of the work is to determine the effectiveness of medical rehabilitation of servicemen after being in the combat zone according to the indicators of emotional burnout. A specially designed questionnaire was used to assess the impressions of combat and domestic problems that arise in the military in the area of the Joint Forces Operation (JFO) in relation to the effects of internal and external factors of combatants. To determine the development of chronic fatigue, the method "Diagnosis of emotional burnout" by Boyko V. V. was used. Statistical analysis of the obtained results was carried out with the involvement of methods of parametric and nonparametric statistics, cluster, stepwise multiple correlation and stepwise discriminant analysis using the software package STATISTICA 13.3. Analysis of the obtained data showed that six psychophysiological qualities (Rsl=0.67) were the most related to the parameter of stress load "before" treatment. The list of informative characteristics indicates the high activity of the body of servicemen, the dependence of endurance of their nervous system, the level of concentration and reliability of activity from the received stress. After treatment, the number of informative psychophysiological indicators decreases significantly, and the strength of the connection with stress increases slightly (Rsl=0.78), which indicates the gradual restoration of relevant body functions. It was found that the characteristics of emotions are associated with stress (Rsl=0.52). Before treating these relationships, there are three feelings: "self-dissatisfaction", "caged", "emotional and moral disorientation". After treatment, this connection is slightly reduced along with the elimination of the emotion of "self-dissatisfaction", which characterizes the gradual ordering, systematization of the feelings of the combatant, starting with the relationship to himself. It was found that the average efficiency of 10-day treatment is 16.7 %, which indicates the benefit of restorative procedures. Information technology has been developed that allows to quantify the outcome of treatment, the use of which will allow a meaningful approach to the treatment process, to carry out dynamic control of its results and improve rehabilitation techniques.
