title: [Effectiveness of the medical-psychological rehabilitation of combatants].
abstract: To analyze treatment effectiveness, authors examined 199 combatants during the first days and in 1.5 month after their return from combat zones. Stages and content of medical-psychological rehabilitation, including psychopharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, are described. The significant improvement in clinical and social-psychological characteristics of patients was revealed. The reduction of main psychopathological symptoms was identified in patients with adaptation disorders as well as with post-traumatic-stress disorders. The necessity of rehabilitation for all combatants after their return from combat zones has been grounded.
