Look at these photos, as if they came straight out of a film about the Great Patriotic War. My comrade, a combat medic, showed his front-line medical post and talked about the importance of tactical medicine:

“Hippocrates also said: War is the best school for a surgeon. Other physician-philosophers said: War is the best school for a doctor.
Medicine always follows the war, in parallel with it and with it.

Before SVO, many people had a superficial understanding of tactical medicine. Nowadays, a lot of effort and resources from military medicine are directed specifically at the moments of providing first aid at the front line. Individual first aid kits, military paramedic bags, military doctor bags (there are a huge number of them), other stowage equipment, and other medical equipment needed on the front line have been improved and developed.

The most important thing is that you need to be able to use the newly developed medical equipment - your life, and the life of your early comrade, depends on these skills.

Particular emphasis is now placed on training personnel (many hours are allocated to this, both theoretical and more practical). This is very, very interesting for military personnel, especially conscripts and “young contract soldiers.”

Tactical medicine instructors explain it in such a way that some people follow them after classes asking them to tell us something else and show them from personal experience...

I think very soon it will come to Drones, which deliver first aid medical equipment to places where the wounded find themselves in difficult situations, with various instructions for use, if there is no doctor nearby (like trained dogs in the Great Patriotic War).

A fighter, a group of fighters, was wounded, and a drone arrived. I brought additional tourniquets, bandages, Promedol, splints, tact. stretchers and other useful things. The drone assessed the situation regarding the severity of the wounded, the nature of the injuries, and visually the medical operator made decisions.
Of course, it's something out of science fiction, but still...

In the meantime, as grandfather Lenin bequeathed, “study, study, study” tactical medicine in the field.
