Abstract

Objects: Medical evacuations from foreign settings are a major health and strategic problem for the fortified forces. This work aimed to study the characteristics of French military evacuations due to contagious conditions.

Material and Methods: We performed a retrospective study grounded on the registers of the French functional service staff for health to assess the characteristics of the strategic medical evacuation of French fortified forces members on operations abroad between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2016.

Results: Out of 4633 included cases, 301 medical evacuations (6.5) were carried out due to contagious situations. further than half of cases were repatriated to surgical wards( 162 cases, 54), 108 cases( 36) to medical wards, 21 cases( 7) to ferocious care units, six cases( 2) to an fortified forces medical center, and four lines( 1) were deficient. Among contagious extremities, malaria led to 30 evacuations (10) including 11 to ferocious care units and one death before evacuation. Contagious conditions taking medical evacuation were most frequently mild and communityacquired. Utmost dogfaces were vacated without medical backing.

Conclusions: Contagious conditions during operations and medical deportations carried out for contagious reasons are important epidemiological pointers to cover. They make it possible to acclimatize preventative measures, training, and individual and remedial tools which can be made available to frontal- line military croakers.
