Abstract

Any armed conflict is accompanied by casualties and injuries both from the civilian population and from military personnel, that is, a group of people is receiving health damage for this reason, which requires the establishment of a sustainable level of disability. As a result of Operation United Forces, many negative economic, political, social and psychological consequences have emerged in society: a significant number of people, after being demobilized, return back to civil society, traumatized physically and mentally, introducing features of militarized consciousness and influencing society. At the same time, it should be remembered that post-traumatic illness in military personnel often ends in the development of adverse effects (medical, psychological, social) that lead to long-term or permanent disability and significant economic damage.

The aim of the study. It was to study the dynamics of the disability of war invalids among all persons with disabilities and to identify and analyze their disability status. Material and methods. The following indicators were examined: number of war invalids, number of war invalids by groups. To study the dynamics of these indicators used data from the Ukrainian State Medical and Social Center of War Veterans. The time frame of the observation was 2016-2018. The statistics were evaluated using the method of dynamic series analysis to determine the absolute level and rate of increase. Ranking method was used to compare indicators in different regions of Ukraine. Results and conclusions. When analyzing the dynamics of disability in Ukraine as a whole, there is a decrease in the number of war invalids (the average rate of decline is 9.5%). This indicator is highest in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Chernihiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions. Analyzing the number of disabled people in groups, it was found that: the number of disabled people in group I tends to decrease throughout Ukraine; the number of disabled people of the second group has a slight tendency to decrease due to Vinnytsia, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Kyiv, Kirovograd, Lviv, Mykolaiv, Rivne, Sumy, Kharkiv, Khmelnytsky, Chernivtsi regions; the number of disabled people of group III is gradually increasing all over Ukraine, except for Transcarpathian region.
