Abstract

The data obtained in experiments on shoal using plastic charges of 100-50-25 g of equivalent power of antipersonnel mines showed that injuring action on shoal was four times greater than that on land and resulted in considerably graver skeletal traumas and distant injuries. Of special significance in pathogenesis of mine-explosive wounds on shoal is pneumonia followed by arterial air embolism and encephalopathy. Although the undermining on land and on shoal have many common etiopathogenetic features, there are substantial differences first of all due to different mechanisms of their appearance. It must be taken into account while performing evacuatory, diagnostic and medical measures in such patients.
