RESUMO
Artificial intelligence (AI) encompasses the advancement of computers and robots, enabling them to surpass human capabilities in various aspects. By utilizing AI, programs have the ability to autonomously analyze and interpret data, offering information and executing actions without any human involvement. The ongoing war in Ukraine showed various aspects of severe gunshot injuries because of previously unknown course of wounds after application of ballistic missiles, drones, etc., which is frequently applied by russians. In such conditions, decision-making process by military medical doctors must be quick and rational, however in case of massive casualties, combined trauma (e.g. thoracoabdominal gunshot injury) MDs might have permanent challenges to apply appropriate care options and individualized approach. The aim of this study is to start the discussion about role and possible application of AI in management of gunshot injuries in combat patients or other individuals who received wounds relating to high-energy weapon. Conclusions. Gunshot wound is a clinical challenge in many cases among patients who were injured by high-energy weapons, requiring complex and quick decisions. AI might be applied as an additional tool for the decision-making process in case of severe trauma in deployed field hospitals, or in hospitals of higher Roles (3-4). This study is to start the research discussion about the utility of AI application for the management of the injured in the war associated with high-energy weapons.
