Unfortunately, the exposure to skills they may be responsible for performing is limited. Research shows that greater than 90% of battlefield deaths occur in the prehospital setting, 24% of which are potentially survivable.

The muscular dystrophy is a progressive genetically determined disease of skeletal muscles. Thanks to the development of molecular genetics there have been identified genes responsible for synthesis of the corresponding proteins of the muscular membrane, whose deficiency causes certain types of muscular dystrophy. Thus, recently has been reported that deficiency of sarcoglycan (alpha, beta, gamma and sigma) is responsible for the appearance of four different types of autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (2D, 2E, 2C, 2F), and that the lack of merosin is the cause of serious merosin deficiency, of congenital muscular dystrophy.
