AI Article Synopsis

  • Resilience training helps reduce post-traumatic stress among military personnel, and this study reviews its effectiveness before deployment.
  • A scoping review analyzed 25 studies on resilience interventions, focusing on their methods and impacts.
  • While the training shows promise, effectiveness varies by individual and context, highlighting the need for tailored approaches in resilience programs.

Article Abstract

Purpose: Resilience is considered as a protective factor that can assist individuals to reduce post-traumatic stress reactions. In recent years, armies in many countries have widely implemented resilience training programs before deployment to prevent or reduce post-deployment combat stress reactions. Therefore, this study aims to review what is known about resilience interventions for military personnel in pre deployment.

Methods: Based on Arskey and O'Malley's framework, a scoping review was completed. This review was performed through searching databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Medline and the Cochrane Library, and screening literature to extract data, finally summarizing the findings.

Results: A total of 25 studies focusing on resilience interventions for military personnel in pre deployment were involved and analyzed using intervention approaches, outcome measures, intervention effects, and so on.

Conclusion: Based on the existing evidence in this review, it is cautiously believed that the resilience intervention program for military personnel before deployment is effective. However, there is no single effective best method even the same type intervention can make different effects in different situations and populations. Therefore, the population differences and context should be fully considered in constructing and implementing program to build military personnel resilience.

The traditional approach to resuscitating injured women of childbearing potential (WCBP) with an unknown RhD type is to transfuse RhD-negative blood products. This is to prevent alloimmunisation to the RhD antigen and ultimately prevent haemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) in future pregnancies should she survive. RhD-negative blood products are scarce in both military and civilian blood stocks.
