Report to the third Congress of Patriotic Psychiatrists in St. Petersburg (from December 27, 1909 to January 5, 1910). Mm. gg.The question of the organization of psychiatric care in the theater of operations is closely connected with the question of psychiatric care for the population in peacetime. The wider this assistance in peacetime, the narrower it can be in the theater of operations. In fact, if the issue of psychiatric care for the population in peacetime had been more or less satisfactorily handled by us, then the question of psychiatric care in the theater of operations would not have been so acute, since there is always a part of the mentally ill who fell ill in the theater of war. actions, it would be possible to place them in the existing peacetime psychiatric institutions and would not have to evacuate the mentally ill for tens of thousands of miles, as was the case in the last Russo-Japanese War.
