Abstract：Objective To analyze characteristics of military training related injuries to the armed police at a Tibetan Hospital in the mountainous area, and to investigate the preventive effect of medical support preposition on military training related injuries so as to provide reference for the prevention and control of military training related injuries.Methods Armed police officers and soldiers who had been hospitalized between June 2010 and June 2016 at a Tibetan hospital in the mountainous area because of military training related injuries were incorporated as subjects. Characteristics correlated with military training related injuries were further analyzed, including the population distribution, seasonal prevalence, types and duration of injury. Furthermore, such parameters as the prehospitalation time, length of hospital stay and disability rate before (June 2010 to May 2013) and after (June 2013 toJune 2016) the preposition of health resources were compared.Results The high occurrence season for military training related injuries among the armed police from a Tibetan hospital in the mountainous area was more likely to be autumn（34.7%）, dominated by soft tissue damage and acute injury（55.1% and 67.2% respectively）. After the preposition of health resources, the length of hospital stay and the pre hospitalation time of acute injuries were both shortened for the armed police , yet no significant difference was found in the disability rate.Conclusions Prevention and control measures tailored to characteristics of military training related injuries in armed police officers and soldiers in Tibetan mountainous areas should be taken, and the preposition of health resources may contribute to a timely treatment of military training related injuries.
