Integrated Approaches to Combat Trauma Conference Budapest, February 2026

Acute injury care is not only a military concept.
It is a system, and it is deeply relevant to civilian life.

When we speak about an Acute Injury Care System, the immediate association is often the battlefield.
In reality, the same life-saving principles are applied every day in civilian settings.

In both combat and civilian care, outcomes depend on time, coordination, and continuity of care.
These factors often determine the difference between life and death - and between recovery and disability.

This system is essential in civilian life:
✔️ Road traffic accidents
✔️ Falls and occupational injuries
✔️ Agricultural and industrial trauma
✔️ Civilian violence and mass casualty incidents

An Acute Injury Care System is not a single intervention.
It is a continuum:
scene ➡️ evacuation ➡️ hospital care ➡️ surgery ➡️ intensive care ➡️ rehabilitation.

The experience gained in combat medicine continues to shape and advance civilian emergency and acute injury care worldwide.

This is the vision behind ACT 2026 - the first international conference dedicated entirely to integrated acute injury care systems,
designed to open an ongoing, future-focused dialogue across disciplines and borders.

If you are involved in emergency medicine, trauma care, surgery, rehabilitation, healthcare leadership, or system-level planning - this conference is relevant to you.

Join it. Be part of shaping what comes next.
