Introduction

 War-zone injuries are creating PTSD. This study aimed to assess Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) Following Traumatic injuries among the Military Populations.

Methods

  PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar sites were searched from 2013 to 2023. Two authors separately screened, assessed, and included the studies and any disagreement resolved by senior reviewers.

Results

Fifteen studies were included. Mental disorders among the forces showed that diseases, such as PTSD, were the highest among the military forces. The PTSD proportion in TBI cases was more significant than those without TBI. The cause of injuries and PTSD outcomes was due to blast injuries.

Conclusion

PTSD is among military force personnel's most common mental health disorders. Therefore, measures must be taken to prevent and control these diseases, especially among military combat forces. Classifying mental health disorders based on gender, age, the type of military service, the location of troops, the military rank of individuals, and the relationship with PTSD require further studies.
