Abstract. It is noted that victims with polytrauma should be hospitalized in medical organizations of the 3rd level or in Federal specialized medical institutions not later than 24 hours from the moment of injury, since their diagnostic and treatment at 1st level facilities lead to an increase in mortality.

It is stated that with an increase in the number of stages of medical care and the duration of medical evacuation of patients with polytrauma, the probability of an unfavorable prognosis of their life and health increases.

It is concluded that the system of continuous monitoring of emergency medical care delivery and medical evacuation allows to track the routing and condition of patients with polytrauma, timely evacuate them to the facilities of level 3 and interregional medical centers to provide comprehensive medical care.

Key words: daily activity mode, emergency mode, medical district, medical evacuation, medical organizations, monitoring, patients with polytrauma, quality criteria, routing, Territorial Centers for Disaster Medicine, three-level health care system
