This article examines the gaps in research concerning health care workers in "complex security environments". These work areas contain some sort of conflict, poverty or environmental issues, particularly those that are humanitarian or crisis settings, and are characterized by civil unrest.

It pays particular attention to discrepancies between peer-reviewed, academic research and general media commentary or articles.
