Main Article Content
Abstract
The aim of the research – assessment of the health status of children before starting to attend a preschool institution and the causes of morbidity in the first year of.
Materials and methods. A retrospective comparative study of outpatient records of organized preschool children in Novosibirsk was conducted. The following criteria were taken into development: age at which children started attending preschool education, feeding, vaccination, observation by specialists, reasons for seeking medical help during the first year of stay in an organized group. The material was processed using a package of modern statistical programs.
Results. The average age at which children started attending preschool education was 2,1 ± 0,4 years. 42 % were healthy, 46 % had functional abnormalities, 12 % had chronic diseases in the compensation stage. Most children with health group I, half of the children with group II and only a third with group III were breastfed for up to 6 months. The main reason for seeking medical help in the first year of visiting a kindergarten was acute respiratory infections (ARI): 97,7 % were ill from 1 to 10 times (on average 3,3 ± 1,9 times). Another group of causes are infectious and parasitic diseases. In patients with recurrent ARIs the following was often recorded: moderate severity, complicated course and the need for systemic antibacterial therapy.
Conclusion. 77 % of children begin attending kindergarten before the age of 3. The majority did not have chronic diseases (42 % – health group I and 46 % – health group II). Breastfeeding plays a leading role in shaping a child’s health. Respiratory diseases occupy first place in the structure of childhood pathology and are the main reason for seeking medical help.
