Description
Summary:То analyze medical care for children with gastroenterological diseases in the Transbaikal Territory, the author studied their incidence from the referral rates of children and adolescents, by examining the statistical materials of the Medical Information and Analytical Center of the Transbaikal Territory. The 2006—2012 morbidity rates per 1000 children were calculated. In the children, digestive diseases were found to rank second, amounting to 8,5% of all pathology cases. There was a tendency for the incidence of gastrointestinal diseases to decrease. However, it continues to remain higher in the Transbaikal Territory than in the entire country. For all the years, gallbladder diseases headed the list of the above diseases, gastritis and duodenitis ranked next, non-infectious enterocolitis occupied the third place. The interpretation of the results of additional studies and the issues of treatment and prevention are discussed. It is concluded that there is a need for the early prevention of gastroenterological diseases when their risk factors form. Increased attention to gastroenterological diseases in children will be a prerequisite for reducing their incidence in an adult population.
