Health condition of children suffering from respiratory disease
Respiratory disease is the number one disease in children. The authors studied the health and morbidity of children examined at childrens city clinic № 39 in Moscow. The highest morbidity level was registered for children aged 0 to 3 years; the indicator tends to decline towards the age of 14. Overall morbidity of children suffering from respiratory diseases is 1.7 times higher than that of children in 1 and 2 health groups, hence this category should be carefully supervised by pediatricians and pulmonologists.
