Abstract

The aim of the research is to analyze indicators and structure of infant mortality in Krasnoyarsk Territory for the period from 2014 to 2018. Material and methods. Th e article studies indicators of population mortality and fertility, infant mortality in Krasnoyarsk Territory for fi ve-year period from 2014 to 2018. Th e analysis of the results obtained is carried out in comparison with other constituent entities of the Russian Federation and with the country in general. Newborns morbidity rates in Krasnoyarsk Territory over a five-year period were studied in comparison with the data for the Russian Federation during 2017 and 2018. Results. The study revealed the excess of mortality over births in the region by 2018, with the coeffi cient 0.7 for 1000 population. It was found that in the period from 2014 to 2018 there is a decrease in infant mortality rate in the Russian Federation by 31.1 %; by 21.8 % in the Siberian Federal District; by 33.7 % (from 8.8 to 5.5 for 1000 alive births) in Krasnoyarsk Territory. The main causes of infant mortality in the territory are: conditions occurring in perinatal period, external causes and congenital anomalies (malformations). Decrease of infant mortality in the territory is primarily determined by the decrease in the number of deaths among children under 1 year of age due to the above-mentioned causes. Despite the annual decrease in infant mortality rate, on average, every third death occurs in the first 28 days of a child’s life. When studying the morbidity of newborns, one can mark a steady decline of the indicator both in the Russian Federation and in Krasnoyarsk Territory. At the same time, every year more than 80 % of absolute number of sick newborns falls on full-term babies. Conclusion. Th e results obtained during the study indicate a decrease in infant mortality rate over the study period. Th e study of indicators of infant mortality and morbidity in newborn children is fundamental in the fi eld of maternal and child health. Pediatricians need to pay special attention when examining newborns and children of the first year of life; they should timely identify pathological conditions and diseases, which will help reduce the risk of complications, chronic diseases, and, deaths.
