Abstract
The development of the children healthcare in Nalchik District of Terek Region is associated with the development of obstetric and pediatric care in Russia and particularly with the opening of higher women’s medical courses at Saint Petersburg Medical and Surgical Academy in November 1872. Arrival of first maternity nurses in the region was the significant event laying the foundation of the entire children healthcare system in Nalchik District. However, infectious diseases remained the main cause of morbidity and mortality among the children in the district despite all the taken measures. Such situation persisted until determination of Soviet regime in the region and implementation of preventive and socio-hygienic direction in healthcare
