Abstract:
The main goal of this study is to determine trends in the field of health of children under the age of 1 in Georgia. Methodological basis of this research is the qualitative research, method of cabinet research ("Desk Research"), it was used gathering, descriptive, systematization, comparison, analysis, interpretation of statistical dates. The date on child health indicators were taken from the National Center for Disease Control and Public Health, National Statistics Office of Georgia. The following indicators have been studied: the dynamics of birth, Mortality and Morbidity of children under the age of 0-1, neonatal mortality, early neonatal mortality, late neonatal mortality, perinatal mortality, stillbirth. For studying the legal basis, we used Regulations of the Government of Georgia and normative acts of the Ministry of Labor, Health and Social Protection. 0-1 years old Child mortality, perinatal, neonatal, early neonatal mortality rates was decreased. The rate of late neonatal mortality, stillbirth, perinatal mortality and ratio of stillbirth with early neonatal mortality was increased. Incidence of "Infections specific to the perinatal period "and "Bacterial sepsis of newborn" was increased. Among the reasons of 0-1 year's old child mortality was increased "Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period" and "Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalitis". Among the reasons of 0-1 year's child morbidity was increased "Diseases of the respiratory system", "Diseases of the ear and mastoid process", "Certain infectious and parasitic diseases". High rates of late neonatal mortality, perinatal mortality and stillbirth, increasing incidence of "Infections specific to the perinatal period "and "Bacterial sepsis of newborn", indicates that the quality of antenatal care does not fit to the international standard, The risks of fetus and pregnant woman are not identified and prevented timely, Infections are not diagnosed timely. Because of the delayed identification, prevention and treatment is not adequate.
