Controversial questions of medical statistical registration of congenital infections

Abstract

Medical aid improvement in the cases of congenital infections (CI) is one of the most important problems in modern obstetrics and perinatology. The true incidence of congenital infections is not known. One of the reasons for this situation is the lack of common approaches to diagnostics and registration of congenital infections. Use of a standard definition of CI will allow providing the common approaches to diagnostics and registration of congenital infections both in maternity hospitals and hospitals for children.
