The infant mortality included in the structure of the mortality of children population is considered to be one of the major demographic factors most clearly reflecting the country’s level of the development and on-going economic and social changes. The infant mortality rate is a key index of the development of the health system. The significance of the infant mortality rate is determined by its high contribution to the child mortality rate in general. So the share of deaths among children aged 0-14 years in infants of the first year of life amounts of 55% to 65%. 40% of newborns died in the early neonatal period and 30% babies - in the post-neonatal period. In accordance with the Concept of the demographic policy of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2025 approved by the decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated 09.10.07 No. 315, one of the most important tasks of the demographic policy in the country is the reduction of the infant mortality rate at least by two times. The correct and timely analysis of the infant mortality rate allows developing a set of specific measures to reduce the morbidity and mortality rate of children, to assess the effectiveness of measures to describe and to plan the work for the protection of motherhood and childhood in general. In the article there is presented the analysis of the underlying causes and dynamics of the infant mortality in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) over the period of the implementation of major projects in the field of health. The development and implementation of a three-level system of medical care for pregnant women and mothers in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) was the key to the reducing this index.

Infant mortality is an important indicator of the social well-being of society and reflects the state of the national health system as a whole. According to official statistics, the infant mortality rate in the Russian Federation has reached a significant decrease in recent years, but in comparison with the leading countries of the world it still remains high. The study found that in the Russian Federation infant mortality has a territorial differentiation, which indicates different policies of the executive authorities of the regions in the direction related to the reduction of infant mortality. The review article contains data on the dynamics of infant mortality in the Republic of Ingushetia and other republics of the North Caucasus Federal District. A significant decrease in the infant mortality rate in the Republic of Ingushetia is shown as a result of the effective interaction of state authorities at all levels. The need for an integrated approach in the system of management decisions for the development of the perinatal service in the regions of the Russian Federation has been proved.

An important role in the normal development of the fetus and the successful outcome of pregnancy is played by the state of health of pregnant women. One of the significant factors of perinatal risk is anemia of pregnant women. In order to assess the level and dynamics of the incidence of anemia in pregnant women, official statistical reports and publications of the Federal State Statistics Service for 2005-2017 and Central Research Institute for Organization and Informatization of Health of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation for 2012-2018 were analyzed. Using a trend analysis using a trend method, a prognosis was made for the incidence of anemia in pregnant women up to 2021 in the Russian Federation as a whole and separately in the North-West Federal District. In order to assess the impact of the predictor “anemia of pregnant women” on the infant mortality rate, data from primary medical documentation was copied to 250 children who died before the age of 1 year in the North-West Federal District. It has been established that the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in the North-West Federal District significantly exceeds the average level in the Russian Federation. Provided that factors affecting the course of pregnancy remain unchanged, the incidence of anemia in pregnant women by 2021 on average in the Russian Federation will decrease to 32.2% of the number of women who have completed pregnancy, and in the North-West Federal District will increase to 37.5%. During pregnancy, the incidence of anemia in women whose child died before the age of 1 year in the North-West Federal District amounted to 44.16 ± 0.39% of the number of women who completed the pregnancy, which significantly exceeded the average figure in the district, which in 2017 was equal to 35.90 ± 0.35% (p < 0.05). A direct correlation has been established between the predictor “anemia in pregnant women” and the infant mortality rate.

Abstract Background Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is one of the leading causes of infant death and it caused the death of 40 thousand babies around the world in 2017. In the Russian Federation, there are no large and long-term studies of the epidemiology of SIDS. Methods A descriptive study of infant mortality associated with SIDS in the regions of the Russian Federation in 2019 according to the Federal State Statistics Service. Results In 2019, SIDS caused the death of 259 children and ranked 7th in the structure of infant mortality. The infant mortality rate due to SIDS was 0.17 per 1000 live births (median for the regions of the Russian Federation - 0.13, IR 0.0 - 0.27). The infant mortality rate due to SIDS among the rural population was 0.27 per 1000 live birth in the relevant area, among the urban population - 0.14, among boys - 0.20, among girls - 0.15 per 1000 live birth of the corresponding sex. From 2008 to 2019, the indicator in the Russian Federation decreased by 56% (in 2008 - 0.39 per 1000 live birth). The highest infant mortality rate due to SIDS in 2019 was recorded in the Far Eastern Federal District (0.31 per 1000 live births), the lowest was in the Central FD (0.10). SIDS was not recorded in 28 constituent entities, in 4 of them there was not a single case for the period from 2013 to 2019. In 21 regions, the infant mortality rate was higher than 0.27 per 1000 per live birth. The relative risk of SIDS was quite variable across the regions of the Russian Federation. Conclusions The analysis revealed the scatter of the infant mortality rate due to SIDS among the regions of the Russian Federation. It is necessary to study the problem of SIDS at the state level to explain the results. Key messages The development and implementation of programs for the prevention of SIDS should be based on the study of the epidemiology of this pathology in each region separately and in the country as a whole. Significant differences in the infant mortality rate due to SIDS among the regions of Russian Federation require detailed study.

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.


We studied the medical and demographic indicators in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) for the last 20 years (1998–2018). A decrease in the population by 4,7 % (р<0,01) was revealed in the Russian Federation in the period 1998–2008, 3,4 % decrease, followed by its growth by 2,8 % (р<0,01); a decrease in the number of rural population in the republic and an increase in the urban population were observed. By the beginning of 2019, in comparison with the 2003 data, an increase in the population by 1.9% (р<0,01), a decrease in the number of able-bodied people in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) at the beginning of 2019, as compared to 1998, were revealed, by 8,2 %, in the Russian Federation – by 4,7 % (р<0,01). In the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) the birth rate remains high, the mortality rate is relatively low, and the natural population growth is maintained.

The review presents the literature data and, revealed by authors, the patterns of changes in the dynamics of the infant mortality rate and its structure over a long period (2005-2017) in St. Petersburg. This index is one of the lowest in the Russian Federation. There are analyzed changes in the individual components of the structure of the infant mortality rate, related both to objective and subjective factors. In the city of St. Petersburg there was shown a persistent decline in the infant mortality rate due to the implementation of federal and city programs, closely correlated with structural components. The authors believe the positive dynamics of structural components in St. Petersburg to indicate the organization of all types of specialized and high-tech medical care for newborns.

The primary purpose of the present study was to determine whether there are infant deaths not included in infant mortality rate calculations declared by the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health since 2009, and if so, to investigate the dimension of these deaths. The secondary purpose of this study was to calculate the presence, magnitude, and the direction of change of interregional inequalities over the years. The study revealed that infant mortality rates included in statistics by the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health since 2009 do not reflect real mortality rates and conceal 36% to 57% of infant deaths occurring annually. In addition, the study also showed an increase in interregional inequalities over the years with respect to infant mortality rates.

Introduction. The solution to the problem of ensuring demographic growth is one of the most pressing issues of the state policy. In 2007, Russia’s demographic policy was supplemented by new measures to stimulate the birth rate. The objective of this paper is to analyze the effectiveness of the demographic policy programs aimed at supporting families and natality using the case studies of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Tatarstan. Materials and Methods. To identify the impact of measures to stimulate the birth rate, the method of regression analysis was used; time series based on age-specific birth rates for each age group were presented. Results. The data obtained showed that the steady trend of increasing the total fertility rate in Russia and Tatarstan since 2007 was almost completely related to the meas- ures under consideration, whereas the number of births was affected by many other factors. According to the results of the study, the impact of measures to increase the birth rate in the Republic of Tatarstan is slightly higher than in Russia as a whole. Discussion and Conclusions. State support measures reduce the costs associated with the birth of a child and can encourage women to have children, which con- firms the hypothesis of the positive impact of the state fertility policy. For a more accurate assessment of the effectiveness of the demographic policy measures, it is advisable to take into account the changing social and economic conditions of life in a region, as well as the consequences of the earlier or present-day demographic policy measures. The results of the study are of practical importance and may be used in the development of demographic policies in the country and in the region.

The article examines the current demographic situation in Russia and assesses its impact on the long-term formation of the labor market. The relevance of the chosen topic is explained by the fact that in recent decades the state of the demographic situation in Russia is unsatisfactory. There are a number of features that slow down the development of the state. Firstly, it is a decrease in the population, secondly, the aging of the economically active population, and thirdly, the high mortality rate of men in working age.

The planning as a key function of management in health care system is focused on target indicators of population health and development of health care sector. The focusing on social economic values of target indicators and setting them as indicators of appropriateness and effectiveness of implementing activities is actual standard ofplanning. For all that, the technique of indicative planning in health care still requires to be putted to level of its theoretical substantiation (prerequisites of becoming, conceptual foundations, terms, requirements to evaluation) and implementation in practice. The example of the Republic of Ingushetia, one of the regions of the Russian Federation, was used to demonstrate becoming of indicative planning and its development with the purpose of effective management. The emphasis is made on terms system, approaches of choosing and monitoring of target indicators for indicative planning. To present the technique of indicative planning scientifically the monograph method (analysis of reports, statistical data of Rosstat, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and Ministry of Health of the Republic of Ingushetia) was applied. The SWOT analysis of the situation in health care of the region was applied. The infant mortality indicator became the reference point of evaluation of effectiveness of functioning of health care system and social economic reforming in the region. The level and dynamics of infant mortality indicator reflects shortcomings of medical care organization in the region and first of all absence of the three-level system of its rendering, routing according standards of medical care support of patients on main pathology profiles, including pregnant women, women in labor, newborns and children. According to situation, the investment decisions were made on the federal level. To what extent they will be effective i.e. what will be the reaction of values of target indicators of social economic development of the region, primarily indicators of infant mortality, the «road map» should demonstrate.
