DETERMINATION OF MORPHOMETRIC INDICATORS IN CHILDREN BORN WITH HEART DEFECTS
Abstract
Relevance of the topic. Congenital heart defects are a disease characterized by the appearance of anomalies during the development of the fetus in the mother's womb, sometimes after birth due to the formation of the heart and large blood vessel[3]. Congenital heart disease accounts for 1 percent of heart disease and more than 1 percent in children under 1 year of age[1]. The medical and social importance of this problem is that it is currently one of the main causes of death of children aged 1-2 months, not only in our country, but in all regions. 54.4% die within 1 year of life and 84.4% before 5 years. According to statistics, the average life expectancy for the most common congenital heart defects is 15 to 20 years. For this reason, supporters of surgical treatment in the first months and years[2].
