Pediatrics Diagnosis and treatment of diseases of children
Pediatrics (from the Greek. Páis, race. Case paidós - baby, child and iatréia - treatment), a branch of medicine that studies the anatomy and physiology of the child's body at different ages. Pediatrics examines the causes and mechanisms of childhood diseases and develop methods for their treatment.
A sick child - it is always anxiety, and sometimes the sorrow of the family. In such cases, can only help modern pediatrics. For concern is well founded. Over the past 10 years, the incidence of children in the CIS under the age of 15 has increased by 40-50 percent, and at the age of 15 to 17 years - more than half. In the 2.5-fold increased incidence of newborns. There is a growing incidence of diseases in children, once considered a disease of adults: peptic ulcer, cardiovascular disease, cancer, endocrine diseases, especially diabetes, neurological disorders - they increasingly affect children.
