Abstract

This article highlights the results of the analysis of digestive system diseases, which are risk factors for a duodenum ulcer disease development. This pathology is the second rate such in adults as in children at present. The prevalence of chronic gastritis and duodenitis among school-age children are 27,66% in the structure of the prevalence of diseases of the digestive system of this age group. The prevalence of chronic gastritis and duodenitis among children aged 15–17 years is 3.89 times higher than among children aged 0–14 years. Our researches have shown a high level of the prevalence of the digestive system various diseases among children, which are risk factors for the development of duodenal ulcer diseases. The current situation may be linked not only with economic instability, but also with the prevalence of harmful habits among children, neglect of a healthy lifestyle, etc.

The objective: to study the influence of risk factors on the status of digestive system diseases in school-age children, primarily – of a duodenum ulcer disease.

Materials and methods. The method of semantic evaluation of scientific documents and the method of system and process analysis were used.

Results. Analysis of the studies show that there has been a lack of attention of parents, health workers and teachers to improve the physical activity of children. The reduction of physical activity of school-age children, restrictions on sports, as well as the majority of children «sedentary» lifestyle reduce energy costs, while the energy value of diets is growing. The dynamics of the distribution of schoolage children by health groups indicates a decrease the number of children with the first group of health according to school age in 2016: 21,5% (Junior), 12,6% (average), 10,8% (senior), while their peers 50 years ago there was a different proportion of the increase in the number of healthy children, in particular, 36,5% (Junior), 47,1% (middle), 62,0% (senior school age) with age. The definition of risk factors for child’s health allows us to determine the real threat to the schoolage children health, and makes it possible to prevent the duodenal ulcer disease in the early stages by of preventive measures.

Conclusion. The researches results indicate an increase in the incidence, deterioration of physical and neuropsychological development, decrease in the level of physical activity of school-age children, which should be taken into account in the organization of treatment and preventive care for schoolchildren and is a confirmation of negative trends in the health of children in the modern world stage.
