Risk factors caused by congenital disorders in children

Although some birth defects can be controlled and treated, approximately 3,2 million of these children are lifelong disabled. In addition, birth defects are a leading cause of infant mortality. But where do these shortcomings come from? While some congenital defects are inherited, others are the result of harmful environmental factors known as dermatogens, while others are the result of complex interactions of genetic and environmental influences. But in about half of cases of birth defects, the causes are unknown. Despite the progress made in further deepening the reform of the health care system in our country, strengthening and protecting the health of children, congenital anomalies (developmental defects) play a leading role in the structure of their morbidity, disability and mortality. Among them, 7 500 are said to be infants under one year of age. 60,5% of infant deaths were due to perinatal cases, 16,8% to respiratory defects, 11,7% to congenital anomalies and 11% to other diseases.
