Abstract

Introduction. Currently, there is a shortage of official indicators on the incidence of mental disorders among minors in the Russian Federation. Objectiveof the study: to analyze indicators of childhood and adolescence incidence of mental disorders in a comparative aspect in the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District. Material and Methods. In the Far Eastern Federal District, a cross-sectional observational study examined data from reporting forms for 2000–2022 on the incidence of mental and behavioral disorders, as well as disability of minors. Results. An increase in indicators of general and primary morbidity in children, primary morbidity in adolescents, and an increase in disability indicators in minors had been established, with a relatively stable number of these age groups. The increase in primary morbidity rates occurred due to all groups of disorders, general morbidity rates in children ‒ due to the group of psychoses, in adolescents ‒ due to the group of non-psychotic mental disorders. At the same time, adolescence morbidity rates consistently exceed those of children. There was a significant difference between the morbidity rates among minors (especially children) in the constituent entities of the Far Eastern Federal District. Conclusion. The identified trends indicate the need to improve the organization of psychiatric care for the children's population of the Far Eastern Federal District, including in terms of improving staffing, financing and material base of regional services.

 

Keywords:child and adolescent psychiatry, general morbidity, primary morbidity, disability, epidemiology, the Far Eastern Federal District.
