Several peculiarities of the incidence rate of out-of-hospital pneumonia and acute otitis media in the Altai Territory
The purpose of the study - to evaluate the incidence of community-acquired pneumonia and acute otitis media and to explore the role of S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae in Barnaul. As part of a prospective multicenter clinical and epidemiological studies and prospective cohort study to assess the incidence of community-acquired pneumonia and acute otitis media, as well as exploring the role of S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae in the etiology of these diseases, we have shown that these nosology represent a significant problem in children under the age of 5 years in Barnaul. Given the fact that pneumococcal infection is controlled today, the introduction of mass immunization against the disease will significantly reduce the incidence presented nosological forms.
