abstract: A comparative analysis of single and recurrent infant morbidity according to type and course of delivery and to kind of drugs used was performed in this study. A total of 3676 infants born between 1983-1993 was examined. This group was divided into four groups according to date of delivery 1983-1984, 1985-1987, 1988-1990 and 1991-1993). A steady were in the number of spontaneous and cesearian deliveries was noticed. The number of forceps and vacuum extractor deliveries was significantly decreased. A higher morbidity was observed among infants from breech and vacuum deliveries and among those from families with numerous children. Upper respiratory tract infections and allergic dermatitis occurred most frequently. The greathy declining trend of usage for the use of antibiotics in upper respiratory tract and urinary tract infections was observed. The use of two or more antibiotics per therapy was the most common in brachial and lung infections.
