[The scientific rationale and basic methodological principles for creating government statistics on childhood disability in the Russian Federation].
The authors necessitate the creation in Russia of a new system of state statistical registration of childhood invalidity based on territorial registers of disabled children, which will make available the statistical data characterizing this population both at the regional and federal levels of government. At present such information in our country is virtually unavailable, this impeding the development of scientifically based programs of medicosocial and pedagogical aid to such children and their families. Methodological principles of organization of such a register at a territorial level are described, which will permit including the information collection for the register into the already existing in Russia system of official registration of disabled children and coordinate it with the international recommendations on relevant problems.
