title: [Relations between the problem-oriented education of patients and quality of treatment and efficiency of rehabilitation of children with chronic diseases].
abstract: Research aimed at development and introduction of effective forms of organization and methods of health improvement, compensation, and rehabilitation of patients with chronic diseases acquire special significance today. However, the actual economic and social conditions in the Russian Federation dictate the development and introduction of the least expensive and at the same time sufficiently effective methods for treatment and rehabilitation. Topical training of chronic patients is such a method. One more aspect necessitating such research is essential increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases and disability among children. Special attention is paid to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, asthma, and chronic gastrointestinal diseases, often leading to stable (sometimes for life) disability; treatment, rehabilitation, and follow-up of such patients are very expensive, which makes the problem a pressing one.
