title: [Possibilities of adaptation and health status in children left without parental care].
abstract: The study was undertaken to examine the health status of abandoned infants in a sociomedical unit, by characterizing their adaptive capacities and by revealing the factors worsening the processes of adaptation. Adaptive impairments were found in the abandoned babies just at early age. Health status, constitutional type, development harmonicity, and a past parental medical history had a considerable impact on the child's adaptive capacities.
