title: [Monitoring of congenital malformations at the institutions of the Federal Biomedical Agency of Russia].
abstract: The purpose of the study was to estimate the incidence of new cases of congenital malformations (CM) in the population living in the areas supervised by the Federal Biomedical Agency (FBMA) of Russia. The latter has a CM register that is conformity with the recommendations of the EUROCAT, Clearinghouse, and Russian Academy of Medical Sciences. The CM register operates in accordance with the orders of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation (No. 268 dated September 10, 1998) and the FBMA of Russia. In 2000-2005, data on the incidence of new cases of CM were gathered by simultaneously collecting those on the working conditions of the parents of children with CM. The created CM register is a component of sociohygienic monitoring of the population residing in the vicinity of the objects with particularly dangerous working conditions, which are supervised by the FBMA of Russia.
