Dynamics of disability due to diseases of the genitourinary system in Ukraine and its regions

The dynamics of the primary recognized invalids due to diseases of the genitourinary system in general in Ukraine in two periods: 2008-2012 and 2013-2017 years are presented. The results were analyzed and compared with the indicators in five regions of the country, taking into account the areas of their composition. Official reporting data was used.

A decrease in the number of primarily recognized disabled persons, whose structure is prevalent in persons of working age, is set to be 28,9% and 26,4%, respectively, among the total adult and able-bodied population, over the last five years. In 2017, they numbered 1,770 and 1,526 persons, respectively. Positive changes have appeared in a similar tendency among the contingent up to 40 years (by 15,3%). At the same time, the percentage of invalids with the newly established I group (from 14,2±0,9% to 20,7±1,7% in the first and second periods, respectively) is authentically growing. The main tendencies of this process in the regions and oblasts are determined, which will be the basis for the development of regional programs for the prevention of development and complicated course of urological diseases, as well as rehabilitation of the disabled.
