Abstract
The article describes one of the topical issues related to the study of social aspects of children tuberculosis that is the justification of substantial criteria of for defining social status of different families. The objective of the study is to compare social features of the families with children and adolescents ill with respiratory tuberculosis based on the differential approach to the assessment of social adaptation of the family.
Social characteristics of families of 239 children and adolescents have been studied, all the children and adolescents were examined and treated in Central Tuberculosis Research Institute in 2016-2017. This differential approach to social status assessment has allowed identifying two groups: functional families (49.4%) and families facing a high social risk (50.6% of cases). When comparing and analyzing two types of families, who had children and adolescents suffering from tuberculosis, it has been found out that those families differed from the social and economic point of view. The features common for certain types of families both with children and adolescents were the parents' level of education and particular employment of fathers. The remaining criteria (family structure, mothers' employment, accommodation, income size) were confidently different in the families of children and adolescents. The article demonstrates the need for a comprehensive analysis of the family in order to define its social status.
