Abstract: Every year there is an increase in diseases of the cardiovascular system, both in childhood and in adolescence (over the past 15 years in Russia more than 2 times). The likelihood of complications and irreversible changes in the body often occurs due to the lack of qualified, timely therapy. At the same time, the complexity and complexity of modern technologies for diagnosing and treating heart disease is constantly increasing. Currently, congenital heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death among other developmental disorders in children. In the Orenburg region, a high prevalence of congenital heart defects remained. The prevalence of congenital carditis and cardiomyopathies was 0.5 ‰ and 0.8 ‰, respectively, and there was no significant improvement in early diagnosis of CHD. Infant mortality from CHD has decreased. Infant mortality from CHD has decreased. The structure of congenital heart defects was dominated by malformations with enrichment of the pulmonary circulation (MCC), such as ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect and common ductus arteriosus. Vices with impoverishment of the pulmonary circulation, such as Fallot's tetrad, pulmonary artery stenosis, and Ebstein's anomaly, ranked second, and vices with normal blood flow in the pulmonary circulation, such as aortic coarctation, aortic stenosis, and mitral valve stenosis, ranked third. A high percentage of late-onset congenital heart defects leading to mortality persisted.
