Abstract: The article, devoted to the literature review, considers the current problems of assessing the risk factors for the birth of children with low birth weight. The birth of children with low birth weight remains a serious medical problem that requires a careful and comprehensive approach. According to the literature, the frequency of premature births in different countries ranges from 5 to 12%, in Russia about 7.7% of births are premature. This category of infants has a higher probability of disability, development of severe somatic diseases and CNS pathology. According to foreign countries, among children weighing up to 500 g, 12% survive, from 500 to 749 g - 50%, from 750 to 1000 g about 80% of children. However, in addition to medical aspects, it is important to take into account social factors that have a significant impact on the health and development of these babies. This article examines the role of social aspects in assessing and supporting the health of children born with low birth weight in order to identify possible ways to improve their quality of life.
