Clinical following-up of children born to a-HCV/HBSAg-positive women referred to a risk group for vertical transmission of hepatitis C/B viruses is one of the most important areas of medical care for this group of patients. The data of the analysis of the organization, quality and effectiveness of dispensary observation of children from the «risk groups» for the vertical transmission of HCV/HBV infection are presented. The unsatisfactory quality and effectiveness of the dispensary observation of this category of patients has been established. Inadequate medical activity and awareness of doctors on the prevention of parenteral viral hepatitis have been identified. There is substantiated the necessity of implementing a multi-level system for the prophylaxis of viral hepatitis C/B in a system encompassing both a child and a mother based on continuity at each of its stages, which will allow reduce the number of infected children of younger age groups.
