RESUMO
One of the priority areas of socio-economic development of Russia is concern about health status of young generation, as young people provide the near future and determine demographic economic and social potential of society. The purpose of the study is to implement comparative assessment of health status of students of Medical University and to identify risk factors of development of chronic non-communicable diseases. The article presents data of sociological survey and medical examination (indicators of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, capillary blood for glucose and cholesterol). The risk factors were determined by 7 parameters: high blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), tachycardia, hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, smoking, lack of exercise. The comparative evaluation of the average functional and biochemical parameters of medical students made it possible to identify statistically significant increasing of systolic blood pressure and total cholesterol in female students in 2018. The evaluation of the structure of risk factors demonstrated that tachycardia is the most frequently detected functional deviation. It was observed in 61% of boys and 27% of girls in 2015 and of boys and 33% of girls in 2018. The evaluation of state of health and identification of risk factors of development of chronic non-infectious diseases of student youth in the learning process involves differentiated focus on the development of preventive measures to strengthen and maintain health with the formation of healthy lifestyle. The effective solution of this problem is possible with the interaction of health care, system of higher professional education and other interested structures.
