While studying hygiene and medical ecology, the students should acquire the knowledge of: methodology, basic laws of a hygienic science and common laws of relation of health with factors and conditions of the environment. origin, characteristics and laws of influence of the basic natural and technogenic factors of the environment and social conditions on the ecological situation and health of the population. methodology of studying the influence of the environmental factors and conditions on health of various groups of population; qualitative and quantitative parameters of hygienic estimation of the environment condition and its influence on health of the population. methodology and principles of hygienic regulation of harmful factors in the environment, organization and contents of preventive and current sanitary supervision over medical-preventive establishments, inhabited and other objects of sanitary-municipal purpose, establishments of nutrition, children's and educational establishments, enterprises of industrial and agricultural manufacture. bases of a healthy lifestyle, personal hygiene and balanced diet, to be able to prove recommendations for prevention of various diseases. In the future professional activity the hygienic knowledge and practical skills are necessary for the doctor in the following situations: At differential diagnostics of diseases, administration of treatment, medical-preventive conditions and medical-labour examination. In the work on professional orientation, professional training and employment of persons with a different level of health. At estimation and maintenance of sanitary-hygienic and antiepidemic conditions of medical-preventive establishments, institutions of preschool, school and professional 5 training, establishments of public catering and others. For optimization of conditions of life, education, training, work, prevention of intrahospital and other infections, substantiation of recommendations on personal hygiene, balanced diet. At development and realization of complex programs of prevention of various diseases. In the work on propaganda of medical knowledge and hygienic education of various groups of population. Theme No 1. Subject and Tasks of Hygiene and Ecology Hygiene as a Medical Science In medicine it is possible to distinguish 2 areas: medical and preventive. They are interrelated and supplement each other, but are separate scientific disciplines. The object of studying clinical medicine is a sick person (patient); its aim is diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The preventive medicine or "hygiene" (from Greek — "bringing health") studies a healthy person (individual health) or health of the population of a region or country (population health) with the purpose of maintaining or improvement of health. Specialists in this area are referred to as doctors-hygienists or sanitary inspectors (abroad — doctors of public health). The task of studying hygiene in medical university is to inculcate hygienic thinking in a future doctor, which means: to be able to connect the occurrence of disease in a separate person or certain population of people with the influence of factors of the environmental, industrial or household surroundings, with sanitary conditions of life to be able to develop the appropriate measures for prevention of negative influence of adverse environment factors on human health. The Concept of Hygiene Hygiene is a medical science studying the influence of environmental factors on a human organism and on public health in order to prove hygienic measures, sanitary rules and measures for maintenance and improvement of a human health and prevention of diseases. Factors Influencing the Health of Population According to the data of the World Health Organization (WHO), the health of population of any country of the world depends on the following factors: in 48-53% — on socio-economic conditions in the country or region and a lifestyle of a person (physical training, smoking, etc.) in 18-20 % — on the genetic factor (spread of hereditary illnesses in population) in 17-20 % — on quality (degree of pollution) of the environment in 8-10 % — on level of development and quality of medical aid. Thus, the improvement of quality of the environment can theoretically produce a positive effect two times greater than that of the development of the clinical medicine. It shows the significance of preventive medicine or hygiene for improvement of health of population. 6 The Origin and Development of Hygiene A centuries-old history of hygiene can be conditionally divided into 2 periods: Empirical hygiene (experimental hygiene) is a gradual accumulation of hygienic knowledge by people from the time of primitive society on the basis of own experience
