Постинтубационный рубцовый стеноз гортани у детей раннего возраста является клинически значимым состоянием, особенно у пациентов, перенесших интенсивную терапию и длительную интубацию. В Казахстане большинство детей с данной патологией получают лечение в Университетском медицинском центре, однако данные об их нутритивном статусе остаются ограниченными. Хроническая обструкция верхних дыхательных путей может приводить к увеличению энергозатрат, нарушению глотания и снижению потребления пищи, что потенциально повышает риск недостаточности питания. Целью данного исследования стала оценка антропометрических показателей нутритивного статуса у детей раннего возраста с постинтубационным рубцовым стенозом гортани.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. Было проведено одноцентровое ретроспективное описательное исследование на основе медицинской документации 95 детей в возрасте до 5 лет с постинтубационным рубцовым стенозом гортани, проходивших лечение в Университетском медицинском центре. Физическое развитие оценивалось в соответствии со стандартами ВОЗ (2006 г.) с использованием антропометрических показателей Z-score: масса тела к возрасту, рост к возрасту и масса тела к росту. Значения Z-score ниже −2 стандартных отклонений (SD) расценивались как признаки нарушения питания.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. Дефицит массы тела (по показателю «масса тела к возрасту») был выявлен у 27,4 % детей, а задержка линейного роста (по показателю «рост к возрасту») − у 23,2 % пациентов. Признаки острого нарушения питания (по показателю «масса тела к росту») были зафиксированы у 28,4 % детей. Дополнительное энтеральное питание получали 20,0 % пациентов. Полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что у значительной части детей раннего возраста с постинтубационным рубцовым стенозом гортани наблюдаются антропометрические признаки как острых, так и хронических нарушений питания.</p></sec><sec><title>Выводы</title><p>Выводы. У детей раннего возраста, госпитализированных с постинтубационным рубцовым стенозом гортани, выявлена высокая частота нарушений нутритивного статуса, включая дефицит массы тела, истощение (вастинг) и задержку линейного роста. Результаты исследования подтверждают необходимость проведения рутинного скрининга нутритивного статуса, раннего выявления пациентов группы риска и дальнейших проспективных исследований для оценки роли нутритивной поддержки в комплексном ведении детей с хронической обструкцией верхних дыхательных путей.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. Post-intubation cicatricial laryngeal stenosis in young children is a clinically significant condition, particularly among patients who have undergone intensive care and prolonged intubation. In Kazakhstan, most children with this condition are treated at the University Medical Center, while data on their nutritional status remain limited. Chronic upper airway obstruction may increase energy expenditure, impair swallowing, and reduce food intake, potentially increasing the risk of undernutrition. This study aimed to evaluate anthropometric indicators of nutritional status in young children with post-intubation cicatricial laryngeal stenosis.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. A single-center retrospective descriptive study was conducted using medical records of 95 children under 5 years of age with post-intubation cicatricial laryngeal stenosis treated at the University Medical Center. Physical development was assessed according to the 2006 WHO Child Growth Standards using anthropometric Z-score indices: weight-for-age, height-for-age, and weight-for-height. Z-score values below −2 SD were considered indicative of nutritional impairment.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. Underweight according to weight-for-age was identified in 27.4 % of children, while linear growth delay according to height-for-age was found in 23.2 % of patients. Signs of acute nutritional impairment according to weight-for-height were recorded in 28.4 % of children. Additional enteral nutrition was administered to 20.0 % of patients. These findings indicate that a substantial proportion of young children with post-intubation cicatricial laryngeal stenosis demonstrate anthropometric signs of both acute and chronic nutritional impairment.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. Young children hospitalized with post-intubation cicatricial laryngeal stenosis showed a high frequency of impaired nutritional status, including underweight, wasting, and linear growth delay. The results support the need for routine nutritional screening, early identification of at-risk patients, and further prospective studies evaluating the role of nutritional support in the comprehensive management of children with chronic upper airway obstruction.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>постинтубационный рубцовый стеноз гортани</kwd><kwd>дети</kwd><kwd>нутритивный статус</kwd><kwd>белково-энергетическая недостаточность</kwd><kwd>антропометрия.</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>post-intubation cicatricial laryngeal stenosis</kwd><kwd>children</kwd><kwd>nutritional status</kwd><kwd>protein-energy malnutrition</kwd><kwd>anthropometry.</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Calder, P.
