Regulatory provision of organization of preventive medical examinations of children, forms of accounting of their results, clinical audit for assessing the quality of conducting preventive medical examinations of schoolchildren and data on their health. Sample scope – 2,081 electronic forms No. 112/o. Methods of research: bibliosemantic, informational-analytical, clinical thematic audit, sociological, medical-statistical, system analysis and conceptual modeling.

Results. There is a discrepancy between sectoral regulatory and accounting documents in terms of determining and taking into account the index of body mass index. The organization of medical and sociological monitoring of obesity in children for the health facility is substantiated, in line with the European WHO Child Surveillance Surveillance Initiative.
