EVALUATION OF HOSPITAL MORBITY AND NEOPLASM MORTALITY: 2015 – 2019

Abstract

Introduction: Currently, one of the biggest public health problems is chronic non-communicable diseases, which have generated a high number of premature deaths. Objective: To analyze hospital morbidity and mortality in the population aged between 10 and 59 years in Brazil, in the period from 2015 to 2019. Methodology: This is a quantitative, observational study, whose research method is characterized by an ecological epidemiological study of time series in a historical series of the last five years (2015-2019) available in mid-April 2021, and extracted from the national public domain base of the Ministry of Health entitled DATASUS - SUS Informatics Department. Results: It was observed that the distribution of the mortality rate due to neoplasia, per 100,000 inhabitants due to CID-BR-10 in a population aged between 10 and 59 years, was due to malignant neoplasm of the breast, as the second leading cause of deaths due to neoplasia in the five-year period, followed by malignant neoplasm of the trachea, bronchi and lungs, malignant neoplasm of the colon, rectum and anus, malignant neoplasm of the stomach and malignant neoplasm of the meninges, brain and other parts of the central nervous system. Regarding the hospital morbidity rate from the most prevalent causes, it is observed that the uterus leiomyoma has the highest average in the period observed (39,454), median of 38.88 and standard deviation of 2.03, followed by other in situ neoplasms and benign neoplasms and neoplasms of uncertain or unknown behavior with a mean of 31,724, a median of 30.88 and a standard deviation of 0.66. Conclusions: The analysis of health indicators for neoplasms shows the growing trend in the five years of hospital morbidity and mortality. So that they stand out that they are the target of more research and attention.
