Impactul deceselor evitabile în Republica Moldova

Abstract

Avoidable mortality is a problem of public health worldwide and, in particular, at national level. The scientific evaluation of avoidable deaths, their frequency and causes as well as highlighting vulnerable population groups will raise awareness of the diseases that cause these deaths and their major impact. The share of avoidable deaths in the Republic of Moldova in 2007- 2017 accounts for almost half (49.1%) of the total deaths. In 2017 compared to 2007, the number of avoidable deaths decreased by 7 percent. Variations in avoidable deaths recorded in a regional profile demonstrate the existence of a regional specificity, which motivates specific health interventions in these vulnerable areas.
