Mortalidad evitable, tablas de vida, región Caribe, ColombiaResumo
Actualmente la muerte es un hecho inevitable, sin embargo, la esperanza de vida ha cambiado de forma importante en el tiempo y aún en nuestros días difiere ampliamente entre grupos humanos. El avance de la tecnología sanitaria ha permitido que ciertas muertes puedan controlarse, postergarse o evitarse. Por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación es medir el impacto que tienen las causas de muerte evitable, sobre las variables demográficas en la Región Caribe colombiana,1999-2014. Para lograrlo, se utilizó el método de eliminación hipotética de causas de muertes usando tablas de vidas. Los resultados indican que sí en el periodo de estudio se hubiesen evitado algunas muertes a causa de enfermedades del sistema circulatorio y causas externas de mortalidad, la esperanza de vida de esta población se hubiera prolongado significativamente.
