Abstract

This study was conducted in order to study the dynamics of indicators characterizing the state of public health, in particular, medical and demographic processes, in the Vilyui group of districts of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) over a 30-year period (1990 – 2019). There was a need for a more thorough study of the health of the population living in Mirninsky, Suntarsky, Nyurbinsky, Verkhnevilyuisky and Vilyuisky districts. The analysis of the following medical and demographic indicators in these areas was carried out in comparison with other regions of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia): birth rate, total mortality, natural population growth, and infant mortality. It was revealed that the medical and demographic situation in the Vilyui group of districts was generally favorable. Only Mirninsky (in terms of fertility) and Suntarsky (in terms of infant mortality) districts had separate unfavorable positions. Particular attention was paid to the dynamics of changes in medical and demographic indicators over the past 3 years. The results of the study will make it possible at an early stage to note adverse changes in the state of health, in particular, medical and demographic indicators, and to implement appropriate preventive measures. Such measures can also be envisaged on the basis of systematic medical and environmental monitoring of the health of the population and environmental factors (a complex of natural, man-made and socio-economic factors).
