The characteristics of medical demographic indices in the Jewish autonomous oblast

Abstract

The research in the field of regional trends and risk factors related to population morbidity is considered as background of management decision-making in health care. The article presents the results of analysis of medical demographic indices and population health status in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast in 2000-2019. It is established that in in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast population size reduced by 35 100 people to 2019. The negative migration dispositions facilitate losses of population size from 0.5% to 1.23% annually. The gradual increase of number of the elderly brought to ratio working/non-working people 100 to 128. The infant mortality rate decreased from 20.2 in 2000 to 9.2 per 1000 newborns in 2019 and continues to decrease. The total morbidity increase (diagnosed for the first time) of cardiovascular diseases and neoplasms is probably related to preventive measures efficiency. In the structure of malignant neoplasms leading positions are taken by tumors of bronchopulmonary system, skin affections and breast cancer. In the Jewish Autonomous Oblast, mortality of cardiovascular diseases comprised 807.32±22.87 per 100 000 of population. In the last decade, this most important indicator decreased up to 2.12%. The mortality of malignant neoplasms made up to 217.31±15.25 per 100 000 of population. The mortality due to consolidated causes "Traumas, poisonings and some other consequences of external causes exposure" made up to 16.19±3.28 per 100 000 of population. In 2019, the average life interval made up to 68.8 years, having increased by 6.2 years since 2000. The evaluation of medical demographic indices and population health status demonstrate necessity of adjusting medical organizational measures targeting to improve medical care of population considering regional characteristics.
