STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY
The health of the nation is the main resource for the development of the state. The deterioration of health, such as the spread of dangerous diseases and the deterioration in the duration of a healthy life, impedes sustainable socio-economic development of the state. To save the population, we should influence such as important demographic process as mortality. Therefore, a comparative statistical analysis of mortality in a particular region and in the Russian Federation is very relevant. The purpose of the study is a statistical study of morbidity and mortality in the Russian Federation. The object of the study is morbidity and mortality of the population of the Samara region and the Russian Federation. The subject of the study is variable-based regularities of morbidity and mortality in the Russian Federation and the Samara region. The study was based on the integrated approach and statistical methods. The study is original due to the formation of the information-methodological approach, including the identification of qualitatively different groups of regions according to the morbidity rate by the method of typological grouping, as well as the modernization of the analysis methodology with the analysis of health outcomes; in the latter case, we used an indicator of unfavorable health outcomes, calculated as the ratio of mortality to morbidity. The territorial features of morbidity and mortality of the population should be taken into account when developing options for managerial decisions, federal and regional programs that determine demographic and social policies for improving the population.
Keywords: morbidity, mortality, dynamics, indicators, unfavorable health outcomes.
Highlights:
• the structural and dynamic approach to the analysis of interrelation of morbidity and mortality of the population at the federal and regional levels was carried out;
• the typological statistical regrouping of regions of Russia on the basis of morbidity of the population to identify the changes in the structure of similar types of subjects was carried out;
• the analysis of health outcomes using the indicator of unfavorable health outcomes was improved.
