ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To show the dynamics of the structure of deaths of the main types of violent and non-violent death on the material of the thanatological department of a separate regional bureau of forensic medical examination. Among the violent causes are considered mechanical injury, mechanical asphyxia, transport injury, poisoning. Among the nonviolent causes of death the diseases of circulatory system, pneumonia, infectious and oncological pathology have been studied. The period from 2001 to 2020 was investigated. Dynamic changes over a selected period are most clearly demonstrated by the ratio of numerical data to the original 2001 indicators taken as 100%. The data presented objectively reflecting the dynamics of the number and proportion of certain types of death are only the initial stage of the analysis undertaken. The second step should be the determination of the causes of the identified changes that require an integrated approach including medical, demographic and socio-economic data.
