Estratificação econômica e a mortalidade em menores de até 5 anos em Augustinópolis, Tocantins
Abstract
The study aims to analyze the relationship between economic stratification and mortality in children under 5 years of age in the city of Augustinópolis, Tocantins. This is a descriptive research with a quantitative approach of documentary nature, using the Household and Territorial Registration Report of the Department of Primary Care (e-SUS) from 2015 to 2018 and the Report of the Mortality Information System (SIM) of the Frequency of Infant Deaths from 2012 to 2018. The study showed the existence of local economic disparities, as in 2018, 17.05% of families had as income only ¼ (one quarter) or half the minimum wage. There is a jump in the mortality rate from 2013 to 2014, a period of slowdown in the Brazilian economy. In 2017, an increase in the local economy was observed, which in line with this was shown to be a shorter period of mortality. It is believed that mortality rates need to be seen from an economic point of view, so that strategies are put in place to improve the population's living conditions.
