Abstract

Object of the Study. The processes of mortality, and the loss of life potential in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutiya)Subject of the Study. Analyzing the transformation processes taking place in the field of mortality in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutiya), and different characteristics of mortality. The role of external causes of death, and the loss of vital potential of population in the region are revealed.Purpose of the Study. Analyzing features of processes of mortality, the specific distribution of causes of death, identifying characteristics of external mortality in the Republic, determining loss of life potential in the region.The Main Theoretical and Empirical Provisions. In the Republic of Sakha (Yakutiya) external causes of mortality have the same importance as disease of the circulatory system in terms of reduction of losses of demographic potential. Despite a decline in the absolute number of deaths from these causes, mortality rates remain almost at the level of 1990. Suicide contributed almost 25% in the overall mortality rate from external causes, taking over 1st place in the mortality from road traffic accidents.Mortality from external causes are most typical for the working population, over a long period ranked first among causes of death, ahead of cardiovascular diseases and neoplasms.In the case of external causes of death, high mortality of men is manifested especially clearly (men 4.57 times higher than women); and excess is not only not decreasing, but, on the contrary, more and more aggravated.External mortality is particularly significant in the Northern and Arctic regions of the Republic, where the rate is almost twice higher than the death rate average in the Republic.Reducing the loss of vital potential of population of the Republic occurs. However, the loss of vital capacity from external causes of death has increased. In 2010, the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) took 1st place for the potential loss of life from external mortality in men and 3rd place in women compared to other Far Eastern regions. It should define priority measures to reduce mortality from external causes in the hierarchy of the goals and objectives of regional demographic policy. Analysis of mortality from external causes proves once again that not all aspects of health and mortality depend on the health and preventive work within its framework. A deeper interagency approach is required for the purpose of strengthening measures of social prevention, which will be more effective in the decline of mortality from external causes.
