چکیده

Background: Heart failure (HF) and ischemic heart diseases (IHD) are important causes of death in Brazil. Objective: To assess proportional mortality (PM) due to HF and IHD as underlying causes stratified by sex and age groups in the Brazilian geoeconomic regions from 2004 to 2011. Methods: Data from death certificates were obtained in the DATASUS site under the following International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems codes, 10th Revision: 1) from chapter IX: I20 to I24 for acute IHD, I25 for chronic IHD, and I50 for HF; and 2) from chapter XVIII, for ill-defined causes (IDC). Results: Proportional mortality due to HF increased with age in both sexes and all regions, the highest percentages being found among elderly women. Among men, the highest percentages were observed in the West-Central region up to the ninth decade, but, among the eldest individuals, the highest percentages were identified in the Southern region. Among women, the regions did not differ up to the age group of 70-79 years, although the West-Central region took the lead from 50 to 79 years; however, from the age of 80 years on, the Southern region showed the highest PM due to HF. Proportional mortality due to acute IHD in all Brazilian regions and in both sexes increased up to the age group of 60-69 years, from which it decreased. Among men, the Southeastern region had the highest percentages in the age group of 50-59 years, while women had lower PM due to acute IHD than men in all regions. In both sexes, PM due to chronic IHD increased with age in the Southern and Southeastern regions, which did not happen in the others, while the Southern region had the highest rate of all regions for all age groups. Conclusions: Regional differences were more prominent at more advanced ages, especially when deaths due to IDC were excluded. Fundamento: Insuficiência cardíaca (IC) e doenças isquêmicas do coração (DIC) são importantes causas de morte no Brasil. Objetivo: Avaliar a mortalidade proporcional (MP) por IC e DIC, como causas básicas, estratificada por sexo e faixa etária nas regiões brasileiras de 2004 a 2011. Métodos: As informações das declarações de óbito foram obtidas no site do DATASUS, codificadas conforme a Classificação Estatística Internacional de Doenças e Problemas Relacionados à Saúde, 10ª Revisão: 1) do Capítulo IX: I20 a I24 para DIC aguda, I25 para DIC crônica, e I50 para IC; e 2) do Capítulo XVIII, para causas mal definidas (CMD). Resultados: A MP por IC aumentou com a idade nos dois sexos e em todas as regiões, as mais altas porcentagens sendo encontradas entre as mulheres mais idosas. Entre os homens, as mais altas porcentagens foram observadas na região Centro-Oeste até a nona década; entre os mais idosos, porém, as mais altas porcentagens foram identificadas na região Sul. Entre as mulheres, as regiões não diferiram até a faixa etária de 70-79 anos, embora a região Centro-Oeste tenha liderado dos 50 aos 79 anos; entretanto, a partir dos 80 anos, a região Sul apresentou a mais alta MP por IC. Em todas as regiões brasileiras e nos dois sexos, a MP por DIC aguda aumentou até a faixa etária de 60-69 anos, a partir da qual diminuiu. Entre os homens, a região Sudeste apresentou as mais altas porcentagens na faixa etária de 50-59 anos, enquanto as mulheres tiveram menor MP por DIC aguda em comparação aos homens em todas as regiões. Nos dois sexos, a MP por DIC crônica aumentou com a idade nas regiões Sul e Sudeste, mas não nas demais, enquanto a região Sul apresentou a mais alta MP entre todas as regiões para todas as faixas etárias. Conclusões: Diferenças regionais foram mais marcantes nas idades mais avançadas, especialmente quando excluídas as mortes por CMD.
