Abstract		Background. The protection of the health of the Slovenian population is planned within the framework of the European health care policy and achievement of the goals of Health for All by the year 2000. Data on the mortality are among the most reliable rountinely collected data in Slovenia; they are used for the assessment and control of the health of the population as part of work in social medicine. The purpose of this report on mortality in Slovenia in 1995 is to draw attention to the significance of correct diagnosis and recording of the causes of death, and to provide feedback information to those who establish the causes of death and record on mortality data. Methods. This paper is a simple cross-section of the situation regarding mortality in one year. Data on the population and mortality in Slovenia in 1995 from the database on mortality of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia were used. The database is composed of data from Physicians' Certificate of Death and Report on the Causes of Death forms. Basic mortality rates, standardised death rate (SDR) and years of potential life lost (YPLL) were calculated. Adult inhabitants and the deseased were divided by age groups, by sex and nine health care regions. Data for three most frequent causes were presented. Results. For several decades, the mortality rates for the whole of Slovenia have been in the range of 9.5 to 10 deceased per 1000 inhabitants. Men die more frequently, and at a younger age than women; the YPLL rate for men is higher than for women. (Abstract truncated at 2000 characters.)
Summary		Izhodišča. Varovanje zdravja prebivalstva je v Sloveniji začrtano v okviru evropske zdravstvene politike in doseganja Ciljev zdravja za vse do leta 2000. Za ocenjevanje in nadzorovanje zdravstvenega stanja se uporabljajo tudi podatki o umrlih, ki sodijo med najbolj zanesljive rutinsko zbrane zdravstvene podatke pri nas. Namen pričujočega opisa umrljivosti v Sloveniji v letu 1995 je opozoriti na smisel pravilnega diagnosticiranja in evidentiranja vzrokov smrti ter posredovati povratne informacije tistim ki ugotavljajo vzroke smrti in evidentirajo podatke o umrlih. Metode. Prispevek je enostaven prerez stanja enoletne umrljivosti. Uporabili smo podatke o prebivalcih in umrlih v Sloveniji v letu 1995 iz zbirke podatkov o umrlih Urada Republike Slovenije za statistiko. Zbirka temelji na podatkih iz Zdravniškega potrdila o smrti in poročila o vzrokih smrti. Izračunali smo osnovne stopnje umrljivosti, starostno standardizirane stopnje (SSSU) in prezgodnjo umrljivost (years of potential life lost - YPLL). Prebivalce in umrle smo razdelili po spolu v starostne skupine in v devet zdravstvenih območij. Prikazali smo tri najpogostejše vzroke smrti. Rezultati. Stopnja umrljivosti v Sloveniji kot celoti se že nekaj desetletij giblje od 9,5 do 10 umrlih na 1000 pebivalcev. Moški umirajo pogosteje in mlajši kot ženske, stopnja prezgodnje umrljivosti moških je višja, kot stopnja prezgodnje umrljivosti žensk. Slovenijo lahko razdelimo na vzhodni del, kjer so starostno standardizirane stopnje umrljivosti nad 10, in zahodni del s stopnjami umrljivosti pod 10. (Izvleček prekinjen pri 2000 znakih.)
