Abstract

Objective To explore the information of dead cases in our hospital from 2008 to 2011,find out the main factor of death,and provide scientific evidence for a reasonable allocation of medical resources and the enhancement of hospital management.Methods According to National Death Cause Reporting System data and the standard of international classification of diseases(ICD-10),1361 death cases were statistically analyzed by the gender,age,departments which they were treated and the cause of death.Results The number of male death cases was higher than that of female death cases;the mortality proportion increased with the growth of the age of patients.The age of 809 death cases was over 60 years old(59.44%).The top five diseases caused the death were malignant tumor,respiratory system disease,circulatory system disease,cerebrovascular disease and digestive system disease.Conclusion The scientific management and optimized resource can reduce the mortality of the patients,improve their quality of life.
