RESUMO O objetivo do estudo foi analisar a mortalidade indígena no Brasil em 2000, 2010 e 2018. Estudo descritivo com dados do Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade. Calculou-se a mortalidade proporcional entre indígenas e restante da população brasileira, segundo idade, sexo, causa e regiões do Brasil. A proporção de óbitos em indígenas menores de 1 ano em 2000, 2010 e 2018 foi de 15,3%, 17,7% e 16,2%; e no restante do Brasil, foi de 7,2%, 3,5% e 2,7% respectivamente. A proporção de óbitos a partir de 50 anos nos indígenas nos mesmos anos foi de 47,0%, 48,1% e 52,0%; e no restante do Brasil, foi de 66,8%, 74,4% e 79,4%. Em 2018, indígenas menores de 1 ano morreram mais de afecções perinatais (39,4%), doenças infecciosas e parasitárias (10,1%) e causas externas (9,8%). Em menores de 1 ano do restante da população brasileira, essas causas corresponderam a 57,8%, 3,8% e 2,8%. Indígenas acima de 50 anos morreram mais por doenças circulatórias (28,6%), respiratórias (15,4%) e neoplasias (14,6%); e no restante da população brasileira, essas causas representaram 31,5%, 13,6% e 19,0%. Evidenciaram-se desigualdades em saúde e piores indicadores nos povos indígenas no Brasil. 2000 201 Mortalidade Calculouse Calculou se brasileira idade sexo 153 15 3 15,3% 177 17 7 17,7 16,2% 162 16 2 72 7,2% 35 5 3,5 27 2,7 respectivamente 470 47 0 47,0% 481 48 48,1 52,0% 520 52 668 66 8 66,8% 744 74 4 74,4 794 79 79,4% 39,4%, 394 39,4% , 39 (39,4%) 10,1% 101 10 (10,1% 9,8%. 98 9,8% . 9 (9,8%) 578 57 57,8% 38 3,8 28 2,8% 28,6%, 286 28,6% 6 (28,6%) 15,4% 154 (15,4% 14,6% 146 14 (14,6%) 315 31 31,5% 136 13 13,6 190 19 19,0% Evidenciaramse Evidenciaram 200 20 15,3 17, 16,2 7,2 3, 2, 47,0 48, 52,0 66,8 74, 79,4 39,4 (39,4% 10,1 (10,1 9,8 (9,8% 57,8 2,8 28,6 (28,6% 15,4 (15,4 14,6 (14,6% 31,5 13, 19,0 15, 16, 7, 47, 52, 66, 79, 39, (39,4 10, (10, 9, (9,8 57, 28, (28,6 (15, 14, (14,6 31, 19, (39, (10 (9, (28, (15 (14, (39 (1 (9 (28 (14 (3 ( (2
ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze indigenous mortality in Brazil in 2000, 2010, and 2018. This is a descriptive study with data from the Mortality Information System (SIM, in Portuguese). Proportional mortality among indigenous people and the remaining Brazilian population was calculated according to age, sex, cause, and regions of Brazil. The proportion of deaths among indigenous people, for individuals younger than one year of age, in 2000, 2010, and 2018 was 15.3%, 17.7%, and 16.2%, respectively. The proportions for the general Brazilian population were 7.2%, 3.5%, and 2.7%, respectively. For indigenous people aged 50 years and over, the proportions in the same years were 47.0%, 48.1%, and 52.0% and in the rest of Brazil, 66.8%, 74.4%, and 79.4%, respectively. In 2018, indigenous children under 1 year of age died more from perinatal disorders (39.4%), infectious and parasitic diseases (10.1%), and external causes (9.8%). In children under 1 year of age, from the non-indigenous Brazilian population, these causes corresponded to 57.8%, 3.8%, and 2.8%, respectively. Indigenous people over 50 years of age died more from circulatory diseases (28.6%), respiratory diseases (15.4%), and neoplasms (14.6%), and in the remaining Brazilian population, these causes represented 31.5%, 13.6%, and 19.0%, respectively. Health inequalities and worse indicators among indigenous peoples in Brazil are evident. 2000 2010 SIM, SIM (SIM Portuguese. Portuguese .
