Methods: By using the DALYs indicator, burden of disease was identified in the department of Nariño according to the guidelines established by the World Health Organization. Results: The DALYs in the Department of Nariño highlight the emergence of communicable, maternal, perinatal, and nutritional diseases during the first years of life; of accidents and lesions among youth, and non-communicable diseases in older individuals. Also, accidents and lesions are highlighted in men and non-communicable diseases in women. Conclusions: This is the first study on burden of disease for a department in Colombia by using a standardized methodology. This study is part of the knowledge management process in the Departmental Health Plan for Nariño – Colombia 2012-2015 and contributes to the system of indicators of the 2012 ten-year public health plan. This research evidences that communicable diseases generate the biggest part of the burden of disease in the Department of Nariño, that DALYs due to non-communicable diseases are on the rise, and that accidents and lesions, especially due to violence are an important cause of DALYs in this region, which is higher than that of the country. 2014 artículo científico 0120-8322 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28332140002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28332140002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28332140002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28332140002/28332140002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28332140002/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=283 Colombia Médica application/pdf Universidad del Valle Colombia Médica (Colombia) Num.3 Vol.45 |
