Abstract

The investigation of the structure of the premature mortality of the population living on the moderately urbanized territory of the Western Siberia was carried out to determine the major trends in disease prevention and life-span. In Tomsk oblast the mortality continues to remain on higher levels first of all because of higher mortality of population due to accidents, traumatism and intoxications. The impact on the mortality of such factors as alcoholism, tobacco smoking, traffic accidents, violent acts has been increased. The lower indicator of the population life expectancy in Tomsk oblast is an evidence of adverse demographic situation. As estimated, in Tomsk oblast in 2004 this indicator came to 64.8 years (66.8years in the Russian Federation). The growth of absolute and relative numbers of non-able-bodied population leads to increase of demographic burden on the able-bodied population. Recently, this burden increased comparatively not much, yet the children burden decreased and the elderly population increased as well.
