Abstract

Authors present some epidemiological aspects of violent deaths in Iasi County, with certain comparisons with Romania, during the period 1997-2006. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The study included information collected by Institutes of Forensic Medicine at the national level. RESULTS: In Romania, violent deaths registered values between 2.6 and 4.5%, with yearly non-significant statistical differences when reported to causes of death, excepted years 2005 and 2006. Violent deaths situated Iasi County over the national level (8-11 / 2.7% per hundred thousand). Homicides registered 9.3% per hundred thousand, as compared with much more reduced values in other 12 Romanian counties, in the same period of study. CONCLUSIONS: Violent death in Romania and Iasi County highlighted a dependence of difficulties to carry out efficient programmes of prevention and emergency assistance.
