Apresentação/Introdução
Analysis in micro areas are frequent in many epidemiology studies, but there are no studies analyzing the quality of address of health events.
Objetivos
The aim of this study is to analyse inequalities in the georeferencing of addresses of deaths.
Metodologia
We georeferenced in the census tracts, the addresses of Brazilian mortality system (SIM) from 2004 to 2019 (n=19,248,977) using the Brazilian National Statistical Address Register, a database containing all addresses visited in each census tract in the 2010 Census. Each address was linked to the respective census tract.
Resultados
13,732,411 (71%) addresses were successfully georeferenced, but there were strong geographic inequalities, being 79% for Southeast, 71% for South, 62% for Center-West, 62% for Northeast and 61% for North region.
The georeferencing increased with age, being respectively 64%, 70% and 74% for 0-19, 20-64 and 65+ years-old. The more educated, the higher success of georeferencing, being from 67% for no education to 79% for complete higher education.
Inequalities were found by color/race, being 76% for white, 67% for black/brown and 50% for indigenous and by socioeconomic status (SES), using tertile of HDI, being 76% for the more affluent, 64% for medium and 58% for the more deprived municipalities.
Conclusões/Considerações
There are clear trends in the inequalities of georeferencing addresses showing that the missing addresses are not randomly distributed. Interpretation of results from epidemiological studies in micro areas must take these inequalities into account.
