Razão de mortalidade proporcional de Swaroop e Uemura: necessidade de revisão periódica de sua definição

Abstract: RESUMO:Utilizando dados referentes a 34 países, em quatro épocas, 1950,1960, 1970 e 1980, foi verificado que a percentagem de óbitos com 50 anos e mais, que constitui a Razão de Mortalidade Proporcional, indicador de nível de saúde de populações proposta por Swarrop e Uemura, não proporcionou o maior poder de discriminação entre países mais e menos desenvolvidos, em qualquer das épocas; nas duas últimas, foi a percentagem de óbitos com 75 anos e mais que correspondeu esse maior poder.

“…In the years that followed 1970 -a period more intensely analyzed in recent demographic studies -the population movement reported here appeared to stabilize, with a progressive improvement of the general indicators of social development.
