Abstract

Aims: Recognizing the causes of MORTALITY is one of the most important issues that take the mind of policymakers and the health systems’ managers. Aging, alone, is the most important predicting parameter of death in populations. Subsequent injuries of war can affect life expectancy and reduce it. The object of this study was determining the causes of death in middle age and elderly in Iranian VETERANS in 2008.Instrument & Methods This descriptive study was done on medical files of more than-40 year old VETERANS who have died in 2008 and their files were analyzed in article No. 15 commission of Martyrs and VETERANS Foundation. Data were entered to SPSS 18 statistical software and were analyzed.Findings: The MORTALITY rate of more than 40-year old VETERANS was 4.67 in 1000 persons. 8 main causes of death were cardiovascular diseases in 483 cases (34.9%), unintentional injuries in 289 cases (20.9%), cancers and tumors in 224 cases (16.2%), respiratory diseases in 46 cases (3.3%), gastrointestinal diseases in 41 cases (3%), infectious diseases in 32 cases (2.3%), pulmonary diseases in 30 cases (2.2%) and urinary tract diseases in 29 cases (2.1%), respectively.Conclusion: MORTALITY rate of VETERANS is lower than general population and deaths from accidents among VETERANS are more common than deaths from cancers and tumors.
