Estimate the integrity, in terms of completeness, of the mortality records in the vital statistics information system of the Orinoquia and its departments.
A descriptive study was carried out, with a secondary source of information, from the records of non-fetal deaths reported in the vital statistics systems of each department, using methods of distribution of the mortality of Brass, Preston-Coale, Hill and Bennet-Hourichi to estimate the integrity of the records.
Completeness was found in the mortality records of women and men (≥95%) in Meta, and in the men of Orinoquia and Arauca (≥95%), in contrast to the records of the rest of the territorial units, where under-registration is presented.
Both demographic dynamics and migration influenced the results obtained from the integrity of the mortality records, therefore, also in the selection of the most appropriate method to estimate integrity; when the population is neither stable nor closed, methods based on two censuses with specific growth rates and migration adjustment should be applied; if there is no information on migration, the Hill method is recommended.
从完整性方面评估奥里诺科河地区及其各省份生命统计信息系统中死亡记录的完整性。
开展了一项描述性研究，利用二手信息来源，即各省份生命统计系统中报告的非胎儿死亡记录，采用布拉斯、普雷斯顿 - 科尔、希尔以及贝内特 - 乌里希死亡率分布方法来评估记录的完整性。
在梅塔省，女性和男性的死亡记录完整性较高（≥95%），在奥里诺科河地区和阿劳卡省男性的死亡记录完整性也较高（≥95%），而其他地区单位的记录存在登记不足的情况。
人口动态和迁移都对从死亡记录完整性得出的结果产生了影响，因此，在选择评估完整性的最合适方法时也是如此；当人口既不稳定也不封闭时，应采用基于两次普查并结合特定增长率和迁移调整的方法；如果没有迁移信息，建议采用希尔方法。
