GUTIERREZ-LESMES, Óscar A.. Environmental determinants that affect population health profile of Meta 2012-2014. Orinoquia [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.2, pp.59-73. ISSN 0121-3709. https://doi.org/10.22579/20112629.419.
Synthetic indicators based on morbidity and mortality were constructed as a method to describe the environmental factors present in the Meta municipalities in the period 2012 to 2014. Through a retrospective cross-section, using the public da- tabases of surveillance in public health and the single registry of affiliates (RUAF) from 2012 to 2014, which after validation were analyzed in phases: construction of simple indicators, thematic indexes and synthetic indicators. Four indicators are obtained that allow measuring the degree of health impairment of each of the municipalities of the Meta and the difference between them, allowing evidence of the existence of differential effects in each municipality related to environmental factors such as: chemical substances, water, air and fauna, the evidence on the existence of an effect caused by these factors is derived from the presence of morbidity and mortality in different health events.
