Objective(s): To adopt appropriate policies and strategies for securing, maintaining and promoting health, there must be accurate information and indicators. This study, estimated the years of lost life due to premature deaths, which is one of the indicators of prioritizing community health problems.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, information on the number of three major causes of mortality (death due to cardiovascular disease, cancer and tumors and unintentional events) was obtained from National Registry Office in 2017. YLL was calculated according to the 2010 Global Burden of Disease Act.
Results: According to the National Registry, 10739 deaths occurred in Kermanshah Province. The distribution of the causes of death showed that the most deaths caused by heart disease (45.6%). the deaths of cancers and tumors was 11.1%, accidents were 7.6%, and other causes was 35.6%. The number of years lost due to premature death in men due to cardiovascular patients was 48774 years (49.4 per 1,000), cancer and tumors 17310 years (17.5 per 1,000), and incidents 28941 (29.3 per 1,000), In women, due to cardiovascular disease it was 76703 (38.1 per 1,000), cancer and tumor 12121 (12.6 per 1,000) and incidents 10049 (10.4 per 1,000). The lost years for all deaths in men was (29.29 per 1000) and for women it was (10.42 per 1000).
Conclusion: The findings suggest more appropriate interventions are needed to prevent premature deaths for men and also for different age groups at risk.
