Abstract:
تتضح اهمية دراسة الوفيات من كونها عنصرا مهما من عناصر النمو السكاني، فضلا عن كونها عاملا مؤثرا في تركيب السكان. وتتجلى اهمية هذه الدراسة من انها تبين حقائق عن المتوفين من حيث حجم الوفيات ومعدلاتها وخصائص المتوفين واسباب الوفاة، فضلا عن التوزيع الزماني وال | The importance of studying deaths is indicated as one of the important factors of population growth. Moreover, it is an influential factor in the structure of population. The importance of this study is notable as it identifies the truths of deaths with regard to the size of deaths, rates, characteristics, reasons of death, timeframe, and place within the study site. This research aims at studying the spatial variation of recorded deaths within the administrative boarders of the Province of Wasit. The data were collected from the deaths records at the Health Office and its centers in the Province of Wasit , the population statistics for the years of 1987 - 1997, and the population estimations for the year of 2012. This study consists of four chapters. The first chapter consists of two parts, where the first part discusses the population growth and the rate of population growth, as it changes from year to year, in the Province of Wasit. The second part focuses on studying the structure of population with regard to gender and age. Chapter two discusses the deaths numbers (raw deaths rate, quality deaths rate, age deaths rate, infants’ deaths rate, and mothers’ deaths). It shows that the raw deaths rate decreased in the study site within Iraq. The study also shows that the men deaths rate is higher than the women deaths rate between the years (1987 - 2012). The age deaths of 65 years were higher than the other ages. The ages of (10 - 14) years were the lower. It also shows that the infants’ death rate decreased in the districts centers and increased in the suburbs. It also shows that mothers’ deaths decreased. Chapter three illustrates the main reasons of deaths and it consists of two parts. Part one discusses the “deaths because of diseases” where it shows the reasons of death changes from the contiguous and epidemic diseases to the modern diseases such as cancer, blood and circulation system diseases. Part two discusses the “deaths because of accidents” where cars and shooting increased significantly. The accidents differ based on the types and the seasons of the year. Chapter four focuses on several factors such as natural, human, self, and behavioral that have an effect on the increasing rate of deaths in the study site. This study depended on some statistical techniques to find the relation between the natural and human factors and the raw deaths rate. It also studied the suicide phenomenon in the study site and its role in increasing the deaths rate as one of the self and behavioral factors.
