COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE MAIN SOCIAL HEALTH DETERMINANTS OF LIFE EXPECTANCY AND INFANT MORTALITY IN UKRAINE AND POLAND.

Objective: The aim: To analyze the data of social health determinants - life expectancy of population and infant mortality in neighboring countries: Ukraine and Poland in cut-away of territory habitation.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The statistical materials of the Ukrainian and Polish information sources were used in this work: SI "The center of medical statistics of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine", The state statistics service of Ukraine, The central statistical management of Poland (Główny Urząd Statystyczny). Methods of system approach, bibliosemantic, statistical, analytical were used for analysis.

Results: Results: In both countries, Poland and Ukraine, the general dynamics as to the growth of an average life expectancy (ALE) among men and women was observed during 28 years of surveillance, and in both countries it was revealed that the ALE indices in women were much higher than in men. Within the last five years, there is a considerable tendency of decrease in the infant death rate in Ukraine, while in Poland this index is particularly invariable. This may be due to the fact that the level of infant mortality in Poland is half the level in Ukraine; moreover, this correlation is approximate within the last five years of observation. A significant place in the structure of all the causes of infant mortalityin 2019 is occupied by the ХVІ chapter in accordance with ICD-10 "Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period" - 54.39 % in Ukraine and 53.05 % in Poland, the last - "Diseases of the Urogenital system" (chapter ХІV) - 0 % and 0.7 %, correspondingly.

Conclusion: Conclusions: With a view of an incessant improvement of a high-quality information which is registered when the statistical data are formed, it is necessary to promote a broad intersector cooperation inside the countries and international collaboration between the countries.
