Resumo: dc.description.abstractThe study focuses on the clinical and epidemiological profile of deaths among elderly patientstreated in public medium-complexity hospitals in the Baixo Amazonas region, Northern Brazil.Brazil's population aging, driven by declining fertility and infant mortality rates, has increasedthe elderly proportion and the burden of chronic noncommunicable diseases, yet the North lagsin demographic and epidemiological transitions, with high mortality from infectious causes andexternal injuries amid social inequalities. This integrative review will analyze the most affectedage groups and sexes, correlate pre-existing chronic diseases with fatal outcomes, assesshospitalization duration, and identify main causes of death. Studies from the last five years willbe searched in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar using Boolean terms onelderly hospitalizations, morbidity, and mortality in the region. Findings aim to inform healthprofessionals and policymakers for comprehensive geriatric care policies, reducing preventabledeaths and fostering research on aging in vulnerable Amazonian contexts.pt_BR
