The deceased were compiled taking into account: sex, age, skin color, educational level, place of residence, territorial stratum, disease, associated risk factors and direct causes of death. The arithmetic mean and standard deviation were used. The results are presented in the form of tables and graphs. <br /><strong>Results:</strong> the greatest affectation was in the last decades of life for the female gender, as well as residence in an urban territory, among the first direct causes of death are pulmonary thromboembolism, as well as acute chronic renal failure; hydroelectrolytic imbalance stands out in a considerable number of deaths. <br /><strong>Conclusions:</strong> the last decades of life were the most affected and the female sex, the main causes of death were: pulmonary thromboembolism and acute chronic renal failure.
