Abstract:

Violence against women is an important public health problem in Brazil and in the world. The objective of the present study was to describe the profile of mortality due to aggression against women, and to analyze whether reported victims of violence have higher mortality rates due to aggression than the general female population. This is a descriptive study of mortality due to aggression against women,the linkage of databases. The data used for the linkage were all reports of violence against women registered in the SINAN (Notifiable Diseases Information System) in the period2011 to 2015 and the deaths of womenaggression registered in the SIM (Mortality Information System), in the period2011 to 2016. The risk of death due to aggression in women reported for violence is higher than in the general female population, thus revealing a situation of vulnerability. Black women with lower schooling are the main victims of violence and homicides. The high number of women killed by aggression and repeated violence reveal the fragility of the care and protection networks in providing comprehensive, qualified and timely care to victims.
