Resumo
Objective: To identify the mortality rate in children under 5 years old and describe its evolution in the state of Goiás in regard
to the component of age, sociodemographic variables, and preventability. Methodology: This is an ecological time series study
using generalized linear regression via the Prais-Winsten method for trend analysis. Results: The correlation between mortality
rates and the coverage of the Estratégia de Saúde da Família (Family Health Strategy) was verified by the Pearson correlation
coefficient. The state of Goiás showed a decreasing trend in the mortality rate in children under 5 years old, with an annual
percentage change of -1.6% (95%CI -1.8%– -0.9%) and a negative correlation with Family Health Strategy coverage (r=-0.193;
p=0.023). Conclusion: The rates for preventability and subgroups of preventable causes were decreasing, except for deaths that
can be prevented with adequate care for women during pregnancy. Deaths from preventable causes prevailed, suggesting the need
for improvements in maternal and childcare.
