Resumo: One of the tools used to assess what is observed in terms of the population’s health conditions is healthy life expectancy. The aim of this study was to estimate the healthy life expectancy in older and elderly adults in Bahia and the Greater Northeast Region. This is a cross-sectional study, in which data from the 2019 National Health Survey were used. As a health proxy, the prevalence of self-perception of health status, disaggregated by sex, for the state of Bahia and the Northeast region, and complete tables of mortality for the same year and locations, disaggregated by sex. For the construction of healthy life expectancy indicators, the Sullivan method was used. Estimates of healthy life expectancy showed that, the older you are, the less you live in absolute terms and proportionately in good health, a direct relationship with age. Women tend to live longer and in poorer health, however, the estimates were not statistically significant from a gender perspective. Providing better health and life for elderly individuals should be one of the main objectives of governmental actions in this century, given the accelerated process of population aging and increased longevity, bearing in mind a perspective of action throughout the life course, not limited to the more advanced stages of life.

El objetivo de este estudio fue estimar la esperanza de vida saludable en adultos mayores y ancianos en Bahía y la región del gran Nordeste (Brasil). Se trata de un estudio transversal en el que se utilizaron datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Salud de 2019. Como proxy de salud, se utilizaron la prevalencia de autopercepción del estado de salud, desagregada por sexo, para el estado de Bahía y la región Nordeste, y tablas de mortalidad para el mismo año y localidades, desagregada por sexo. Para la construcción de indicadores de esperanza de vida saludable se aplicó el método de Sullivan. Las estimaciones de esperanza de vida saludable mostraron que cuanto mayor es la edad, menos se vive en términos absolutos y proporcionalmente con buena salud, una relación directa con la edad. Las mujeres tienden a vivir más y con peor salud, sin embargo, las estimaciones no fueron estadísticamente significativas desde una perspectiva de género. Brindar una mejor salud y vida a las personas adultas mayores debe ser uno de los principales objetivos de las acciones gubernamentales en este siglo, dado el acelerado proceso de envejecimiento poblacional y el aumento de la longevidad, teniendo en cuenta una perspectiva de acción a lo largo del curso de la vida, no limitada a las etapas más avanzadas.Uma das ferramentas para avaliar as condições de saúde da população é a expectativa de vida saudável. O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar a expectativa de vida saudável em idosos e adultos mais velhos da Bahia e grande região Nordeste. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, no qual foram empregados dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde de 2019. Como proxy de saúde, utilizaram-se as prevalências de autopercepção do estado de saúde, desagregadas por sexo, para o estado da Bahia e região Nordeste, além de tábuas de mortalidade completas para o mesmo ano e localidades, desagregadas por sexo. Para a construção dos indicadores de expectativa de vida saudável foi utilizado o método de Sullivan. As estimativas de expectativa de vida saudável mostraram que, quanto mais velhos, menos se vive em termos absolutos e proporcionalmente com boa saúde, uma relação direta com a idade. As mulheres tendem a viver mais e com menos saúde, no entanto, as estimativas não foram estatisticamente significativas na perspectiva de gênero. Propiciar melhor saúde e vida para indivíduos idosos deve ser um dos principais objetivos das ações governamentais deste século, haja vista o acelerado processo de envelhecimento da população e o aumento da longevidade, tendo em mente uma perspectiva de ação durante todo o curso de vida, não se limitando às fases mais avançadas da vida.SESAB2022-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://rbsp.sesab.ba.gov.br/index.php/rbsp/article/view/376110.22278/2318-2660.2022.v46.n3.a3761Revista Baiana de Saúde Pública; v. 46 n. 3 (2022); 183-1982318-26600100-023310.22278/2318-2660.2022.v46.N3reponame:Revista Baiana de Saúde Pública (Online)instname:Secretaria da Saúde do Estado da Bahia (Sesab)instacron:IBICTporhttps://rbsp.sesab.ba.gov.br/index.php/rbsp/article/view/3761/3125https://rbsp.sesab.ba.gov.br/index.php/rbsp/article/view/3761/v46n3a12Copyright (c) 2022 Revista Baiana de Saúde Públicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBomfim, Wanderson Costa2023-03-03T18:58:22Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3761Revistahttps://rbsp.sesab.ba.gov.br/index.php/rbspPUBhttps://rbsp.sesab.ba.gov.br/index.php/rbsp/oai||saude.revista@saude.ba.gov.br|| rbsp.saude@saude.ba.gov.br2318-26600100-0233opendoar:2024-03-06T12:58:28.083887Revista Baiana de Saúde Pública (Online) - Secretaria da Saúde do Estado da Bahia (Sesab)false
