Participants:
Parts of discharge laboral transitory incapacity P9. INTERVENTION AND MAIN RESULTS: The gross rate of laboral transitory incapacity is 16.8%. Sex: 67.3% male, 32.7% female. The mean days for episode is 37.42 (DE = 60.47). Female average duration is 10 days more than male. For each year the mean duration increased 1.3 days (r = 0.25; p < 0.05). The 50% episodes has a duration less than two weeks. The three main illness groups are the breathing diseases (VIII), locomotor diseases (XIII) and accidents and traumatism (XVII). Many pathologies are associated with sex and age. Many pathologies have a stational distribution: VIII (p < 0.001), digestive diseases (p < 0.001), mental diseases (p < 0.05) and XVII (p < 0.05).
Conclusions:
1) Is interesting the exploration of the information contents in P9 parts. 2) The aged is relationed with during of absenteeism. 3) Many pathologies were associated with the sex and aged of patients. 4) Many pathologies have a stational distribution.
