Study of the growth rate in fetal death through the analysis of Poisson-type quantitative variables

Abstract

The purpose of the following work is to analyze and identify the causes of fetal death in Ecuador, to evaluate the current death rates and estimate a relationship with the possible growth in case of decriminalization of abortion, an alarming growth of this in relation to previous years, if it becomes legally accepted. For this, the study of a sample of 1818 data extracted from a medical database was carried out, which included statistical and descriptive probabilistic analysis in which a contingency table was applied for the operationalization of our variables, position statistics were used, made Poisson distribution, all this based on a programming language in R. as with the free software Rstudio being its programming language R.
