The highest mortality rates found were in the North (12.7%) and Southeast (12.3%). There was a predominance of hospitalizations under the private system (53.5%) and on an emergency in Brazil (53.5%). The hospital stay mean was 6.4 days. The fatality rate on an urgent basis was higher than on an elective.
