Abstract：Objective To investigate the cause of death of inpatients in a tertiary comprehensive hospital in western Beijing and to provide reference for disease prevention and hospital management. Methods Patients who died in hospital from 2010 to 2019 were searched through the hospital electronic medical record information system, and the main causes of death were classified according to ICD-10 principles of international classification of Diseases. SPSS 26.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results From 2010 to 2019, 269 727 inpatients were hospitalized, among which 7 202 died. The average age of death was (75.02±12.92) years old, and the ratio of men to women was 1.5∶1. The number of deaths varied in different seasons, with winter the most, accounting for 26.7%. The top three causes of death were malignant tumor, respiratory disease and circulatory system disease, accounting for 89.4% of all deaths. Malignant tumors ranked first among the causes of death, and the top 3 diseases were bronchial and lung malignant tumors, colorectal malignant tumors, and gastric malignant tumors. Conclusion More attention should be paid to the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases among the elderly, especially to the physical and mental health of men. Strengthening health promotion at the turn of the season could prevent disease. Malignant tumors and diseases of the respiratory and circulatory systems are still the main causes of death. Hospital administrators should strengthen the discipline construction of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and tumors.
