This research work has the goal of ascertaining the existent relationship between health (occurrences in emergency services due to Cerebrovascular Accident, Dyspnea & Asthma and Thoracic Pain) and the patients’ socioenvironmental
context, through the analysis of multiple variables, in order to contribute towards identification of factors which may explain the distribution and the magnitude of the number of daily admissions at the emergency services and, therefore,
giving useful information towards the definition of measures which allow to anticipate and mitigate the problem, minimizing exposure to the risk of developing or worsening of these diseases.
