| Sumario: | Chronic non-communicable diseases constitute the highest burden of morbidity and mortality in the world and is responsible for 63% of deaths worldwide. In Brazil, they still represent the highest mortality in the country. Thus, the objective of the study was to identify areas of risk and protection for premature mortality from chronic non-communicable diseases according to social vulnerability in the city of Ribeirão Preto from 2010 to 2014. This was an ecological, quantitative study in which, through the method of spatial scanning, the relative risk and 95% confidence interval were calculated according to social vulnerability data. Five areas of statistical significance were identified, with two high-risk areas being predominantly of census sectors classified as low vulnerability, medium vulnerability, and high vulnerability in urban environments, and three protection areas with being predominantly of census sectors classified as extremely low vulnerability. It was possible to identify areas of risk or protection for premature mortality due to CNCDs, which can contribute to the development of effective innovative strategies to reduce the burden of these diseases for SUS. |
