Mortality Profile: December 2021

Details

The Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) has updated the Mortality Profile.

The profile brings together a selection of mortality indicators, including from other OHID data tools such as the Public Health Outcomes Framework, making it easier to assess outcomes across a range of causes of death.

Owing to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mortality, the following indicators have been updated with data for single years from 2001 to 2020. Back series has also been updated from 2001 to 2003 to 2017 to 2019, to take into account changes in underlying cause coding:

  • under 75 mortality rate from heart disease
  • under 75 mortality rate from stroke
  • under 75 mortality rate from breast cancer (females only)
  • under 75 mortality rate from colorectal cancer

The following indicator has been updated with data for single years from 2001 to 2020. Data has also been updated for the time period 2018 to 2020:

  • under 75 mortality rate for all causes

The following indicator has been updated with data for 2018 to 2020, with the back series from 2001 to 2003 also being updated, to take into account changes in underlying cause coding:

  • under 75 mortality rate from injuries

With this release, a new indicator has also been provided ‘Mortality rate from all causes, all ages’. Data has been provided in single year format from 2001 to 2020, as well as 3 year aggregated data from 2001 to 2003 up to 2018 to 2020.
