Summary

Title

(C2) Suicide rates (FHSAs)

NDAD reference

CRDA/24/DS/1992/5/30

Scope & content

The following text has been taken from the 'Data Definition and User Guide' for this year (see the Dataset Documentation Catalogue).

Target number

Target

To reduce the overall suicide rate (including undetermined deaths) by at least 15% by the year 2000 (from 11.1 per 100,000 population in 1990 to no more than 9.4 per 100,000).

Indicator title

Suicide rates

Definition

The directly age-standardised mortality rates for the following definitions of suicide :

Rates are calculated for persons of all ages resident in each area.

Period covered

Deaths registered in 1989-91

Areas covered

England and Wales, England, Regional and Family Health Services Authorities

Source

OPCS

Method

A general description of the calculation of directly age-standardised mortality rates presented in this data set is given in Appendix 2. The age groups used in the calculation of this indicator were <1, 1-4) 5-9, ..., 80-84, 85+.

The populations used are OPCS provisional mid-1991 population estimates based on the 1991 census.

Figures presented for each area are the age-standardised rate, the number of observed deaths in 1989-91, and an approximate 95% confidence interval for the rate (see Appendix 2 for the method of calculation). These figures are presented separately for males, females and persons.

Comments

The figures published for England as a whole in The Health Of The Nation White Paper were based on deaths in 1990 and population estimates that were rolled-forward from the 1981 census. Thus they differ slightly from the data presented here.

Causes are based on the underlying cause of death. The figures presented relate to deaths registered in the calendar year) the time lag between the date of occurrence and the date of registration being usually only a day or two.

The rules governing the certification of neonatal deaths changed in 1986, since when the underlying cause of death has not been assigned for these deaths. For this reason neonatal deaths are not included in the calculation of mortality rates by cause for the first year of life. As a result they are excluded from the age-standardised rates presented here.
