| Computation description: | Each ICD-10 chapter for underlying cause of death plus major causes of:
Rates are directly age-standardised to the 2001 Australian population. Variability bands are to be calculated for single-year rates using the method below. Presented per 100,000 population. Rate ratio calculated for Indigenous:non-Indigenous. |
|---|---|
| Computation: | 100,000 x (Numerator ÷ Denominator) Variability bands are to be calculated for single-year rates using the following method for estimating 95% confidence intervals: Age-standardised rate: Where wi = the proportion of the standard population in age group i di = the number of deaths in age group i ni = the number of people in the population in age group i |

| Disaggregation: | 2007, 2008 and 2009 (updated for age standardisation and variability bands), and 2010—State and territory (total deaths) 2007 and 2008 (updated for revision to ABS cause of death data, age standardisation and variability bands), and 2009—State and territory, by ICD-10 chapter for underlying cause of death (and total) 2003–2007 and 2004–2008 (updated for revision to ABS cause of death data) and 2005–2009—State and territory, by major cause of death (and total) by, Indigenous status Some disaggregation may result in numbers too small for publication. Disaggregation by Indigenous status will be based on data only from jurisdictions for which the quality of Indigenous identification is considered acceptable—NSW, Qld, SA, WA and NT. |

| Comments: | Most recent data available for 2012 CRC report: 2010 Aggregated data: 2005–2009. Cause of death data are final (2007), revised (2008) and preliminary (2009). Indigenous and non-Indigenous analysis excludes records where Indigenous status was 'not stated'. Due to small number of Indigenous deaths reported each year, 5 year combined data will be reported for the current reporting period. Data by remoteness may be available, pending assessment of data quality. Further details (including data for 2002–06) are available from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Performance Framework (Indicator 1.22 and 1.23). http://www.aihw.gov.au/publications/ihw/aatsihpf08r-da/atsihpf08r-c01-22.pdf http://www.aihw.gov.au/publications/ihw/aatsihpf08r-da/atsihpf08r-c01-23.pdf For further detailed analysis by Indigenous status, see the National Indigenous Reform Agreement (NIRA) report. |
