Computation description:![]() | For tables disaggregated by Indigenous status: Selected International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) chapters for underlying causes of death plus major cause of Kidney diseases:
For disaggregations by all persons: Each International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) chapter for underlying cause of death:
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. |
---|---|
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, 2009, 2010, 2011 (resupplied for updated Estimated Resident Population (ERP)), 2012 — State and territory (total deaths - all causes only). 2007, 2008 (resupplied for updated ERP), 2009, 2010 (updated for revision to ABS cause of death data and updated ERP), 2011 — State and territory, by ICD-10 chapter for underlying cause of death (and total). 2007-2011 — State and territory, by major cause of death by Indigenous status. 2011 — Nationally, by remoteness (total deaths - all causes only). 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 2014 Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Reform Council (CRC) report:
Cause of death data are final (2007, 2008, 2009), revised (2010) and preliminary (2011). ERP for total population is sourced from ERP rebased after the 2011 Census. ERP for Indigenous data is sourced from 2006 Census based ERP. A system error affected the reporting of WA Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander death registrations for 2007, 2008 and 2009 which affected the WA and national death rates reported for the 2011 and 2012 CRC reports. These data were revised for 2013 reporting. 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 and SEIFA Index of Relative Socioeconomic Disadvantage (IRSD) 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 CRC National Indigenous Reform Agreement (NIRA) report. |
