12.15 Mortality rate

Mortality rate is a measure of the number of deaths (in general, or due to a specific cause) in a
population, scaled to the size of that population, per unit of time. Mortality rate is typically
expressed in units of deaths per 1000 individuals per year; thus, a mortality rate of 9.5 (out of
1000) in a population of 100,000 would mean 950 deaths per year in that entire population, or
0.95% out of the total. It is distinct from morbidity rate, which refers to the number of individuals
in poor health during a given time period (the prevalence rate) or the number of newly appearing
cases of the disease per unit of time (incidence rate). The term "mortality" is also sometimes
inappropriately used to refer to the number of deaths among a set of diagnosed hospital cases
for a disease or injury, rather than for the general population of a country or ethnic group. This
disease mortality statistic is more precisely referred to as "case fatality".
One distinguishes:

1. The crude death rate, the total number of deaths per year per 1000 people. As of July 2009
the crude death rate for the whole world is about 8.37 per 1000 per year according to the
current CIA World Factbook.
