Age-standardised mortality rate from suicide and injury of undetermined intent per 100,000 population.

Numerator data for each age band are divided by the denominator population data for each age band respectively to give age specific death rates for the area. These age specific rates are multiplied by the standard population for each age group respectively and aggregated across all the age groups to give the age adjusted count of deaths for the area. This age adjusted count of deaths is divided by the total standard population for the whole age range included in the indicator, and multiplied by 100,000 to give the age standardised mortality rate for the area.

Number of deaths from suicide and injury of undetermined intent classified by underlying cause of death recorded as ICD10 codes X60-X84 (age 10+ only), Y10-Y34 (ages 15+ only) registered in the respective calendar years, aggregated into quinary age bands (10-14,15-19, 85-89, 90+). For 2001-2006, ICD10 code Y33.9 is excluded, as this code was used to record open verdicts prior to 2007.Counts of deaths for years up to and including 2013 have been adjusted where needed to take account of the IRIS ICD-10 coding change introduced in 2014.

Where the observed total number of deaths is less than 10, the rates have been suppressed as there are too few deaths to calculate directly standardised rates reliably. The cut-off has been reduced from 25, following research commissioned by PHE and in preparation for publication which shows DSRs and their confidence intervals are robust whenever the count is at least 10.
