- Standardised mortality ratio for deaths from coronary heart disease at all ages
Methodology:
Mortality data by sex and five-year age group were extracted from annual files supplied to the public health observatories (PHOs) by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
These were deaths registered in the calendar years the latest 5 years.
Deaths were allocated to the deceased 's lower layer super output area (LSOA) of usual residence using the August 2011 version of the National Statistics Postcode Directory.
Deaths from coronary heart disease included, ICD 10 codes I20-I25.
Population data are experimental mid-year population estimates for LSOAs, by sex and quinary age group, supplied by ONS to PHOs.
Counts from the latest 5 years were aggregated into MSOA geography.
MSOA deaths and population estimates were aggregated to higher geographies using standard geographical lookup tables obtained from ONS Geography.
Expected deaths calculated by applying age-specific death rates for England in the latest 5 years to each area's population.
SMRs calculated by dividing the observed total deaths in the area by the expected deaths and multiplying by 100.
Confidence Limits:
Confidence limits provide an indication of the reliability of a result.
The 95% confidence intervals provide a range within which there is 95% chance of the true result lying.
Confidence intervals were calculated using Byar's Method as described in APHO Technical Briefing 3: Commonly used public health measures and their confidence intervals.
