APPENDIX 1 DATA USED IN CALCULATING DEATH RATES
DATA INPUT
The following tables contain data used in calculating the various rates referred to in this publication.
Table A2.1 presents Estimated Resident Population as at 30 June 2012. These data have been used to calculate Standardised Death Rates, Age-specific death rates and Years of Potential Life Lost for 2012 data. These data were released in Australian Demographic Statistics, Dec 2012 (cat. no. 3101.0), on 20 June 2013, and contain final population estimates rebased to the 2011 Census, as well as recast estimates back to September 1991.

Table A2.2 presents the number of live births for Australia for selected years, 2003 to 2012. These data have been used in calculating infant death rates - the number of deaths of children under one year of age per 1,000 live births in the same period. These data were released in
Births, Australia, 2012 (cat. no. 3301.0), and have been revised to include previously unprocessed NSW birth registrations for the period 2005 to 2010.

Perinatal Death Rate
For comparison and measuring purposes, perinatal deaths in this publication have also been expressed as rates. These rates are defined as follows:
- for fetal deaths and total perinatal deaths, the rates represent the number of deaths per 1,000 all births, which comprises live births and fetal deaths combined (where gestation is at least 20 weeks or birth weight is at least 400 grams).
- for neonatal deaths, the rates represent the number of deaths per 1,000 live births.
20 weeks' gestation or 400 grams birth weight
The following tables contain births data used in calculating perinatal death rates. Tables A2.3 and A2.4 are used to calculate perinatal death rates based on the 20 weeks' gestation or 400 grams birth weight definition for fetal deaths. In this publication, this definition has been applied to all 2003-2012 reference year data.
A2.3 All births(a), by sex of child(b) - and state or territory of usual residence of mother |
