Suicide mortality in India
O6-4.2 HIV mortality and infection in India
Introduction To determine the rates of death and infection from HIV in India in a nationally-representative survey of deaths among 1.1 million homes. Methods Survey of 123 000 deaths at all ages from 2001 to 2003. Main outcome measures HIV mortality and infection. Results HIV accounted for 8.1% (99% CI 5.0% to 11.2%) of all deaths among adults aged 25–34 years. In this age group, about 40% of deaths from HIV were due to AIDS and 26% were due to t…
Verbal autopsy of 80,000 adult deaths in Tamilnadu, South India
A ten day training programme to write verbal autopsy report with adequate feed back sessions and random sampling of 5% of the verbal autopsy reports for re-interview worked very well in Tamilnadu, to arrive at the probable underlying cause of death reliably for deaths in early adult life or middle age (25-69 years) and less reliably for older ages (70+). Thus VA is practicable for deaths in early adult life or middle age and is of more limited va…
Verbal autopsy of 48 000 adult deaths attributable to medical causes in Chennai (formerly Madras), India
VA is practicable for deaths in early adult life or middle age and is of more limited value in old age. A systematic program of VA of a representative sample of deaths could assign broad causes not only to deaths in childhood (as has previously been established) but also to deaths in early adult life and middle age
