Mortality Query Measure Selection

Overview

Death/Mortality Data

The mortality data in this IBIS-Q query module have been derived from death certificates in participation with the National Vital Statistics System. Mortality data are maintained and provided by the New Mexico Department of Health, Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics. They include virtually all deaths of New Mexico residents, including deaths that happened outside the state.

Population Data

{{class BlueText NOTE: September 2024. The population estimates that are currently on NM-IBIS and NMTracking web-based data systems are outdated. New population estimates will be coming soon. They have been delayed because of changes to the way the U.S. Census Bureau and the National Center for Health Statistics have been reporting their population data since the 2020 decennial census. Unfortunately, it takes several months for all the changes to trickle down through the federal and state systems. Population estimates from *2010 through 2023* will be updated with the newer, more accurate estimates. Rates calculated using the NM-IBIS and NMTracking web-based queries will be updated back to 2010 to reflect those changes. We apologize for the inconvenience.}}

Getting Started

* Click on the blue bars to see available measures. * Click on a measure under the "Jump to Default Query Result" column to get the default query result for that measure. * Click on a measure under the "Customize Your Query First" column to go to the query bilder page and design your own query for that measure.

Mortality Queries by COUNTY and HEALTH REGION

Underlying Causes of Mortality (Includes all causes of death)

Underlying Causes of Death "General" causes of death have selections for causes by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) ranked leading causes of death, and for alcohol and drug overdose deaths.
Death Counts and Rates	Jump to Default Query Result	Customize Your Query First
Deaths - Count The number of deaths in the selected year(s), geography(ies) or group(s).	select	select
Crude Rates, Standard Query Deaths per 100,000 persons in the population. Table includes the crude death rate, upper and lower 95% confidence interval limits for the rate, number of deaths, and number in the population used to calculate the rate.	select	select
Crude Rates, 3-Year Rolling Averages (Overlapping 3-Year Groups) Rolling averages are used to "smooth" trend lines that would otherwise be unstable. Often, the population size will be too small to yield a smooth trend line. By combining multiple years, the data will be more stable. "Rolling averages" are overlapping, aggregated year groups. They are overlapped so that more data points may be displayed, and also so the line shows changes more gradually.	select	select
Crude Rates, 5-Year Rolling Averages (Overlapping 5-Year Groups) Rolling averages are used to "smooth" trend lines that would otherwise be unstable. Often, the population size will be too small to yield a smooth trend line. By combining multiple years, the data will be more stable. "Rolling averages" are overlapping, aggregated year groups. They are overlapped so that more data points may be displayed, and also so the line shows changes more gradually.	select	select
Age-adjusted Rates, Standard Query Deaths per 100,000 persons in the population, standardized to the age distribution of the U.S. 2000 population. Age-adjusted rates are useful for comparing geographies and population groups with different age distributions. The results table includes the age-adjusted death rate, upper and lower 95% confidence interval limits for the rate, number of deaths, and number in the population.	select	select
