age specific death rate

How is ASDR Calculated?

The calculation of ASDR involves several steps:
Data Collection: Gather data on the number of deaths and the population size for each age group.
Age Group Segmentation: Divide the population into distinct age groups, such as 0-4 years, 5-9 years, etc.
Rate Calculation: Apply the ASDR formula to each age group to obtain the death rates.
For example, if there are 50 deaths in the 0-4 years age group and the population of that age group is 10,000, the ASDR would be:
ASDR = (50 / 10,000) x 1,000 = 5 deaths per 1,000 population
