Methodological note
The indicator measures the standardised death rate of chronic diseases. Chronic diseases included in the indicator are malignant neoplasms, diabetes mellitus, ischaemic heart diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, chronic lower respiratory diseases and chronic liver diseases (tenth International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) codes C00 to C97, E10 to E14, I20 to I25, I60 to I69 and J40 to J47). Death due to chronic diseases is considered premature if it occurs before the age of 65.
Data on causes of death (CD) refer to the underlying cause which - according to the World Health Organisation (WHO) - is "the disease or injury which initiated the train of morbid events leading directly to death, or the circumstances of the accident or violence which produced the fatal injury". CD data are derived from death certificates. The medical certification of death is an obligation in all Member States.
The data are presented as standardised death rates, i.e. they follow a standard age distribution to measure death rates, irrespective of the different age structures of the populations. This approach allows comparability over time and across countries. The standardised death rates used here are calculated based on European standard population of 2013.
Eurostat removed the indicator in 2020 and Catalonia removed it in 2022.
