Other information

Cause of death is classified using the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10). As this is a classification of morbidity (ill health) as well as mortality, and as the classification is used in all countries of the world rather than just in the UK, there will be no deaths registered against most of the elements in the lowest levels of this classification.
