About this Dataset

Avoidable Mortality

This dataset presents data on preventable, treatable and avoidable (preventable + treatable) causes of mortality. Preventable and treatable causes of mortality are defined as follows:

- Preventable mortality : Causes of death that can be mainly avoided through effective public health and primary prevention interventions (i.e. before the onset of diseases/injuries, to reduce incidence).
- Treatable (or amenable) mortality : Causes of death that can be mainly avoided through timely and effective healthcare interventions, including secondary prevention such as screening, and treatment (i.e. after the onset of diseases, to reduce case-fatality).

Both indicators refer to premature mortality (under age 75).

Please refer to the Sources and Methods for detailed country-specific information.
