Originally reported in: Gomes T, Juurlink DN, Moineddin R, Gozdyra P, Dhalla I, Paterson JM, Mamdani MM. Geographical Variation in Opioid Prescribing and Opioid-Related Mortality in Ontario. Healthcare Quarterly. 2011. 14 (1); 22-24. Sections reprinted with permission
Context:
In 2011, we reported rates of opioid prescribing and related mortality in Ontario in Healthcare Quarterly. The map included in the original publication is replicated below with permission from the publisher, along with the County-level prescribing rates and opioid-related mortality rates that underlie the map (Table 1). Additionally, annualized rates of opioid-related mortality between 2004 and 2006 have been generated at the level of the Public Health Unit in Table 2. There are 36 Public Health Units that administer health promotion and disease prevention programs in Ontario.
Methodological Notes:
All rates were averaged over three years (between 2004 and 2006), and therefore represent an average annual rate over this period.
In all analyses, rates are among people aged 15 to 64. Both crude and age/sex-standardized opioid-related mortality rates are presented.
Due to the small number of opioid-related deaths in some areas, their corresponding mortality rate estimates are quite unstable, as evidenced by wide confidence intervals in Tables 1 and 2.
For more details on the methods, please refer to the original publication in Healthcare Quarterly.
Please contact Tara Gomes (tara.gomes@ices.on.ca) with any questions relating to this report.
