Population Qualitative Data

Population age groups

  • Paediatric Population (< 18 years)
  • Adult and elderly population (≥18 years)

Estimated percentage of the population covered by the data source in the catchment area

Close to 100% of all deaths in Sweden and of people living in Sweden but died abroad.

Description of the population covered by the data source in the catchment area whose data are not collected (e.g., people who are registered only for private care)

People who, at the time of the death, were registered in Sweden, regardless of whether the death occurred within or outside the country. Thus, stillborns, persons who died during a temporary stay in Sweden or asylum seekers who have not yet obtained a residence permit are not included. Emigrated Swedes who are no longer registered in Sweden are also not included.
