Résumé : |
Mortality can be considered a valid indicator of health effects of different exposures, including drug abuse, giving its high level of reliability and validity. This is particularly true for overall mortality, while, when cause-specific mortality is considered, temporal and geographical heterogeneity in methods used to classify causes of death must be taken into account.
Drug-related deaths and mortality among drug addicts is one of the five key epidemiological indicators used by the European Monitoring Centre on Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) to estimate the prevalence and health consequences of drug addiction. |
