Data scope The Australian Burden of Disease Database was established as part of the Australian Burden of Disease Study 2011 to set up the relevant infrastructure to enable efficient and timely ongoing updates by the AIHW as required. Subnational estimates of disease burden are available for state/territory, remoteness area, and socioeconomic group for 2011, 2015 and 2018. Subnational estimates of risk factor attribution are available for socioeconomic group for 2015 and 2018. Indigenous-specific estimates of disease burden and risk factor attribution are available for 2003, 2011 and 2018. Tabulations can be made available by 5-year age group and sex. |
