Premature Death

Measurement Period: 2019-2021
This indicator shows the Years of Potential Life Lost before age 75 per 100,000 population.

Why is this important?

Years of Potential Life Lost (YPLL) is an estimate of premature mortality. It represents the number of years a person would have lived if he or she had not died before the predetermined age of 75 years. On a population level, the measurement gives more weight to deaths occurring among younger people and therefore YPLL is an alternative measure to death rates. When applied to different specific causes of death, YPLL can measure the relative impact of various diseases on the population and can be used to emphasize specific causes of death affecting younger age groups. YPLL is frequently used to quantify social and economic losses due to premature death.
