Notes: The information refers to the last year for which information on the deceased's characteristics was available. Number of deaths per country per year are presented in Table DRD-2 part (i). Toxicology is computed as valid percentages, over the cases with known toxicology. The computation basis for toxicology should be obtained by (No. of DRD) x (% known toxicology). (1) United Kingdom: (ONS); based on standard definition of Office for National Statistics (DSD); based on definition developed for the Drug Strategy. See Drug related deaths – methods and definitions. See also 'General notes for interpreting data' on the Explanatory notes and help page. Sources: Reitox national reports 2005, taken from national mortality registries or special registries (forensic or police). Based on ‘National definitions’ as presented in Drug related deaths – methods and definitions. | ||||||
