Preface

PREFACE�What�s past is prologue...�

Sometimes the best way to determine what direction to take isto look at where we are and back at where we have been. This is astrue in matters of public health as it is in navigation. And in today�scomplex society, careful planning is becoming more important thanever before.

Each year, the Oregon Health Division (OHD) publishes theOregon Vital Statistics Annual Report, an analytical look at thehealth of Oregon as measured by the health of its citizens. By thismeans, policy makers and health care professionals have a sourceof important knowledge that can be used to form bases for action andbenchmarks for assessing progress.

STRUCTURE OF THE REPORTStarting with the 1992 data, the Vital Statistics Annual Report is

issued in two volumes in an effort to make it easier to use.

Volume 1 presents data on births, abortions, and teen pregnancy.

Volume 2 presents data on deaths (all ages), perinatal deathsand adolescent suicide attempts.

The only marriage and divorce data published in the reportare statewide occurrences and rates. Information by county andby month of occurrence is available, as are a variety of year-to-date preliminary data on deaths, births, abortions, and teenpregnancy, at the Center for Health Statistics web page: http://www.ohd.hr.state.or.us/chs/welcome.html. Additional data isavailable in the form of simple cross-tabulations. For informationon availability or to request data, call the Center for HealthStatistics.

Comprehensive information on communicable diseases canbe obtained by contacting the OHD Center for Disease Preventionand Epidemiology.

The more significant demographic and public health issuesare discussed in the narrative sections that open each chapter.These narratives are accompanied by charts, graphs, and sidebartables. Readers can research their own areas of interest by usingthe data in the many tables at the end of each section. You canalso refer to other OHD reports for more detail on the specificissues summarized in this report. Recent publications are listedon the back inside cover of this report.

A COOPERATIVE EFFORTThe presentation of data in this report is the final stage of a

long, ongoing process that begins with the prompt, accuraterecording of vital events. This registration system ensures thatthe information is collected, kept secure, and made available toindividuals and their families when needed for documentation.Tabulation and analysis of the data by the Oregon Center forHealth Statistics provide useful information about the health andsocial changes occurring in Oregon.

ii Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999

Vital Statistics has been called �the eyes and ears of publichealth,� and is, in fact, the only organized system of healthrecords covering the entire population. The collection of data isa highly cooperative effort that depends on the participation of agreat many people throughout the state.

THE PROVIDERS OF SERVICESThose who provide the services associated with vital events are

the first participants in the collection system.

The birth attendant completes both the legal document and theconfidential statistical section of the birth certificate. For deaths, thefuneral director or person who first assumes responsibility for thebody files the death or fetal death certificate. A physician completesthe medical portion of these death certificates, except in cases offound bodies and unnatural deaths, which are certified by themedical examiner. Hospital medical records personnel help toensure that all certificates are complete and accurate.

These service providers then file the completed certificates withthe county registrars in the county where the event occurred.

Abortions and adolescent suicide attempts are treated differently.The providers of induced abortions file the completed statisticalreports (which contain no identifying information) directly with thestate registrar. Adolescent suicide attempts (again without identify-ing information) are reported by the hospitals treating the attempters.

COUNTY OFFICIALSCounty registrars play an important role by further assuring the

completeness and accuracy of birth, death, and fetal death registra-tion. They check the certificates against other sources of informationto make certain no events are missed. County registrars also followup any incomplete items before sending the certificates to the stateregistrar at the Center for Health Statistics.

CENTER FOR HEALTH STATISTICSAt the state level, the staff of the Center for Health Statistics

perform additional checks for completeness and accuracy. A fieldrepresentative makes contact with providers and county registrars.Clerical staff send correspondence seeking additional informationon such matters as causes of death, birthweight, and tobacco use.Microfilmers store certificates so that certified copies can be made.Coders and data entry personnel turn the collected information intocomputerized data, which are then retrieved by programmers,analyzed by researchers, and made available for demographic andpublic health needs.

OTHER STATESThis report does not overlook events relating to Oregon residents

that occurred in another state. The Centers for Health Statistics ineach U.S. state and Canadian province have agreed to forwardcopies of birth, death, and fetal death certificates to the state wherethe person usually resided. A cooperative agreement also exists forreports on induced termination of pregnancy; however, some statescollect no resident information on these reports and, therefore,cannot participate in the exchange.

Natality

Oregon�s crudebirth rate and

fertility rate bothremain below the

national rates.

NATALITYIn 1999, Oregon recorded 45,193 resident births. There

were 35 fewer resident births than in 1998 and the crudebirth rate decreased slightly, from 13.8 to 13.7 per 1,000population. [Table 1-2]. Oregon�s crude birth rate (the num-ber of babies born divided by the total state population)peaked in 1947 at 25.4 per 1,000 population. For the pastthirty years however, Oregon�s rates have held in the mid-teens, ranging from a high of 16.4 in 1980 to a low of 13.6 in1994, 1995 and 1997. Except for the period between 1976 and1981, Oregon�s crude birth rate has remained lower than thenational rate. In 1999, Oregon�s rate was 5.5 percent lowerthan the nation�s (13.7 vs. 14.5). [Figure 1-1].

Oregon�s fertility rate remained at 64.2 per 1,000 womenage 15-44. [See sidebar, Table 2-2]. The fertility rate is basedon the number of births per 1,000 women age 15-44. Thefertility rate is a more precise measurement of changes inbehavioral patterns because it consists only of women whoare of childbearing age while the crude rate is based on theentire population. Age-specific birth rates increased forwomen over age 30 and decreased for women age 15-29. Thelargest percentage increase in birth rates was amongwomen age 40-44 (8.8%). The largest percentage decreasewas among women age 15-19 (3.5%). [Table 2-2, Figure 2-1].The two youngest mothers in 1999 were 13 years old; theoldest was 51. [See the Teen Pregnancy section of this reportfor detailed information on births and pregnancies amongwomen less than twenty years of age.]

LOW BIRTHWEIGHTNational Healthy People 2000 Objective:Reduce low birthweight to an incidence of no more than 5.0percent of live births.Percentage of Oregon low birthweight births, 1999: 5.4

Of the thousands of infants born each year, not all thriveand become healthy adults. Low birthweight is the majorpredictor of infant death, which in turn is a fundamentalmeasure of the health of a population. Infants with lowbirthweight are more likely to need extensive medicaltreatment and to have lifelong disabling conditions. (Formore information, see the Fetal and Infant Mortality sectionpublished in Volume 2 of the Oregon Vital Statistics AnnualReport.). The low birthweight rate is the proportion of infantswho weigh less than 2,500 grams (5.5 pounds) at birth.

In 1999, there were 2,436 low birthweight babies born toOregon mothers. [Table 2-25]. One of the National PublicHealth Service Year 2000 Objectives is to reduce thepercentage of low birthweight infants nationwide to 5.0percent. In 1999, the percentage of low birthweight births in

Oregon remained slightly above the objective at 5.4 percent,or 53.9 per 1,000 live births. This rate is slightly higher thanthe 1998 figure of 53.7, but the rate has fluctuated relativelylittle over the last twenty years. [Table 1-6; Figure 2-2]. Thelowest rate was recorded in 1981 (48.5) and the highest in1975 (56.6). Oregon�s low birthweight rates are typically 25percent lower than the U.S. national rate. In 1999, Oregon�srate was 29 percent lower than the national rate.

RISK FACTORSMajor factors contributing to the risk of having a low

birthweight baby are multiple births, tobacco use and chronichypertension. Other factors include: non-white race ofmother, mother�s age (younger than 18 or 35 and older), lackof prenatal care, low income, single marital status, aprevious fetal or infant death, low maternal education, andshort spacing between births. As an example of risk factors,women over age 35 have the second-highest rate of firsttrimester care (85.2%) and the lowest rate of inadequateprenatal care (4.4%). (Table 2-15). Nevertheless, womenover age 40 continue to have a higher percentage of lowbirthweight babies. [Table 2-26]. In 1999, most women(64.1%) had at least one risk factor for their pregnancy.Statewide over fifteen percent of the women had three ormore risk factors. [Table 2-21; Table 2-22]. The percentageof births with three or more risk factors had a broad rangeamong counties, from 5.6% in Gilliam to 34.7% in Jefferson.The prevalance of specific risk factors by county is reportedin Table 2-19.

There were 2,436low birthweightbabies born to

Oregon mothersin 1999.

PRENATAL CAREOregon Benchmark for the Year 2000:Percentage of infants whose mothers received prenatal carebeginning in the first trimester.

Year 2000 Goal: 90 percent1999: 81 percent

Public health services and private care providers seek tominimize the risk of death and disability, and to reduce costsassociated with low birthweight infants by providing compre-hensive prenatal care. Two ways to measure prenatal careare: 1) �inadequate prenatal care,� defined as no care untilthe third trimester or fewer than five prenatal visits; and 2)�first trimester care,� defined as care beginning during thefirst three months of pregnancy, regardless of the numberof total prenatal visits. First trimester care has been adoptedas an Oregon Benchmark with a goal to ensure that at least90 percent of pregnant women begin prenatal care in the firstthree months. Overall, 81 percent of women who gave birthduring 1999 received early prenatal care. [Table 2-13; Figure2-3]. This is a slight increase over the 1998 rate andcontinues the upward trend in Oregon. [Table 1-6].

In 1999, five percent of women giving birth receivedinadequate prenatal care and nineteen percent received nofirst trimester care. Women who received inadequate prena-tal care were twice as likely to give birth to a low birthweightchild as those who received adequate prenatal care. [Table2-12]. The proportion that received no prenatal care or thirdtrimester care only remained about the same as previousyears (0.7% and 3.0% respectively). [Figure 2-4]. Inadequateor no prenatal care is frequently associated with other riskfactors. Women who received inadequate prenatal care were

Natality 2-5

four times as likely to have three or more risk factorsindicated in their pregnancy than women who receivedadequate prenatal care (64.7% vs. 15.7%). Age, maritalstatus, education and race/ethnicity continue to showimportant differences in accessing prenatal care. [Tables 2-15, 2-14, 2-11, 2-10]. Six of Oregon�s 36 counties had firsttrimester care rates significantly lower than the statewiderate: Coos, Jefferson, Malheur, Marion, Morrow and Umatilla.Washington County was the only county that had a ratesignificantly higher than the statewide rate. [Table 2-13].(See Appendix B: Technical Notes for information on statis-tical significance.)

MATERNAL EDUCATIONMother�s level of education was closely related to pat-

terns for prenatal care. Women with less than a high schooleducation were least likely to obtain first trimester prenatalcare, while those who had college degrees or higher weremost likely to have first trimester care. (See sidebar andTable 2-11).

MATERNAL RACE/ETHNICITYBirth rates for racial and ethnic groups are not calculated

in this report because precise population data by racial andethnic group are available only for census years. Instead thisreport focuses on the race and ethnicity of women who gavebirth as a proportion of total births. Since 1989, the numberof births to women of Hispanic ethnicity has more thantripled to 15.4 percent of total births. [Table 2-4]. From 1981to 1988, �Hispanic� was a race category on the birth certifi-

cate. Since 1989, information regarding Hispanic ethnicityis reported separately from race. This change addressed thecomplexity of race and ethnicity and increased the accuracywhen self-reporting. The number of resident births to whitewomen (Hispanic and non-Hispanic) has increased 7.7percent since 1989; After several years of increased num-bers of births, births to African American and AmericanIndian women both decreased slightly in 1999. [Table 2-4;Figure 2-5].

American Indians and White Hispanics were far morelikely to receive inadequate prenatal care than other groups.Chinese women were least likely to receive inadequate care(1.5%) and had the lowest percentages in five of the remain-

Natality 2-7

ing seven risk categories. [Table 2-10; 2-20]. AmericanIndians had the highest proportion of risk factors with morethan ten percent of mothers at risk in six of the eight riskfactor categories.

MARITAL STATUS OF MOTHERTraditionally, unmarried women as a group have had

poorer birth outcomes than married women. They generallyhave a greater proportion of babies with low birthweight andlow Apgar scores than do their married counterparts. (Table2-27, Table 2-14). Their infants are also more likely torequire neonatal intensive care, to have congenital anoma-lies, or to die before age one. Between 1973 and 1993, theratio of births to unmarried mothers tripled in Oregon. Sincethe mid-1990s, the ratio has stabilized. [Table 1-2, Figure 2-6]. While there hasn�t been a matching increase in lowbirthweight rates and other indicators of health, the dispar-ity in birth outcomes between married and unmarriedwomen continues.

In 1999, 30.4 percent of all Oregon births were tounmarried women, an increase of 2.0 percent from theprevious year. [Table 1-2]. Oregon has consistently hadlower non-marital birth rates than the nation; Oregon�s ratein 1999 was 7.9 percent lower. [Figure 2-6]. Among womengiving birth in 1999, the percentage of women who wereunmarried varied widely by ethnic and racial group (seesidebar). African American women had the highest rate ofnon-marital births (63.0%), followed by American Indianwomen (58.8%), and Hispanic women (39.6%). Japanesewomen (8.4%) and Chinese women (5.6%) were least likelyto be unmarried. (Table 2-20). Young mothers were alsolikely to be unmarried since persons younger than age 17cannot be married in Oregon. More than three-fourths of theteens age 15-19 who gave birth in 1999 were unmarried(76.2%). This percentage decreased to 40.7 percent forwomen age 20-24 and to 20.3 percent for women age 25-29.Mothers age 30-39 were least likely to be unmarried (13.3%),while 15.5% of mothers age 40 and older were unmarried.(Table 2-3).

Ten of Oregon�s 36 counties had proportions of non-marital births that were statistically significantly higherthan the state average. (Table 2-7). Among counties withstatistically significant differences, Lincoln had the highestpercentage (46.1%) followed by Jefferson (39.1%) andJosephine (38.9%). Five Oregon counties had percentages ofnon-marital births that were significantly lower than thestate average. The lowest was in Hood River County (14.2%).A county�s non-marital birth proportion should be viewed inpart as a function of its own specific population mix, espe-cially age and race. Variations in population compositionamong counties will likely result in significant differencesin non-marital births.

Women whosmoked had a lowbirthweight rate of

77.5 per 1,000.

REPORTED SUBSTANCE USE DURINGPREGNANCY

TOBACCOOregon Benchmark for the Year 2000:Percentage of infants whose mothers did not use tobacco duringpregnancy(self-reported).

Year 2000 Goal: 85 percent1999: 86 percent

Women who smoke when pregnant have a far higherincidence of low birthweight babies than nonsmokers. In1999, women who smoked had a low birthweight rate of 77.5per 1,000 live births, compared to 49.1 per 1,000 amongwomen who did not smoke. Less than one out of six mothers(14.5%) reported using tobacco during pregnancy, a propor-tion that has declined by 18.5% since 1995 and 4.6% since1998. [Table 2-18]. Unmarried women were over three timesmore likely to smoke than married women (29.1% vs. 8.2%).For unmarried women, the smoking rate was highest amongwomen age 30-34 (34.3%), while for married women thelowest smoking prevalence rates were for women age 30-34and age 40 and older (both 5.3%). [Figure 2-7]. Smokingprevalence as reported on birth certificates also variedamong racial and ethnic groups. In 1999, American Indianwomen (26.2%) and African American women (16.4%) hadthe highest reported proportions for smoking during preg-nancy, while Chinese women reported the lowest (none).[Table 2-20].

ALCOHOL AND ILLICIT DRUGSOregon Benchmark for the Year 2000:Percentage of infants whose mothers did not use alcohol duringpregnancy(self-reported).

Year 2000 Goal: 98 percent1999: 98 percent

Used during pregnancy, alcohol can cause deformity,mental retardation, and other severe developmental prob-lems. Based on birth certificate data, 1.9 percent of Oregonmothers (824 women) drank alcohol during pregnancy in1999. Although this represents a 63 percent decline from1990, when 5.2 percent of mothers reported alcohol use, itis an increase of 18.8 percent since 1998 when 1.6 percentof mothers reported using alcohol. Hawaiian women (6.1%)and American Indian women (6.0%) were most likely to havereported using alcohol during pregnancy. Chinese womenand Filipino women reported no alcohol use during preg-nancy. [Table 2-20].

Oregon also records information on use of illicit drugsduring pregnancy including heroin, cocaine, marijuana andmethamphetamine. In 1999, illicit drugs were mentioned in1 percent of resident births. [Table 2-18]. Although this is asmall percentage, it is a 41 percent increase from 1998(0.7%) and follows a three-year decline.

BIRTH ATTENDANT

HOSPITAL BIRTHSA major shift over the past few years has been the

increasing prevalence of births attended by Certified NurseMidwives (CNM). In 1999 13.7 percent of hospital deliverieswere CNM-attended, only a slight increase from 1998, butmore than twice the proportion in 1988 (5.8%). Most in-hospital births (82.0%) were delivered by MDs, a slightlylower proportion than in 1998. [Table 2-23].

OUT-OF-HOSPITAL BIRTHSIn 1999, 2.1 percent of Oregon births occurred out-of-

hospital. Oregon generally has a higher proportion of out-of-hospital births than the U.S. as a whole. In 1998 (last U.S.data available), Oregon�s proportion of out-of-hospital birthswas double that of the U.S. (2.0% vs. 1.0%). Outcomes havegenerally been positive for out-of-hospital births, which mayreflect the screening process used by out-of-hospital provid-ers. Women who delivered out of hospital were generally nothigh-risk patients. In 1999, only 17 infants born out-of-hospital in Oregon had low birthweights (1.8%). Twelveinfants (1.4%) were reported to have a congenital anomaly,which is slightly higher than the percentage for in-hospitalbirths (1.2%). The type of attendant varied by birth setting.Licensed Direct Entry Midwives (LDEM) were predominantin out-of-hospital births, delivering over one-third (37.6%) ofthose births in 1999. LDEMs are lay midwives who havevolunteered for state licensure to provide natality care forOregon women. In addition, Certified Nurse Midwives deliv-ered one in six out-of-hospital births (17.3%), and naturo-pathic physicians delivered one in nine (11.3%). Non-medi-cal attendants, including non-licensed lay midwives, deliv-ered 304 babies, 32.1 percent of the out-of-hospital births.[Table 2-23].

SOURCE OF PAYMENTPrimary source of payment for delivery is noted on Oregon

birth certificates under four categories: 1) private insur-ance, 2) self-pay (no insurance), 3) public insurance (Med-icaid/Oregon Health Plan), and 4) other public insurance.The specific type of private insurance coverage is not de-fined. Multiple payment sources can be indicated. Privateinsurance companies paid for the majority of deliveries inOregon (61.1%), down slightly from 62.2 percent in 1998 (seesidebar). Medicaid programs (e.g. the Oregon Health Plan)paid for slightly less than one-third of Oregon resident births(32.4%). Delivery costs were more likely to be paid for bypublic insurance if the woman was unmarried or under age18. [Table 2-17].

Induced Terminations of Pregnancy

In 1999 Oregon’sabortion rate

remained 20 percentbelow the 1980

record

CURRENT TRENDSDuring 1999, 14,145 induced terminations of pregnancy oc-

curred in Oregon. This total represents a 1.4 percent decreasefrom 1998 and a decrease of 10.1 percent from the record high of15,735 abortions reported in 1980. [Figure 3-1].

This chapter reports occurrence data; that is, all abortionsoccurring in Oregon whether obtained by Oregon residents orresidents of another state. During the 1990s, out-of-state resi-dents generally accounted for 11 to 12 percent of abortions inOregon. In 1999, 1,788 (12.6 %) of patients were out-of-stateresidents. [Table 3-6]. Oregonians who obtained abortions out ofstate are not included in this data. Because rate calculations useOregon population numbers, these calculations substitute out-of-state residents for the unknown number of Oregonians whoobtained an abortion in another state. (See Appendix B, TechnicalNotes section for a more extensive discussion of the completenessof abortion data.)

Changes of behavior are revealed more by shifts in rates, whichaccount for population change, than changes in the number ofevents. The U.S. abortion rate has been declining since 1980 fromapproximately 25 per 1,000 women of childbearing age to 20 per1,000 in 1997. In 1999, the Oregon rate was also 20.0 per 1,000,a 1.5 percent decrease from 1998 and 20.3 percent lower than therecord high of 1980 (25.1 per 1,000). Oregon�s rate has fluctuatedaround 20 per 1,000 since 1988. [Table 3-1].

PREGNANCY OUTCOMESFigure 3-2 shows the ratio of abortions to births occurring in

Oregon, indicating the prevalence of unwanted pregnancies thatoccurred in the state. Both the highest abortion rate (number ofabortions per 1,000 female population) and the highest ratio ofabortions (number of abortions per 1,000 births) occurred in 1980.Between 1980 and 1987, the ratio of abortions to births declined,

Induced Terminations of Pregnancy 3-3

although an increased level of reporting beginning in 1984 (as arequirement of new legislation) obscures this fact. In 1999, therewere 306.8 abortions per 1,000 occurrence births. This representsa 1.0 percent decrease from 1998 and a 13.8 percent decrease from1980, when this ratio was 355.8 per 1,000 births. [Table 3-2].

In 1973, when the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion withthe Roe v. Wade decision, Oregon�s abortion ratio was about one-fifth higher than that of the U.S. [see sidebar, page 3-2]. In the mid-1980s and early 1990s this changed: Oregonians were less likelythan residents of other states to terminate a pregnancy with aninduced abortion (see sidebar). Since 1995, Oregon�s abortion ratiohas fluctuated around the U.S. ratio. The 1999 abortion ratio inOregon was essentially equal to the 1997 U.S. ratio (the mostrecent comparison available) 306.8 to 306.

ABORTION PATIENTSSimilar to births rates, abortion rates differ by age group, race,

ethnicity, marital status and prior pregnancy.

Almost two-thirds of abortion patients have never been mar-ried. [Table 3-3]. More than half have previously given birth. [Table3-5].

AGEThere is wide variation in abortion rates among age groups (see

sidebar): The highest rate in 1999 occurred among women age 20-24 (44.2 per 1,000). The lowest rates were among women 45-49,(0.2 per 1,000) and women under age 15 (0.6 per 1,000). [Figure 3-3, sidebar].

The 1999 abortion rate among teens age 10-17 was 56.7percent lower than the rate in 1980 (when the statewide abortionrate was highest); the rate for 18- to 19-year-olds was 39.9 percentlower. [Figure 3-4] The absence of a corresponding increase in thebirth rates among teens suggests success in avoiding unwantedpregnancy, rather than an increase in decisions to carry un-wanted pregnancies to term. In contrast, among women age 25and older, both abortion rates and birth rates were markedlyhigher in 1999 than in 1980.

RACE AND ETHNICITYThe frequency with which abortion procedures were used to

terminate a pregnancy varied among ethnic and racial groups.African American women and women of Chinese and Japaneseorigin were most likely to have an abortion. In 1999, AfricanAmerican women terminated 48.0 percent of their pregnancies,Chinese women terminated 45.5 percent and Hawaiian womenterminated 44.3 percent. Because Oregon�s demographic compo-sition is predominately white, white women obtained the majorityof abortions by count in 1999 (86.6%) although the group wassecond lowest in percentage of pregnancies terminated. As in pastyears, Hispanic women were least likely to terminate a pregnancy(15.0%). [Figure 3-5].

CONTRACEPTIVE USEIn the majority of abortions that occur in Oregon, the preg-

nancy is not a result of contraceptive failure. In 1999, based upondata obtained from abortion reports, only 37 percent of women hadused some method of contraception to avoid the pregnancy. [Table3-5].

Page 57: Oregon Vital Statistics Annual Report 1999 Volume 1...ii Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999 Vital Statistics has been called fithe eyes and ears of public health,fl

Induced Terminations of Pregnancy 3-5

MEDICAL PROCEDURESEighty-seven percent of abortions with known gestation were

performed prior to the thirteenth week of pregnancy. Just one insixteen (6.3%) of induced terminations were performed aftersixteen weeks gestation. Suction curettage was the procedureused in 98.8 percent of terminations prior to the thirteenth weekwhere method was reported. Dilation and evacuation was theprocedure in 74 percent of terminations occurring after sixteenweeks gestation. Women under the age of 20 were one-third morelikely to obtain an abortion after sixteen weeks gestation than werewomen age 25 and over. [Table 3-4]. The percentage of abortionsoccurring after sixteen weeks gestation declined for every groupexcept age 20-24, which increased slightly, and age 15-19, whichwas unchanged. [Figure 3-6].

Complications at the time of the procedure were reported for160 terminations (one percent of abortion patients): retainedproducts (55 patients) and infection (33 patients) were the mostcommon complications. In Oregon, no woman has died as the resultof a legally induced termination.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTIONAbortion rates varied widely within the state, yet 35 of Oregon's

36 counties had at least one resident who sought an abortion in1999. The providers of such services, however, were geographicallyconcentrated. In 1999, abortions were reported in 10 of Oregon�s36 counties. The degree of concentration was evident in the factthat 97 percent of all abortions were obtained in the five countiesof highest occurrence: Jackson, Lane, Marion, Multnomah andWashington. [Table 3-7]. Although abortions may often be soughtoutside a patient�s community to help insure anonymity, thisdegree of concentration suggests that access to abortion servicesmay be limited for some Oregon women.

Teen Pregnancy

Pregnancy rates forOregonians age 10 to 17

declined 7.6percent from 1998.

CURRENT TRENDSIn 1999, there were 8,272 pregnancies to Oregon females

under age 20. Of these, 55.5 percent had neither completedhigh school nor obtained a general equivalency diploma (GED).Of those who took their pregnancies to term, 76.5 percent wereunmarried at the time of birth. [Table 4-10.] Because ofdifferences in risk and severity of outcomes, this report basesits analysis on two separate age groups to aid in understandingteen pregnancy trends: females under age 18 and females age18 to 19. These two groups are compared to each other and towomen age 20 and older. The number of pregnancies isdetermined by adding the numbers of births and abortionsreported for Oregon residents. Because some neighboringstates (e.g., California) do not exchange abortion reports withOregon, those who obtain an out-of-state abortion are notalways included in this count.

Oregon Females Under 18Efforts at preventing teen pregnancies are focused prima-

rily on females under age 18. During 1999, at least 2,961pregnancies occurred among Oregon females under age 18,215 fewer than in 1998. [Table 4-2]. In 1999, the statewidepregnancy rate among women age 10 to 17 decreased 7.6percent, from 17.2 in 1998 to 15.9 in 1999 (see sidebar). Thiscontinues a four-year decline and indicates that teens areshowing improvement in protecting themselves against becom-ing pregnant. Pregnancy rates for teens age 10 to 17 varied bycounty and eleven counties had rates statistically significantlydifferent than the state rate. [Table 4-5]. The 1999 rate is 6

percent above the Oregon Benchmark goal for the year 2000:15 pregnancies per 1,000 females. [Figure 4-1].

In 1999, the youngest teens to become pregnant were age12. There were 151 pregnancies to females under age 15.

Births to Teens Under 18There were 1,882 births to Oregon teens under age 18 in

1999. Sixty-three percent of pregnancies among teens age 10to 17 resulted in a live birth, compared to 46 percent in 1980.[Table 4-2]. It was the mother�s first child in 92.3 percent ofthese births. [Table 4-9]. The birth rate for teens age 10 to 17was 10.1, a 6 percent decrease from 1998. Eighty-six girls age10 to 14 gave birth during 1999, a one-year decrease of 9.5percent. [Table 4-2].

Abortions to Teens Under 18Abortion rates among teens decreased compared to 1998;

for females age 10 to 17, the abortion rate decreased by 12percent. [Table 4-2; Figure 4-2]. There were 1,079 abortions toOregonians age 10 to 17 reported during 1999, 130 fewerabortions than in 1998. Since the record high abortion raterecorded in 1980, the rate for females age 10 to 17 hasdecreased by more than 50 percent (from 13.4 to 5.8 per 1,000females).

Figures 4-3 and 4-4 present the historical pattern of theresult of pregnancies (birth and abortion). As Figure 4-4indicates, teens are more likely to carry a pregnancy to termthan they were in 1980. Since 1980, the younger the teen, themore likely the pregnancy would be terminated. However, evenamong teens under 15, more than half of the pregnanciesresulted in a live birth in 1999. [Table 4-2; Figure 4-4].

Teen Pregnancy 4-3

Oregon Females 18-19In 1999, the pregnancy rate for Oregonians age 18 to 19 was

114.8 per 1,000 females, a 3.1 percent decrease from 1998.Comparisons with the 1998 figures show decreases in both thebirth rate (4.1%) and the abortion rate (1.4%) among womenage 18 to 19. [Table 4-1].

Of the 5,311 pregnancies to women age 18 to 19, 69.6percent (3,695) resulted in birth. [Figure 4-4]. It was the firstchild for 75.1 percent of the women giving birth.

Birth rates for teens age10 to 17 fell 6 percent.

Oregon Rates vs. U.S. RatesIn Oregon, the birth rate among 15- to 19-year-olds (com-

monly used in historical and national comparisons) decreased3.5 percent in 1999 (46.6 vs. 48.3 per 1,000 females in 1998).[Table 4-1]. The 1999 rate was 15.6 percent lower than the 1991rate of 55.2 per 1,000, which is the highest rate recorded duringthe past quarter century. [Figure 4-5].

Oregon�s 1999 birth rate for 15- to 19-year-old teens was 6percent below the national rate (46.6 vs. 49.6 per 1,000females) (see sidebar).

Oregon�s lower teen birth rate may be attributed in largepart to its demographic characteristics. Traditionally, AfricanAmerican and Hispanic populations have higher teen birthrates and are underrepresented in the state. Oregon's diver-sity, however, is increasing. Between 1990 and 2000 census,the proportion of hispanic residents doubled from 4 percent to8 percent while the proportion of racial minorities was rela-tively unchanged.1 During this same ten year period, Oregon'steen pregnancy rate fell from 86.0 per 1,000 females in 1990to 68.9 in 1999, a 19.9 percent decrease.[Table 4-10, Table 4-11]. (For further discussion of Oregon�s demographic charac-teristics and teen pregnancy rates, see the Methodologysection of Appendix B).

LEVEL OF INFANT HEALTHLow Birthweight

Whether reflecting premature delivery or small size forgestational age, the low birthweight (LBW) rate (less than2,500 grams or 5.5 pounds) is the best single measure of healthfor newborn infants. Changes in the low birthweight rate of agroup might indicate aggregate changes in the mothers�

personal behavior during pregnancy or other conditions thataffect fetal health such as nutrition or access to prenatal care.

In 1999, the low birthweight rate for teen mothers age 15-19 was 71.0 per 1,000 births [Table 4-4], a 6.3 percent increasefrom 1998. For 15- to 17-year-olds, the rate (72.4 per 1,000)decreased 1.8 percent. The teen rate for low birthweightremained higher than those for mothers age 20 and older (51.5per 1,000). [Table 2-26]. The difference in the low birthweightrates between the two groups is persistent. [Figure 4-6].

Race and EthnicityDemographic factors such as race, ethnicity, and marital

status combine with age to influence the likelihood that ateenager will receive early prenatal care. In 1999, for example,57.8 percent of unmarried Hispanics age 15-17 started prena-tal care during their first trimester, compared to 74.6 percentof married non-Hispanic whites age 18-19. [Table 4-4].

Low birthweight rates to teen mothers by racial/ethnicgrouping are displayed in the sidebar and in Table 4-4. Between1998 and 1999, the rate of low birthweight for Hispanic teensage 15-17 increased by 1.2 percent, but decreased by 20.1percent for those age 18-19. Among non-Hispanic, non-whitegroups, the low birthweight rate for teens age 15-17 increasedby 2.9 percent and increased by 32.5 percent for those age 18-19 (see sidebar).

Prenatal CareTable 4-3 shows the association between inadequate prenatal

care and frequency of low birthweight infants among teens whogave birth in 1999. Among mothers age 15-19, those who receivedinadequate prenatal care were more than twice as likely to have

low birthweight babies as those who had received adequatecare (147.4 vs. 62.5 per 1,000 live births). Figure 4-7 shows lowbirthweight rates per 1,000 live births by adequate and inad-equate prenatal care. For mothers 15-17, the rates were 132.6vs. 64.6; for mothers 18-19, they were 156.5 vs. 61.5.

Early Prenatal CarePrenatal care should begin within the first three months of

pregnancy to allow early detection of complications and toensure the health of both mother and infant. An OregonBenchmark goal is that by the year 2000, ninety percent ofpregnant women, regardless of age, will begin medical careduring the first trimester of pregnancy. Teens are farther fromthis goal than any other age group: in 1999, only 66.5 percentof teens giving birth started prenatal care during the firsttrimester compared to 82.6 percent for women age 20 and older(see sidebar). Only 62.3 percent of those under age 18 receivedprenatal care, a slight increase from 59.5 percent 1998 (2.3).[Table 4-10].

Inadequate Prenatal CareInadequate prenatal care has been defined as care that

begins after the second trimester of pregnancy, or that involvesfewer than five prenatal visits. By this measure, 10.2 percentof 15- to 17- year-old teens and 8.0 percent of 18- to 19- year-old teens received inadequate prenatal care in 1999. Thiscompares with 4.9 percent of women age 20 or older thatreceived inadequate care. [Table 4-10]. The proportion ofwomen under age 20 who received inadequate prenatal careremained essentially unchanged from 1998.

Late Care and No Prenatal CareThe proportion of teens age 15-17 who began prenatal care

during the third trimester decreased 11.7 percent to 52.2 per

1,000 live births in 1999. [Figure 4-8]. Teens under age 18 aremore likely than older women to go through pregnancy withouta single visit to a medical provider; in 1999, the rate of no prenatalcare among teens under age 18 was 16.6 per 1,000 live births,more than twice that of women age 20 and older (6.6 per 1,000live births). [Figure 4-9.]

Low Apgar ScoreThe Apgar score recorded by the birth attendant five

minutes after birth provides another measure of infant health attime of delivery. A score of less than seven is considered low andindicates that an infant is at greater than normal risk formorbidity and mortality. The 1999 low Apgar rate for newborns ofmothers age 10-19 was 22.0 per 1,000 births [Table 4-9], a 2.2percent decrease from 1998 (22.5). The low Apgar rate for infantsborn to women under age 20 was 22.2 percent higher than the ratefor infants born to women 20 years or older (18.0).

Substance Use During PregnancyEstimates of tobacco and alcohol use during pregnancy are

presumed to be minimum counts due to under-reporting on birthcertificates. The legal age to purchase or possess alcohol inOregon is age 21. The legal age to purchase tobacco products isage 18.

TobaccoTeens age 15 to 19 were 89.3 percent more likely than women

age 20 and over to report smoking during pregnancy (24.8% vs.13.1%). [Table 4-9]. Women of all ages who smoked duringpregnancy were more likely to have low birthweight babies thannonsmokers. Mothers age 20 or older show the greatest differencebetween low birthweight rates by tobacco use (77.2 vs. 49.1 per

4-8 Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999

1,000 live births). However, this is in part because the lowbirthweight rate for teen mothers is already much higher thanthat of women age 20 and older (see sidebar). Tobacco use remainsone of the most important preventable causes of low birthweightinfants for teen mothers.

AlcoholReported alcohol use by teens age 15 to 19 during pregnancy

increased from 14.1 per 1,000 live births in 1998 to 14.8 in 1999,an increase of 5.0 percent. Even so, teens age 15 to 19 were 22.5percent less likely to report the use of alcohol during pregnancythan were women age 20 and over (14.8 vs. 19.1per 1,000 births).[Table 4-9]. Alcohol use for women age 20 and over increased 13.7percent, from 16.8 per 1,000 live births in 1998 to 19.1 in 1999.

Source of PaymentCosts associated with births to teen mothers were more than

twice as likely to be paid with public funds as births to olderwomen. In 1999, Medicaid paid for 60.5 percent of births to teens(under age 20) and 27.7 percent of births to women age 20 andolder where payor source was reported. [Table 4-10]. In 1999,there were 83 fewer births to women under age 20 than in 1998,but the number of publicly funded births to women under age 20increased by 64.

Age of FatherDuring 1995-1999, 38.4 percent of birth records for babies born

to teens age 10 to 17 didn�t indicate father�s age, because thefather wasn�t identified on the certificate. [Figure 4-10, Table 4-13]. Almost two-thirds (61.9%) of the birth records where motherwas under age 15 did not list father�s age. Where father�s age wasreported for teen mothers under age 15, 41.5 percent wereyounger than age 18 and 58.5 percent were age 18 or older. Birth

records for mothers age 15 to 17 report father�s age for 62.8percent of the births. Where father�s age was reported, 18.0percent of fathers were under age 18 and 82.0 percent were age18 or older.

For all teens, including the youngest mothers (age less than15 years), the father was more than six years older than themother in 16 to 17 percent of the births for the 1995 �1999period where father�s age was reported. [Figure 4-11]. Paymentfor births to teens age 10 to 17 by Medicaid never fell below 54percent, regardless of father�s age.

Appendix B: Technical Notes — Definitions

BIRTHSApgar Score is a numerical expression of the condition of

a newborn shortly after birth. It is the sum of points accumu-lated upon assessment of the heart rate, respiratory effort,muscle tone, reflex irritability, and color. The highest possiblescore is ten. A low Apgar score (seven or less) measured fiveminutes after birth indicates the infant is at increased risk ofmorbidity and mortality.

Births to Unmarried Mothers Ratio is the number of births tounmarried mothers per 1,000 live births.

Crude Birth Rate is the number of live births per 1,000 totalpopulation.

Live Birth is the complete expulsion or extraction from itsmother of a product of conception, irrespective of the durationof pregnancy, which, after such a separation, breathes or showsany other evidence of life such as beating of the heart, pulsationof the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntarymuscles, whether or not the umbilical cord has been cut or theplacenta is attached; each product of such a birth is consideredlive born.2

Low Birthweight Infant is a live born infant with a birth-weight less than 5 pounds, 8 ounces (2,500 grams) as reportedon the birth certificate.

DEATHSCrude Death Rate is the number of deaths per 1,000 or

100,000 total population.

Fetal Death is death prior to the complete expulsion orextraction from its mother of a product of conception, except wheresuch expulsion results from a therapeutic abortion; the death isindicated by the fact that after such separation, the fetus does notbreathe or show any other evidence of life such as beating of theheart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement ofvoluntary muscles. Effective November 10, 1997, ORS 423.333requires the reporting of "each fetal death of 350 grams or more,or if weight is unknown, of 20 completed weeks gestation or more,calculated from the date last normal menstrual period began to thedate of delivery."

Fetal Death Ratio is the number of fetal deaths per 1,000 livebirths. Ratios differ from rates.

Infant Death is the death of a child prior to its first birthday.

Technical Notes — Methodology

INDUCED TERMINATIONS OF PREGNANCYExcept for incomplete reporting by providers, the data represent

all abortions performed in Oregon during the current data year. Thatis, the data constitute events associated with the place of occur-rence rather than the �residence data� used in estimating births.This is necessary because many abortions obtained out-of-state byOregon residents are not reported to Oregon�s Center for HealthStatistics. It reflects the great variation in abortion reporting proce-dures among states (e.g., some states do not record the patient�sresidence) as well as the fact that a comprehensive data collectionnetwork among all states, similar to that used in reporting births,does not exist in regard to abortions.

In using �occurrence� data rather than �residence� data to estimateabortion rates for Oregon residents, an implicit assumption is madethat the number of Oregon residents who leave the state to obtain anabortion equals the number of out-of-state residents who obtain anabortion in Oregon. In formulating generalizations which involve trendsor long-term behavioral patterns, annual totals are treated as samplevalues generated by ongoing social, economic, or political processesand thus subject to �chance� variability. For most purposes, numbersoffered in this report should be viewed only as careful approximationsand interpreted only within the framework of statistical safeguardsdeveloped to take sampling variability into account.

Some rates in this section are based on relatively few events and formost comparisons may be used only with extreme caution--due to thechance fluctuations associated with small numbers. A small percent-age of abortion reports lack certain data items. This may greatly affectthe estimation of rates. To minimize the potential bias inherent in suchestimates, unknown events in some cases (Table 4-1) are assigned tothe categories of analysis proportional to the distribution of knownevents. In this way, rates calculated for subsets (e.g., �abortions perthousand teen females�) are, on average, less affected by incompletedata.

ESTIMATION OF THE CUMULATIVE PROPORTION OFFEMALES WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED AN ABORTION

This figure is estimated by tracing the abortion experience of aspecific cohort of females over an extended time period. In the tableon the previous page, an approximation of the �cumulative total� offirst-time abortions by one of the cohorts may be obtained bysumming the figures in the boxed area.

To obtain this value, it is necessary to sum the number of first-time abortions for 15- to 19-year-olds from 1975 to 1979 and thoseof 20- to 24-year-olds from 1980 to 1984 with those of 25- to 29-year-olds from 1985 to 1989. This provides an estimate of thenumerator in the following equation:

The denominator may be estimated by averaging the size of thecohort during 1975-1989. Table 10-1 lists the annual estimate ofthe number of females within each cohort. For example, in 1975 thenumber of 15- to 19-year-old females was estimated to be 110,334;in the next year it was 111,184. The average size of this age groupfrom 1975 to 1979 was 112,047. Similarly, the number of 20- to 24-year-old women between 1980 and 1984 was 114,553 on average;the number of 25- to 29-year-olds averaged 111,724 between 1985and 1989. Thus, between 1975 and 1989 the cohort of interest hadan average population size of 112,775.

Substituting into the formula given above:

This figure approximates the proportion of females in the25- to 29-year-old cohort who, by 1989, had ever had an abortion.This method of estimation assumes that factors such as deaths andmigration have not altered the composition of the female popula-tion in Oregon--that is, the women who have left the state displaythe same characteristics as those who have moved into Oregon. Italso assumes that patients with a history of previous abortions donot report the current procedure as a first abortion.

TEEN PREGNANCYPregnancy estimates are based upon the estimated number of

teen births and induced terminations among Oregon teens; they donot include the number of fetal deaths or miscarriages (spontane-ous abortions) which occur. The estimation of teen births is consid-ered to be relatively complete and includes births to resident teenseven when they occur out-of-state. The estimation of teen abortionsis based on all reported abortions to teen age residents of Oregon;however, because states often do not report abortions obtainedwithin their borders to the state of residence as occurs with vitalevents such as birth and death, an unknown number of Oregonteens obtain abortion services out-of-state. As a consequence,estimates of teen abortions and teen pregnancies should be consid-ered minimal in nature.

Page 97: Oregon Vital Statistics Annual Report 1999 Volume 1...ii Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999 Vital Statistics has been called fithe eyes and ears of public health,fl

Appendix B: Methodology B-5

Furthermore, because estimates of abortion for teens are based on�residence data,� figures given in Chapter 4 do not correspond exactlyto those in Chapter 3, which are based on �occurrence data.� (SeeInduced Terminations of Pregnancy methodology section.)

The estimation of rates requires an estimate of the size of theappropriate population. Such estimates are now available for15- to 17-year-olds and 18- to 19-year-olds for each county on anannual basis. Because estimated rates based on a small populationmay vary greatly due to chance factors, rates of teen pregnancy,birth, and abortion were calculated for these age groups only ifthere were 50 or more female residents of the appropriate age groupin the county.

Similarly, rates for 15- to 19-year-olds were calculated whenevera county had 50 or more female residents in this age group.

Great caution must be taken in the use of pregnancy statisticsassociated with females under 15 years of age. This is due to the factthat relatively few events are recorded each year for this group. Also,rates are based on the estimated population cohort of 10-14 year oldfemales�many of whom are physiologically not yet at risk ofpregnancy. Thus, any direct comparison of rates between this groupand another age group�e.g., 15- to 17-year-olds�would be inap-propriate.

DEMOGRAPHICSThe extent to which Oregon�s demographic composition may

affect its national ranking is indicated by comparisons shown inthe sidebar. In 1990, Oregon�s birth rate for all teens (regardless ofrace or ethnic affiliation) was nine percent lower than that of theU.S. and, among all 50 states, it had the 24th lowest teen birth rate.Yet, if comparisons were made in terms of births to non-Hispanicwhite teens only, Oregon would have been 36th and the rate wouldhave been 19 percent higher than that of the U.S. This results fromthe fact that 87 percent of 15- to 19-year-old females in Oregonwere non-Hispanic whites and only seven percent were eitherHispanic or non-Hispanic African Americans. By comparison, 70percent of the U.S. female population of that age were non-Hispanicwhites and 26 percent were Hispanics or non-Hispanic AfricanAmericans.

Computations of Percents and RatesEffective as of the 1997 data year, rate and percent-

age calculations in the annual report publications fromthe Center for Health Statistics will be calculatedexcluding missing and unknown values. This means inthis report that births for which a particular character-istic is unknown were subtracted from the figures fortotal births that were used as denominators beforepercents and rates were calculated. This change hasbeen made to more closely match the methodology usedby the National Center for Health Statistics.1

Example: First trimester care (%)

1997 Oregon resident births = 43,765Received first trimester care = 35,377Did not receive first trimester care = 8,234Month prenatal care began is unknown = 154

Including missing values(35,377 / 43,765 X 100) = 80.8%

Excluding missing values(35,377 / 43,611 X 100) = 81.1%

Data users are diverse, including public health officialsevaluating a program by using death data, demographers pro-jecting school enrollments with birth data, and business peopledeciding to open a formal-wear shop based on marriage data.Many of these users have a thorough knowledge of statistics.But others find the entire subject-matter confusing and intimi-dating. For either group, a misunderstanding of what vitalstatistics mean can lead to wrong conclusions. Therefore, thissection is included to provide an overview of how to use vitalstatistics. It is addressed to the person looking at vital eventsfor the first time, but the experienced user may also find areview helpful.

Occurrence Data:

Residence Data:

STEP 1: FINDING THE CORRECT NUMBERThe first step is to determine how many of a particular vital

event took place during the year. This involves asking twoquestions:

Which event or events are appropriate?

This may not be as simpleas it sounds. For one thing,examining more than onetype of event may be re-quired. For example, some-one concerned with teenagepregnancies will have to con-sider the number of inducedabortions as well as the num-ber of births which occuramong teens. Taken to-gether, they provide a use-ful measure of the numberof pregnancies.1

Deciding which events touse is important since some-times the choice of one event

over another can lead to easily different conclusions. To deter-mine which events are appropriate, read the �Technical Notes:Definitions� section. The narratives also contain useful ex-amples.

Who should be counted?

If you are a hospital planner who is deciding to expand orcontract delivery services, you want to count the number ofbirths which occurred in your area, regardless of where theparents live. If you are projecting school enrollment, you wantto count only how many children will potentially be residing inyour area. Fortunately, vital events are usually reported so thatboth of these data needs can be met.

The event (the death, birth, marriage, etc.) actually tookplace in the geographic region indicated (either Oregon or aparticular county).

The person participating in the event mayhave lived in Podunk, New York.

The person involved in the event lived in thegeographic region mentioned, but the eventitself may have taken place anywhere in theUnited States or Canada. In other words, aresident of Marion County who died in anaccident while on vacation in Michigan hasbeen added to the Marion County residentdeath figure.

Appendix B: Technical Notes — Step-by-Step Instructions B-9

When in doubt about which type of data to use, residentfigures are usually the best choice. Most birth and death dataare published by residence, which means that comparisonswith other states or the United States as a whole will be easier.Exceptions to this rule are listed in the individual sections.

Once the right event has been determined, and the choicebetween occurrence and residence data has been made, thestatistician can find the correct figures in the table(s) in thisbook. If the needed table is not listed, contact the Center forHealth Statistics for more information.

STEP 2: MAKING THE NUMBER MEANINGFULWITH RATES AND RATIOS

In many instances simply knowing the number of events isnot sufficient. For example, we know more people died inMultnomah County than in Wheeler County, because MultnomahCounty has a much larger population. But what is the likelihoodof dying in each county?

In order to answer this question, statisticians calculaterates. This means that the number of events which occurred iscompared to the population for which that event could haveoccurred, and the figure is then standardized to some number(such as 1,000 or 100,000) for convenience.

Here is an example:

CRUDE DEATH RATE = (DEATHS/POPULATION) X 1,000

a number chosen by vitalstatisticians to improve the

ease of comparisons

the number of peoplewho could have died

The more specifically a statistician can define the �popula-tion at risk� (the denominator or bottom part of the formula), themore meaningful the rate is. For example, the crude birth rate,which compares the number of births to the population, is notnearly as informative as the fertility rate, which uses only thenumber of women of childbearing age (15-44) for comparativepurposes. The fertility rate is not distorted by changes in thenumber of men or pre-pubescent or post-menopausal women inthe population. (The turn of the century notion that onlymarried women between the age of 15 and 44 would beconsidered at risk of pregnancy has been abandoned for obviousreasons.)

Page 102: Oregon Vital Statistics Annual Report 1999 Volume 1...ii Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999 Vital Statistics has been called fithe eyes and ears of public health,fl

B-10 Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999

Unfortunately we do not always have the correct denomina-tor for the equation. In these situations a substitute is used.For example, how many people are at risk of getting divorced?The number of married people is only available for census years.As a substitute, the crude divorce rate is calculated using thetotal population regardless of marital status. In other situa-tions, the event is simply compared to another related number.For instance, the abortion ratio compares the number of abor-tions to the number of births. This is easier and more accuratethan trying to determine the true denominator, which is thetotal number of pregnant women.

STEP 3: COMPARING TWO OR MORE NUMBERS

Numbers are more meaningful when they are converted intorates and ratios. But problems can arise when rates or ratios arecompared for different geographical areas, different time peri-ods, or different categories such as men versus women.

Chance VariationStatisticians expect a certain amount of chance variation and

have methods to take this into account. The confidence intervaluses the number of cases and their distributions to determinewhat the rate �really is.� For example, a statistician will say, �Weare 95% sure that the true infant death rate for Oregon in 1986was 9.47 ± 0.97; that is, it lies somewhere between 8.50 and10.44.� If two rates have overlapping confidence intervals, thenthe difference between them may be due to this chance varia-tion. In other words the difference is not statistically signifi-cant.

When calculating rates and ratios, great care must betaken to make certain that the appropriate time periods,geographical boundaries, and populations are used.

When comparing rates and ratios, differences should betested for statistical significance. Formulas are listed inthe next section of this chapter.

Small numbersChance variation is a common problem when the numbers

being used to calculate rates are extremely small. Large swingsoften occur in the rates which do not reflect real changes.Consider Tillamook County�s infant mortality rates for a fiveyear period.

Page 103: Oregon Vital Statistics Annual Report 1999 Volume 1...ii Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999 Vital Statistics has been called fithe eyes and ears of public health,fl

Appendix B: Technical Notes — Step-by-Step Instructions B-11

The overall rate of 10.1 is quite close to the state rate for thesame time period (10.2). Yet for some years the rate is four timesas high as the rate of other years simply because four additionalinfants died. Public health officials would waste a good deal ofenergy reacting to these annual rates.

Many rates based on small numbers are published in thisbook because readers demand them. But anyone preparing tomake important decisions based on these rates should be wary.Consider this rule of thumb: a rate based on 20 cases has a 95%confidence interval about as wide as the rate itself (i.e., theinterval for a rate of 50 is between 25 and 75). Even largedifferences between two rates based on 20 cases or less areprobably not statistically significant.

If 20 is too few, how many cases are sufficient to say that atrue difference exists? Unfortunately we have no easy rules forthis. To be safe, the vital statistician should always try tocombine several years of data or consolidate geographical areas.Confidence intervals should be calculated, and differencesshould be tested for statistical significance.

Changes in measurementAnother problem is that the numbers being compared have

not always been based on the same type of measurement.Definitions, population estimates, certificates, and coding pro-cedures change from time to time as the need arises. This cancreate �artificial� differences and can disguise �real� differ-ences. The cause-of-death item provides an excellent examplein comparability:

During the late 1970s,approximately 80 to 85people died each yeardue to hypertensive disease.

Rate = 3.3 per 100,000population

In 1979, 250 people diedfrom this cause.

Rate = 9.8 per 100,000population

It appears that the incidence of hypertensive disease in-creased. But actually, a new coding scheme resulted in moredeaths being coded as due to hypertensive disease.

Page 104: Oregon Vital Statistics Annual Report 1999 Volume 1...ii Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999 Vital Statistics has been called fithe eyes and ears of public health,fl

B-12 Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999

Taking age, sex, and race into accountMr. G.C. Whipple noted in 1923 that, �We might find that the

death rate of bank presidents was higher than that of news-boys; but this would not be because of different occupations,but because of different ages.� We expect older people to die ata higher rate than younger people We also expect people in theirtwenties to have more babies than the very young or the veryold. Sex and race, as well as age, can affect rates drastically.

When comparing two places or two points in time, it isnecessary to take these influencing characteristics into ac-count. Here is an example:

The crude death rate in-creased between 1950 and1960 from 9.1 to 9.5 deathsper 1,000 population. But anexamination of the death ratesfor each age group indicatesthat all these rates decreased.This apparent contradictionis explained by the fact that in1960 a larger proportion ofthe population was older. Be-cause the risk of death ishigher in older persons, thecrude death rate increased.

1950 1960

Crude Death Rate 9.1 9.5

Age-SpecificDeath Rates

0-4 5.9 5.7

5-14 0.6 0.4

15-24 1.5 1.1

25-44 2.4 2.1

45-64 11.1 10.665+ 58.4 56.8

Before comparing two places or two time periods, alwayscompare the population characteristics first. Ifdiscrepancies are noted in any relevant variables, thenthe rates should be adjusted or standarized in order tomake the comparisons free of differences in the structureof the populations. The formulas for doing this are listedin the following section.

STEP 4: ANALYZING THE DATAThe first three steps have been fairly mechanical:

(1) = Choose the correct events and the correct group todetermine the number of events which took place forthe geographical areas and time periods.

(2) = Calculate the rates.

(3) = Compare these rates to determine if the differencesare statistically significant.

NOW the vital statistician must begin to ask the difficultquestions. If we find that two rates are statistically significantlydifferent, how can we find out why they are different? If thedifferences which we expected did not prove to be significant, isthere another item which perhaps is masking an actual differ-ence? Frequently the statistician has to refine the researchquestion and begin all over again.

Consider the researcher who asks, �Since 1985, has chronicobstructive pulmonary disease posed a greater risk toOregonians?� If the researcher looked at the overall rate, theanswer would be �yes,� but closer examination reveals that thedeath rate for males has declined. It is among women that therate has moved sharply upward, reflecting their increasedsmoking prevalence during recent decades. This gender di-chotomy would need to be addressed in a study of COPDfatalities.

HelpSeveral sources of help are available. Many of the widely

used rates and ratios are presented in the Quick Referencesection, and narratives and figures are included throughout thebook to illustrate changes. And finally, the staff of the Center forHealth Statistics are available for data users who need assis-tance.1 A more complete and accurate estimate of pregnancies based on

outcomes would include: (1) births; (2) fetal deaths (stillbirths);(3) induced abortions; and (4) spontaneous abortions (miscar-riages). However, fetal deaths occur in less than one percent ofall pregnancies and are relatively constant in relation to births(see the Fetal and Infant Mortality chapter in Volume 2) and thenumber of miscarriages which occur is not available in vitalrecords (perhaps 10 percent of all pregnancies). Thus, a measurewhich excludes these outcomes provides an adequate indicator ofthe number of pregnancies.

[Beginning with 1998 data, the following methodology is being used for calculating confidenceintervals and statistical significance. This explanation is paraphrased from "Public Health Data:Our Silent Partner�, a training manual from the Public Health Practice Program Office of the Na-tional Center for Health Statistics (Footnote: US Department of Health & Human Services, PublicHealth Service, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, October 1999. The original materialsare available on-line at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/training/phd-osp.htm).]

CALCULATING CONFIDENCE INTERVALS FOR RATES:

Confidence limits for rates based on less than 100 events

When the number of events in the numerator is less than 100, the confidence interval for a ratecan be estimated using the two formulas which follow and the values in Table B-1.Lower limit = R x LUpper Limit = R x Uwhere:R = the rateL = the value in Table B-1 that corresponds to the number N in the numerator of the rateU = the value in Table B-1 that corresponds to the number N in the numerator of the rate

Example: Confidence limits for rates based on less than 100 events

In Baker County, the teen pregnancy rate for 10- to 17-year-old teens in 1998 was 13.0 perthousand, based on 12 live births in the numerator. Using Table B-1:

Lower limit = 13.0 x 0.51671 = 6.7Upper limit = 13.0 x 1.7468 = 22.7

This means that the chances are 95 out of 100 that the pregnancy rate in Baker County forteens 10-17 lies between 6.7 and 22.7 per 1,000. So if there were 100 counties like BakerCounty, the teen pregnancy rate would be expected to lie between 6.7 and 22.7 per 1,000 in 95of these counties.

Confidence limits for rates based on 100 or more events

In this case, use the following formula for the rate R based on the number of events N:

where:R = the rate (birth rate, mortality rate, teen pregnancy rate, etc.)N = the number of events (births, deaths, teen pregnancy, etc.)

Lower Limit R [1.96 x R / N]= -

Upper Limit =R+ 196 x R N[ . / ]

Appendix B: Technical Notes — Formulas B-19

Example: Confidence limits for rates based on 100 or more events

In Jackson County, the teen pregnancy rate for teens 10-17 was 13.7 in 1998 based on 143pregnancies. Therefore, the confidence interval would be:

= 13.7 - [1.96 x (13.7 / 11.96)]= 13.7 - [1.96 x 1.15]= 13.7 - 2.25= 11.5

= 13.7 + [1.96 x (13.7 / 11.96)]= 13.7 + [1.96 x 1.15]= 13.7 + 2.25= 16.0

So if there were 100 counties like Jackson County with similar populations, the teen pregnancyrate would be expected to lie between 11.5 and 16.0 per 1,000 in 95 of these counties.

DETERMINING STATISTICAL SIGNIFICANCE FOR RATES:

If the difference between two rates would occur due to random variability less than 5 times outof 100, then we say that the difference is statistically significant at the 95% level. Otherwise thedifference is not statistically significant.

Computing statistical significance when at least one of the rates is based on fewer than100 events

To compare two rates, when one or both rates are based on fewer than 100 events, computethe confidence intervals for both rates. If the intervals overlap, the difference is not statisticallysignificant.

Example: comparing rates when one is based on fewer than 100 events

Baker County teen pregnancy rate for age 10-17Lower limit = 6.7Upper limit = 22.7Jackson County teen pregnancy rate for age 10-17Lower limit = 11.5Upper limit = 16.0

The confidence intervals overlap - the interval for Jackson County is entirely within the range ofthe interval for Baker County. Therefore, the difference between the teen pregnancy rate forage 10-17 in Baker County and the rate for Jackson County is not statistically significant.

Lower Limit =137 196 x 137 143 . [ . ( . / )]-

Lower Limit =137+ 196 x 137 143. [ . ( . / )]

B-20 Volume 1 • Oregon Vital Statistics Report 1999

Computing statistical significance when both rates are based on 100 or more events

When both rates are based on 100 or more events, calculate the difference between the tworates by subtracting the lower rate from the higher rate. The difference is considered statisti-cally significant if it exceeds 1.96 times the standard error for the difference between the tworates.

where:R1 = the first rateR2 = the second rateN1 = the first numberN2 = the second number

If the difference is greater than the statistic, the difference would occur by chance less than 5times out of 100. The difference is statistically significant at the 95 percent confidence level.

If the difference is less than the statistic, the difference might occur by chance more than 5times out of 100. The difference is not statistically significant at the 95 percent confidence level.

Example: comparing rates when both are based on 100 or more eventsThe teen pregnancy rate for Oregon teens age 10-17 in 1997 was 18.0 and the comparablerate for 1998 was 17.2. Both rates are based on more than 100 pregnancies (3,197 in 1997and 3,176 in 1998). The difference between the rates is 18.0 - 17.2 = 0.8. The statistic iscalculated as follows:

= 1.96 x .44= 0.86

The difference between the rates (0.8) is less than this statistic (0.9). Therefore, the differenceis not statistically significant. A difference of 0.8 between these two rates might occur bychance more than 5 times out of 100.

CALCULATING RATES ADJUSTED FOR SEX/AGE/RACE:

When comparing rates and ratios, the influences of sex, age, and race differences in thepopulations must be taken into account. Comparing many different age-sex-race specific ratescan be cumbersome. The following techniques are used by vital statisticians to summarizethese rates into one number.

The direct adjusted rate applies each of the specific rates for a particular population (such asa county or an HSA) to a standard population distribution (such as the state).

The standard mortality ratio compares the number of deaths for a particular population (suchas a county or an HSA) to the number of deaths which would be expected if some standard setof rates (such as the state or the U.S. rates) had occurred.

Each of these techniques has its advantages and disadvantages. The easiest to calculate isthe direct adjusted rate. The following example shows how to adjust a county's death rate forsex so that it may be compared to the state rate.

The same logic can be used to adjust for age and/or race.
