Question

Which diagnosis had the highest gross mortality rate? Total patient deaths Deaths Total patient Diagnoses (including newborns

Answer 1

Answer #1

Mortality rate of aortic aneurysm = 47+19/ (846-(47+19))

= 66/780= 0.085

Mortality rate of pneumonia = 100/ 1194 =0.084

Mortality rate of atrial fibrillation = 44/607= 0.072

So aortic aneurysm has the highest gross mortality rate.
