Section B: Profile Eastern Cape Province

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for almost 65% of deaths. HIV and TB mortality was about 11.6% among females and 9.6% among males, and injuries accounted for around 9% of deaths.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between females and males. Injuries accounted for 24.4% of deaths among females versus 42.9% of deaths among males; communicable diseases and maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 24.5% of deaths among females versus 16.0% among males; and HIV and TB accounted for 21.0% of deaths among females versus 15.3% among males.

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 71.2% of deaths among males compared with only 16.6% of deaths among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 48.0% of deaths among females.

In the 25–64-year age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (43.5% among females and 40.2% among males). Injuries accounted for a smaller proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males (17.5%) than females (5.3%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (82.7% among females and 80.0% among males). HIV and TB deaths were higher among males than females.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

Among children under 5 years, there was a decline in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions and HIV and TB, with a corresponding increase in deaths due to non-communicable diseases, and a slight increase in injury-related deaths. In the 5–14-year age group, there was a slight decrease in HIV and TB mortality, a bigger decrease in non-communicable disease mortality, and a marked increase in injury-related deaths (30.7% to 40.5%). In the 15–24, 25–64 and 65-years-and-older age groups there were no significant changes in the broad cause groups over the period.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Deaths due to lower respiratory infection, diarrhoea, and HIV and AIDS declined over this period but remained the leading causes. Tuberculosis also declined over this period, with prematurity and birth asphyxia increasing, and sepsis/other newborn infections moving into the top 10 causes of death. HIV-related mortality accounted for between 40% and 50% of mortality in this age group.

5–14 years

Drowning, road injuries, TB, and HIV and AIDS remained in the top four causes of death in this age group, with the proportion of road injuries and drowning increasing markedly. Diarrhoea and lower respiratory infections moved down in the ranking. Accidental threats to breathing, fires and epilepsy were also among the top 10 causes of death.

15–24 years

Interpersonal violence, TB, HIV and AIDS and accidental threats to breathing remained the top four causes of death over this period, with TB decreasing and moving down to second place in the ranking. Road injuries, fires, drowning and lower respiratory infections were also among the top 10 causes of death.

25–64 years

Tuberculosis, HIV and AIDS, cerebrovascular disease, lower respiratory infections and interpersonal violence remained the top five causes of death over the whole period. Diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and ischaemic heart disease also appeared in the top 10 causes in both periods.

65 years and older

Cerebrovascular disease, hypertensive heart disease, ischaemic heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and TB remained the leading causes of death in this age group over the whole period. Diabetes mellitus, oesophageal cancer, lower respiratory infections and cardiomyopathy remained in the top 10, with nephritis/nephrosis replacing tracheal/bronchial/lung cancer in the latter period.

Section B: Profile Eastern Cape Province

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for over 70% of deaths. HIV and TB accounted for about 12% of deaths, and injuries for around 5%.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between males and females, with injuries accounting for 36.7% of deaths among females and 51.8% of deaths among males.

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 67.9% of deaths among males compared with only 18.7% of deaths among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 60.3% of deaths among females compared with only 18.6% among males.

In the 25–64-year age group, HIV and TB accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (38.2% among males and 43.1% among females). Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males than females (16.8% versus 4.8%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (84.3% among females and 80.8% among males).

Trends in broad cause groups by age

Among children under 5 years, there was a decline in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions and HIV and TB. In the 5–14-year age group, there was a slight decrease in HIV and TB mortality, and a slight increase in injury-related deaths. In the 15–24-year group, deaths due to HIV and TB declined, and deaths due to non-communicable diseases and injuries increased. There was not much change in the broad cause groups over the period for the 25–64-year and the 65-years-and-older age groups.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Lower respiratory infections, diarrhoea, prematurity, protein-energy malnutrition, birth asphyxia, HIV and AIDS and TB remained the top causes of death, with HIV and AIDS moving down in the ranking slightly. HIV-related mortality accounted for almost 50% of mortality in this age group.

5–14 years

Drowning, road injuries, HIV and AIDS, and TB remained the top four causes of death in this age group. Diabetes mellitus also came up as a leading cause of death in the second period, which is unusual for this age group.

15–24 years

TB, interpersonal violence, HIV and AIDS, drowning and road injuries remained in the top seven causes of death over this period. Lower respiratory infections and fires were also among the top 10 causes.

25–64 years

TB and HIV and AIDS remained the top causes of death over the whole period. The other leading causes included cerebrovascular disease, ischaemic heart disease, lower respiratory infections, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, road injuries, hypertensive heart disease and diabetes mellitus, which replaced lung cancer in the top 10 in the latter period.

65 years and older

Cerebrovascular disease, ischaemic heart disease, hypertensive heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease remained the leading causes of death in this age group over the whole period. Tuberculosis and lower respiratory infections, diabetes, lung cancer and prostate cancer also appeared among the leading causes.

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for almost 70% of deaths. HIV and TB accounted for about 11% of deaths, and injuries for around 8%.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between males and females. Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 33.0% of deaths among females versus 25.2% of deaths among males; HIV and TB accounted for 20.6% mortality among females versus 17.1% among males; non-communicable diseases accounted for 24.1% (females) versus 19.0% (males); and injuries accounted for 22.2% (females) versus 38.6% (males).

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 66.9% of deaths among males and only 14.3% among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 47.1% of deaths among females.

In the 25–64-year age group, HIV and TB accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (42.2% among females and 38.3% among males). Deaths due to non-communicable diseases increased to 35.1% among females and 33.0% among males. Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males (14.5%) than females (4.3%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (78.8% among females and 74.1% among males). Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for around 12% of deaths. This was the only age group where deaths due to HIV and TB were higher among males than females.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

In children under 5 years, deaths due to communicable diseases and maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions decreased from 70.1% to 67.5% between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013; HIV and TB mortality decreased from 11.8% to 9.4%; and non-communicable disease mortality and injury-related deaths increased slightly. In the 5–14-year age group, deaths due to communicable diseases and maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions increased, while HIV and TB mortality declined over this period. In the 15–24-year age group, injury-related deaths increased markedly from 36.1% to 47.7%, while deaths due to HIV and TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions declined. Not much change was observed in the 25–64-year age group, apart from a slight decrease in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions, and a slight increase in deaths due to non-communicable diseases. In the 65-years-and-older age group there was not much change in the broad cause groups over the period.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Diarrhoeal diseases, lower respiratory infections, HIV and AIDS, protein-energy malnutrition and prematurity remained the leading causes of death between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013. Birth asphyxia and drowning moved up in the rankings, and TB moved down slightly. Mortality in this age group was still largely HIV-related.

5–14 years

The top four leading causes of death in this age group shifted from TB, drowning, HIV and AIDS and diarrhoea, to drowning, lower respiratory infections, diarrhoea and HIV and AIDS. Lower respiratory infections increased markedly, while TB decreased markedly.

15–24 years

Interpersonal violence, HIV and AIDS, and TB remained the three leading causes of death in this age group, followed by road injuries, lower respiratory infections, diarrhoea, epilepsy and meningitis.

25–64 years

HIV and AIDS, TB and lower respiratory infection remained the leading causes of death, accounting for almost 50% of deaths in this age group. Cerebrovascular disease, hypertensive heart disease, diarrhoea, diabetes mellitus, interpersonal violence, asthma and epilepsy appeared in the top 10 causes of death.

65 years and older

The top 10 leading causes remained the same over this period except for hypertensive heart disease, which moved above cerebrovascular disease in 2011–13. Tuberculosis, lower respiratory infection, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, oesophageal cancer, ischaemic heart disease and cardiomyopathy were the remaining leading causes.

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for more than 70% of deaths. HIV and TB accounted for about 10% of deaths, and injuries for around 8%.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between males and females. Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 35.5% of deaths among females versus 19.9% of deaths among males, while injuries accounted for 27.6% of deaths among females versus 41.2% of deaths among males.

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 66.8% of deaths among males compared with only 13.1% among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 46.1% of deaths among females compared with only 11.4% among males. Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 26.1% among female deaths and only 9.4% among male deaths.

In the 25–64-year age group, HIV and TB accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (38.8% among females and 36.0% among males). Deaths due to non-communicable diseases increased to 35.0% among females and 32.4% among males. Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males (13.8%) than females (4.5%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (77.9% among females and 71.7% among males). Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for more than 13% of deaths. This was the only age group where deaths due to HIV and TB were higher among males than females.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

In children under 5 years, there was a marked decline in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions and HIV and TB between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013, while the proportion of deaths due to non-communicable diseases and injuries increased. In the 5–14-year age group, injury-related deaths increased, while deaths due to HIV, TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions declined over this period. In the 15–24-year age group, injury-related deaths increased slightly, while HIV, TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions declined. In the 25–64- year age group, a decrease was observed in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions, and a slight increase was observed in deaths due to TB, HIV and non-communicable diseases. In the 65-years-and-older age group there was not much change in the broad cause groups over the period.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Diarrhoeal diseases, lower respiratory infections, prematurity, HIV and AIDS, protein-energy malnutrition, birth asphyxia and TB remained the leading causes of death between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013. Mortality in this age group was still largely HIV-related.

5–14 years

Drowning, lower respiratory infection, TB, HIV and AIDS, road injuries, diarrhoeal disease and meningitis remained the leading causes of death in this age group.

15–24 years

Interpersonal violence, HIV and AIDS, TB and lower respiratory infections remained the leading causes of death in this age group, followed by road injuries, meningitis, diarrhoea and epilepsy.

25 – 64 years

Tuberculosis, HIV and AIDS, lower respiratory infection, cerebrovascular disease and diarrhoea remained the leading causes of death, accounting for over the 50% of deaths in this age group. Ischaemic heart disease, interpersonal violence, diabetes mellitus, asthma and hypertensive heart disease also appeared in the top 10 causes of death.

65 years and older

The top 10 leading causes of death remained the same over this period. Cerebrovascular disease, hypertensive heart disease, lower respiratory infection and TB were the top causes. Asthma, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, ischaemic heart disease and oesophageal cancer were the remaining leading causes.

The district performed very well with regard to some indicators and the performance is ranked among the 10 best in the country in the last reporting period for the following indicators:

✦ Expenditure per patient day equivalent (district hospitals)

✦ Cervical cancer screening coverage

✦ HIV testing coverage including ANC

✦ TB/HIV co-infected client on ART rate

The performance for some indicators, however, is ranked among the 10 worst in the country. These indicators include:

✦ Inpatient bed utilisation rate

✦ Inpatient crude death rate (highest in the country)

✦ Delivery in facility under 18 years rate

Although the district recorded an improvement in the performance of several indicators over the past three years, improvement strategies are urgently needed for the following indicators especially when compared to the district ranking, 2014/15 provincial and the national averages and the 2014/15 and 2015/16 provincial and the national targets. These are:

✦ Child under 5 years diarrhoea case fatality rate

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for more than 70% of deaths. HIV and TB accounted for about 14% of deaths, and injuries for around 8%.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between females and males. Injuries accounted for 24.0% of deaths among females and 39.7% of deaths among males, while non-communicable diseases accounted for 24.3% of deaths among females and 14.0% of deaths among males.

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 57.6% of deaths among males compared with only 13.1% among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 50.2% of deaths among females and only 17.2% among males.

In the 25–64-year age group, HIV and TB accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (43.4% among females and 40.3% among males). Deaths due to non-communicable diseases increased to 32.8% among females and 30.6% among males. Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males (11.5%) than females (3.7%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (78.8% among females and 71.1% among males). Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 12.1% of deaths among females and 14.2% among males.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

In children under 5 years, there was a marked decline in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions, and an increase in injury-related deaths. In the 5–14-year age group, there was a slight increase in deaths due to HIV and TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions, and a decline in injury-related deaths. In the 15–24-year age group, mortality due to HIV and TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions decreased slightly, while injury-related deaths increased. In the 25–64-year age group, a decrease was observed in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions and TB and HIV, while an increase was observed in non-communicable disease mortality. There was not much change in the broad cause groups over the period in the 65-years-and-older age group.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Diarrhoeal diseases, lower respiratory infections, protein-energy malnutrition, HIV and AIDS, and prematurity, remained the leading causes of death between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013. Tuberculosis and other respiratory conditions moved down in the ranking, while birth asphyxia and drowning moved up. Mortality in this age group was still largely HIV-related.

5–14 years

Drowning, HIV and AIDS and diarrhoeal disease remained the leading causes of death in this age group. Tuberculosis moved down in the ranking, while road injuries moved up. Lower respiratory infections, meningitis and epilepsy were among the leading causes of death.

15–24 years

HIV and AIDS, interpersonal violence, and accidental threats to breathing remained the leading causes of death in this age group, followed by road injuries, lower respiratory infection, epilepsy, meningitis and drowning.

25–64 years

HIV and AIDS, TB and lower respiratory infection remained the leading causes of death over this period, accounting for almost 50% of deaths in this age group. Cerebrovascular disease, hypertensive heart disease, diarrhoea, diabetes mellitus, ischaemic heart disease, interpersonal violence and road injuries also appeared in the top 10 causes of death.

65 years and older

Cerebrovascular disease and hypertensive heart disease remained the top two leading causes. Lower respiratory infections, ischaemic heart disease, TB, diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, nephritis/nephrosis, other circulatory diseases and asthma were the remaining leading causes.

Value highlighted in red – performance is ranked among the 10 worst in the country

The district performed very well with regard to some indicators, which ranked among the 10 best in the country in the last reporting period. These indicators were:

✦ Child under 5 years pneumonia case fatality rate

✦ Infant 1st PCR test positive around 6 weeks rate

✦ TB/HIV co-infected client on ART rate

However, the performance of some indicators ranked among the 10 worst in the country. These indicators were:

✦ OPD new client not referred rate for district hospitals

✦ Inpatient crude death rate)

✦ Delivery in facility under 18 years rate (second highest in the country)

✦ Immunisation coverage under 1 year

✦ Measles 2nd dose coverage

✦ PHC professional nurse clinical workload

✦ TB death rate for all TB (third highest in the country)

✦ Percentage of deaths ill-defined

Although the district recorded an improvement in the performance of several indicators over the past three years, improvement strategies are needed urgently for the following indicators, especially when compared with the district ranking, 2014/15 provincial and national averages, and the 2014/15 and 2015/16 provincial and national targets. These indicators are:

✦ PHC supervisor visit rate (fixed clinic/CHC/CDC)

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for about 68% of deaths. HIV and TB accounted for about 12% of deaths, and injuries for around 9%.

In the 5–14-year age group, there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between males and females, with injuries accounting for 22.2% of deaths among females and 31.4% of deaths among males. HIV and TB accounted for 24% of deaths in this age group.

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 61.4% of deaths among males compared with only 14.3% of deaths among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 45.2% of deaths among females compared with 12.6% among males. Non-communicable diseases accounted for around16% of deaths in this age group.

In the 25–64-year age group, HIV and TB accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (44.0% among males and 48.6% among females). Deaths due to non-communicable diseases increased to 28.6% among females and 27.5% among males. Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males (14.6%) than females (4.2%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (72.2% among females and 65.7% among males). Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for around 13% of deaths. HIV and TB deaths were higher among males than females.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

In children under 5 years, there was a marked decline in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions (from 72.4% to 64.1%), and an increase in injury-related deaths. In the 5–14-year age group, there was a slight increase in deaths due to HIV and TB and non-communicable diseases, and a slight decline in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions and injuries. In the 15–24-year age group, deaths due to HIV and TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions decreased slightly, while injury-related deaths increased (from 34.5% to 40.4%). In the 25–64-year age group, a decrease was observed in deaths due to communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions, and an increase was observed in HIV and TB mortality (from 44.9% to 47.4%). In the 65-years-and-older age group there was not much change in the broad cause groups over the period.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Diarrhoeal diseases, lower respiratory infections, protein-energy malnutrition, HIV and AIDS, TB, prematurity, septicaemia and meningitis remained the leading causes of death between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013. Birth asphyxia did not appear among the leading causes. Mortality in this age group was still largely HIV-related.

5–14 years

Tuberculosis, HIV and AIDS, drowning, diarrhoeal disease and road injuries remained the leading causes of death in this age group. Meningitis moved down in the ranking, while drowning moved up. Meningitis, accidental threats to breathing and epilepsy were among the leading causes.

15–24 years

HIV and AIDS, interpersonal violence, TB, accidental threats to breathing and road injuries remained the leading causes of death in this age group, followed by mechanical forces, lower respiratory infection, meningitis, diarrhoea and drowning.

25–64 years

HIV and AIDS, TB, and lower respiratory infection remained the leading causes of death over this period, accounting for almost 50% of deaths in this age group. Cerebrovascular disease, diarrhoea, road injuries, diabetes mellitus, nephritis /nephrosis and interpersonal violence also appeared in the top 10 causes of death.

65 years and older

Cerebrovascular disease, TB, hypertensive heart disease, lower respiratory infections, diabetes mellitus and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease remained the top leading causes. Oesophageal cancer, cardiomyopathy, diarrhoea and asthma were the remaining leading causes.

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 76.8% of deaths among females and 73.5% among males. HIV and TB and non-communicable diseases accounted for about 10% each, and injuries for around 5%.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between females and males. Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 41.0% of deaths among females versus 31.7% among males; HIV and TB accounted for 21.2% of deaths among females versus 15.2% among males; non-communicable diseases accounted for 17.5% (female) versus 24.5% (male); and injuries accounted for 20.3% (female) versus 28.5% (male).

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 55.9% of deaths among males compared with only 11.2% among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 45.4% of deaths among females compared with only 18.0% among males.

In the 25–64-year age group, HIV and TB accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (43.4% among females and 41.6% among males). Deaths due to non-communicable diseases increased to 29.4% among females and 26.9% among males. Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths in this age group, with the percentage being much higher among males (10.5%) than females (3.0%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (72.7% among females and 65.0% among males). Communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for around 17% of deaths. This was the only age group where deaths due to HIV and TB were higher among males (14.7%) than females.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

In children under 5 years, deaths due to communicable diseases and maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions increased from 71.9% to 79.2% between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013 (in contrast to the rest of the province), while the proportion of deaths due to the other broad causes all decreased. In the 5–14-year age group, deaths due to HIV and TB and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions increased, while injury-related deaths and non-communicable disease mortality declined over this period. In the 15–24-year age group, injury-related deaths and HIV and TB mortality increased. In the 25–64-year age group, the percentage of deaths due to HIV and TB increased from 38.8% to 47.8%, while deaths due to communicable diseases and maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions declined from 25.3% to 18.4%. This could have been due to more accurate reporting of HIV on death certificates. Non-communicable disease mortality remained more or less at the same level, while injury-related deaths increased slightly over the period. In the 65-years-and-older age group there was not much change in the broad cause groups over the period.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Diarrhoeal diseases and lower respiratory infections remained the leading causes of death between 2008–2010 and 2011–2013. Despite prematurity and birth asphyxia moving up in the rankings, and protein-energy malnutrition, HIV and AIDS and TB moving down slightly, mortality in this age group was still largely HIV-related.

5–14 years

Diarrhoea, lower respiratory infections and HIV remained the leading causes of death, with TB replacing meningitis as the fourth leading cause. Road injuries, drowning, epilepsy and accidental threats to breathing (probably cases of interpersonal violence) also ranked among the top 10 causes of death.

15–24 years

Tuberculosis, HIV and interpersonal violence remained the three leading causes of death in this age group, followed by road injuries, diarrhoea, lower respiratory infections, meningitis, and drowning.

25–64 years

Tuberculosis, HIV, lower respiratory infection and diarrhoea remained the leading causes of death, accounting for more than 50% of deaths in this age group. Cerebrovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, interpersonal violence and ischaemic heart disease appeared in the top 10 causes of death.

65 years and older

Cerebrovascular disease, TB and lower respiratory infections remained among the leading causes of death, with hypertensive heart disease and diabetes mellitus moving up in the ranking over this period. Diarrhoea, asthma, ischaemic heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease remained in the top 10 causes of death in this age group.

Broad cause groups by age and gender

In the under-5-year age group, communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for around 68% of deaths. Non-communicable diseases accounted for about 16% of deaths, HIV and TB for about 12%, and injuries for around 4%.

In the 5–14-year age group there were bigger differences in the proportions of broad causes between females and males. Injuries accounted for 20.4% of deaths among females and 35.4% of deaths among males, and communicable diseases together with maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions accounted for 22.9% among females versus 13.7% among males.

In the 15–24-year age group, injury accounted for 62.2% of deaths among males compared with only 13.9% among females, while HIV and TB accounted for 55.7% of deaths among females versus 19.3% among males.

In the 25–64-year age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the largest proportion of deaths (41.9% among males and 46.6% among females). Injuries accounted for a small proportion of deaths, with the percentage being much higher among males (14.8%) than females (4.8%).

In the 65-years-and-older age group, non-communicable diseases accounted for the highest proportion of deaths (86.5% among females and 83.3% among males). HIV and TB deaths were higher among males than females.

Trends in broad cause groups by age

There was not much change in broad cause groups among children under 5 years over this period. In the 5–14-year age group there was a slight decrease in HIV and TB mortality, a bigger decrease in injury-related deaths, and a marked increase in non-communicable disease mortality. There was not much change in broad cause groups for the 15–24-year, 25–64 year, and the 65-years-and-older age groups over the period.

Trends in leading causes of death by age

Under 5 years

Deaths due to diarrhoea, lower respiratory infection, HIV and AIDS and TB declined markedly over this period. Deaths due to prematurity increased markedly, along with deaths due to sepsis/other neonatal infections, birth asphyxia and other perinatal conditions. HIV-related mortality declined to less than 30% in this district.

5–14 years

Tuberculosis, HIV and AIDS, drowning, lower respiratory infections and road injuries remained the top five causes of death in this age group over this period, although the proportion of road injuries declined and drowning increased. Meningitis and epilepsy were also among the top 10 causes.

15–24 years

HIV and AIDS, TB, interpersonal violence, mechanical forces and road injuries remained in the top six causes of death over this period, with HIV increasing markedly. Fires, lower respiratory infections and diarrhoea also appeared among the top 10 causes.

25–64 years

Tuberculosis, HIV and AIDS and cerebrovascular disease remained the top three causes of death over the whole period. Lower respiratory infections declined, with diabetes mellitus, ischaemic heart disease, hypertensive heart disease and lung cancer moving up in the ranking. Interpersonal violence also appeared in the top 10 causes in both periods.

65 years and older

Cerebrovascular disease, ischaemic heart disease, hypertensive heart disease and diabetes mellitus remained the leading causes of death in this age group over the whole period. Lower respiratory infections dropped in the ranking in the latter period.

Value in red – improvement strategies are urgently needed

Value highlighted in yellow – performance is ranked among the 10 best in the country

Value highlighted in red – performance is ranked among the 10 worst in the country

The district performed very well with regard to some indicators, which ranked among the 10 best in the country in the last reporting period. These indicators were:

✦ OPD new client not referred rate for district hospitals( second lowest)

✦ Child under 5 years diarrhoea case fatality rate

✦ Delivery in facility under 18 years rate

✦ PHC doctor and professional nurse clinical workloads

✦ TB/HIV co-infected client on ART rate

✦ Percentage of deaths ill-defined

✦ Percentage of years of life lost (YLLs) due to communicable, maternal, perinatal, nutrition causes

However, the performance of some indicators ranked among the 10 worst in the country. These indicators were:

✦ Expenditure per patient day equivalent (district hospitals)

✦ Inpatient early neonatal death rate (highest in the country)

✦ HIV testing coverage (including ANC)

✦ Incidence (diagnosed cases) of TB (all types)

✦ TB defaulter rate (new smear positive) (third highest in the country)

✦ Hypertension prevalence rate (crude)

✦ Percentage of YLLs due to non-communicable diseases

Although the district recorded an improvement in the performance of several indicators over the past three years, improvement strategies are needed urgently for the following indicators, especially when compared with the district ranking, 2014/15 provincial and national averages, and the 2014/15 and 2015/16 provincial and national targets. These indicators are:

✦ PHC supervisor visit rate (fixed clinic/CHC/CDC)

✦ Expenditure per patient day equivalent (district hospitals)

✦ Inpatient bed utilisation rate (district hospitals)
