Data Notice/Alert

{{class RedText The underlying cause of death on 13 infant death records in the 2016 data year was changed from "Other Injury Causes" (ICD-10 code Y33 or Y34) to "Sudden, Unexpected Infant Death" (R99). This change was made to the NM-IBIS mortality dataset on January 10, 2018. }}

Error in Small Area Mortality Query

{{class OrangeText Between 7/13/2016 and 8/23/2016 the small area death queries were providing results based on all available years (2008-2013), REGARDLESS of the years selected in the query, and reported on the results page. You will want to re-run any small area mortality queries you may have run during that time period. The problem did not affect the birth queries.}}
