Final annual mortality data from the National Vital Statistics System for a given year are typically released 11 months after the end of the calendar year. Provisional data, which are based on preliminary death certificate data, provide an early estimate of deaths before the release of final data. In 2023, a provisional total of 3,090,582 deaths occurred in the United States. The age-adjusted death rate per 100,000 population was 884.2 among males and 632.8 among females; the overall rate, 750.4, was 6.1% lower than in 2022 (798.8). The overall rate decreased for all age groups. Overall age-adjusted death rates in 2023 were lowest among non-Hispanic multiracial (352.1) and highest among non-Hispanic Black or African American persons (924.3). The leading causes of death were heart disease, cancer, and unintentional injury. The number of deaths from COVID-19 (76,446) was 68.9% lower than in 2022 (245,614). Provisional death estimates provide an early signal about shifts in mortality trends. Timely and actionable data can guide public health policies and interventions for populations experiencing higher mortality.

美国死亡率 - 临时数据，2023 年。


国家人口动态统计系统的特定年份的最终年度死亡率数据通常在日历年结束后 11 个月发布。临时数据基于初步死亡证明数据，可在最终数据发布之前提供死亡人数的早期估计。 2023年，美国死亡人数暂定为3,090,582人。每10万人年龄调整死亡率，男性为884.2，女性为632.8；总体比率为 750.4，比 2022 年（798.8）下降 6.1%。所有年龄段的总体比率均有所下降。 2023 年，非西班牙裔多种族总体年龄调整死亡率最低 (352.1)，非西班牙裔黑人或非裔美国人最高 (924.3)。死亡的主要原因是心脏病、癌症和意外伤害。 COVID-19 死亡人数 (76,446 人) 比 2022 年 (245,614 人) 减少了 68.9%。临时死亡估计提供了有关死亡率趋势变化的早期信号。及时且可操作的数据可以指导针对死亡率较高人群的公共卫生政策和干预措施。
