Trends in the Completeness and Validity of Sources of Death Data Against the National Death Index From 2010 to 2018
We observed that the sensitivity of mortality data sources compared with the NDI could change substantially between 2010 and 2018. Other validation characteristics were less variable. Combining multiple sources of mortality data may be necessary to achieve adequate performance particularly for multiyear studies.
