Crude Overdose Mortality Rate (COMR): The OMRs derived from each study were categorized into the following regions: USA, Canada, Puerto Rico, Europe, and Asia.
For each region the Crude Mortality Rate was calculated by using the following formula: Σ [(OMR) x N Total Deaths] / Σ N Total Deaths
The 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for the mean crude mortality rate was calculated using an alpha value of .05. |
