Monitoring deaths aids in identifying and addressing their causes, allowing health systems to adapt and respond effectively. Therefore, a robust Mortality Surveillance System is the cornerstone of a highly effective public health system. It plays a pivotal role in measuring key indicators such as the crude mortality rate (CMR), life expectancy, total and excess mortality, maternal, neonatal, infant, and child mortality rates; categorized by age, gender, location, and other forms of mortality.
