Summary 

The Cause of Death Registry in Norway collects death certificates, coded in ICD-10 format. Cause of death data from 1951-2008 are available from Statistics Norway. However, it should be noted that Cause of Death registry deaths data do not coincide with the number of deaths offered in Statistics Norway's population statistics.

Tabulations on infant deaths are broken down by sex and four age groups (number of days).
