Scheme of Presentation:
1. Demography Basics
2. Narrative Based exercises
• Demography – science of dealing with the
study of size, composition and territorial
distribution of population
Demographic Process
Phenomenon in Demography
• Population Size-Growth or decline
• Composition of population
• Distribution of population in space Fertility

Process in Demography
Social
• Fertility Factors
Mortality

Demographi
• Mortality c Process
• Marriage
• Migration
• Social Mobility Migration Marriage
Sources of Demographic data
• Census

• Surveys
• Sample Registration System
DEMOGRAPHIC CYCLE

Stage I - High Stationary


Stage II - Early Expanding
Stage III - Late Expanding
Stage IV - Low Stationary
Stage V - Declining
Demographic Transition

India is in the middle of demographic transition.

1. Both fertility and mortality are declining,


(the pace and magnitude of the decline varies
across the States.)

2. Reasons for high growth rate are.:


a) Large size of population in the reproductive
age group
b) High fertility due to unmet needs for
contraception
c) High intended fertility due to high IMR
Demography Application
• Planning in Public Health Administration
• Understanding health and health care needs
• Describe the level of community health
• Designing , evaluation and effective implementation of
various public health programs
• Mortality rates by age-sex and its geographical distribution
– helpful in locating and identifying diseases
– planning remedial measures
– future planning for prevention
– Planning drugs/medicines/equipment/manpower /other medical
facilities requirements
Age distribution

• Age Sex Pyramid: is a graphical


illustration of the distribution of
a population
– Broad base of younger age group with
tapering top in developing phase.
– With development the bulge in middle will
increase.

Sex Ratio
No of females per 1000 males
Affected by mortality in different genders, sex selective migration,
sex ratio at birth, foeticides
 Overall  Child sex ration (0-6 years)
2001 Census- 933 2001 census - 927.
2011 Census- 940 2011 census - 914

NFHS 5* - F:M = 1020:1000, Sex ratio at Birth F:M=929:1000


Dependency ratio

 Age < 15 yrs and > 65 yrs


dependent population
 Total dependency ratio
Children 0-14 year age +

= Population >65 years of age


Population of 15 to 64 years
= 48.7%
 Young age dependency= 38.9%
 Old age dependency = 9.8%
Density of Population
• Number of persons per sq km
• India has 464/sq km in 2020, decadal trend shows a steady rise
from 1921 when it was 81 persons per sq km
Family Size
• Total no of children a woman has borne at a point of time. Its
rate expressed over the complete reproductive age group is
‘total fertility rate’
• Gives magnitude of completed family size
• India – TFR 2.3 in 2016, declined from 3.6 in 1991
– NFHS 5 : 2.0 (Urban 1.6, Rural 2.1)
• Demographic goal NRR=1 to reach ‘Two-child family norm’
Literacy Rate
• 2011 census – person above 7 years who can read and
write with understanding in any language
• 2011 illiterates were 272.9m with literacy percentage as
74.04 % (M 82% and F 65.5%)
• Max in Kerala 93.9% (2011) and Min in Bihar 63.8%
• *NFHS 5- M: 84.4, F: 71.5 (Overall 77.7%)
Vital Statistics
• Birth rate – total number of births/MYP x
1000
– India – CBR 19.5/1000 (2020) *SRS

Growth Rate
Growth Rate
• Growth rates are affected by population momentum
– contributed by age distribution, marriage and other
factors

• GR is 1.3% in Asia and 0.3% in Europe. Population


with 0.5% GR doubles in 140 years, while with 3% GR
doubles in 25 yrs. GR in India is 1.4%.
Life Expectancy (LE)
• At a given age, LE is the average no of years which a
person of that age group may expect to live according to
mortality pattern prevalent in the country.
• Best indicator of health and development of a country.
• Globally From 1950 to 2008 increased by 22.5 years
• India 2016-20: Male 68.6, Female: 71.4, Av : 70.0

NARRATIVE BASED
EXERCISES
1.
In a town with mid-year population of 150,000 following vital events occurred:

Total live births - 3,200

Total deaths - 1,400

Infant deaths - 270

Maternal deaths – 10
• Calculate the following: -
• Crude birth rate

• Crude death rate

• Infant mortality rate

• Maternal mortality ratio


• What is the difference between Maternal mortality rate and ratio
Key

a) CBR – 3200/150000*1000=21.3/1000 pop/year

b) CDR – 1400/150000*1000= 9.3/1000 pop/year

c) IMR – 270/3200*1000=84.4/1000 LB

d) MMR – 10/3200*100000=311/lac LB/year

e) Maternal mortality ratio includes live births as denominator whereas maternal


mortality rate includes total no of women in reproductive age group as denominator
2.
Data collected from a Primary Health Centre is as below: -

Total live births - 4,500

Total stillbirths (foetus weighing over 1,000 g at birth) - 44

Death under 7 day - 100

Death between 7 day and 28 day - 75

Death between 28 day and 1 year – 165

Calculate the following: -


• (a) Still Birth rate

• (b) Neonatal mortality rate

• (c) Post-neonatal mortality rate

• (d) Perinatal mortality rate

• (e) Name two initiatives related to Infants in India


Key

a) SBR – 44/4500+44*1000 = 9.68 per1000LB

b) Neonatal mortality – 100+75/4500*1000=38.8 per1000LB

c) Post neonatal mortality rate – 165/4500*1000 =36.6 per 1000LB

d) Perinatal mortality – 44+100/4500*1000 = 32 per 1000LB

e) India Newborn Action Plan, HBNC, JSSK


3.
• A primary health center with 30,000 population, gives the following data of 1 year.
Age groups Number of women No. of live births in 1 year

15-24 2000 500

25-34 1800 250

35-44 1400 90

Total 5200 840

Calculate the following:


(a) Crude Birth Rate
(b) Age specific fertility in 15 – 24 years
(c) General Fertility rate

(d) What is the difference between General and Total fertility rate
(e) Comment on suitability of crude birth rate to compare two populations
Key
a) CBR – 840/30000*1000=28/1000 pop

b) 15-24 fertility – 500/2000*1000=250

c) GFR – 840/5200*1000=161.5per1000women

d) GFR is restricted to female population of childbearing age however, all women are not
exposed to pregnancy whereas TFR gives average number of children a women would have, if she
passes the same fertility pattern. It gives a picture of complete family size.

e) CBR is an unsatisfactory measure to compare two populations as all population is not


taking part in child bearing
4.
Mid-year population of a city in 2023 was 1,020,000. The following events occurred during 2023.

Total live births – 30,000

Total deaths – 12,000

Maternal deaths – 120

Infant deaths – 1600

Still births – 280

Death within 1 week of birth – 500

Calculate the following: -


• (a) Crude Birth rate
• (b) Crude Death rate
• (c) Early neonatal mortality rate
• (d) Maternal Mortality ratio
• (e) Define perinatal mortality rate and what is the foetal weight and crown-heel
length criteria in perinatal mortality
Key

a) CBR – 30000/102000*1000=29.4/1000 MYP

b) CDR – 12000/1020000*1000=11.76/1000 MYP

c) Early neonatal mortality – 500/30000*1000=16.6/thousand LB

d) MMR – 120/30000*1lac=400/lac LB

e) Perinatal mortality rate is defined as number of deaths of infants<7 days of age and
fetal deaths >28 weeks of gestation per 1000 live births. Weight>1 kg and crown to heel length
>35 cm
