Crude Birth Rate Crude Death Rate Crude Divorce Rate Census Divisions Crude Marriage Rate Infant Mortality Rate Maternal Mortality Ratio Number Provisional Rate of Natural Increase Revised Unknown 4 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 PREFACE PREFACE PREFACE PREFACE The POPULATION AND VITAL STATISTICS REPORT is prepared and published by the Statistical Office, Central Planning Division, Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning.
This report presents statistics on live births, deaths, marriages and divorces for the period 2010 – 2012.

For comparative purposes, historical data for up to ten (10) years is presented.

Population data are obtained from the decennial Population and Housing Census conducted by the Statistical Office.

Statistics on vital events are obtained from administrative records of the Registry Department where all vital events are recorded.
The Chief Statistician and staff of the Statistical Office express gratitude for the assistance and support provided by the staff of the Registry Department and the Ministry of Health, Wellness and the Environment which has responsibility for coding mortality data obtained from the Registry Department.

Notification of errors, omissions and suggestions for the improvement in the format and content of future publications will be appreciated.
Gatlin Roberts Chief Statistician Statistical Office Central Planning Division Ministry of Finance and Planning Kingstown ST. VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES 5 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 METHODOLOGY METHODOLOGY METHODOLOGY METHODOLOGY There are nineteen (19) Administrative Districts in St. Vincent and the Grenadines where the registration of births and deaths take place.
However, for statistical reporting purposes, the Statistical Office has regrouped the births and deaths to reflect the usual residence of mothers within the respective census divisions rather than Administrative Districts.

This facilitates easy comparison of vital events with other socio economic statistics provided by the Statistical Office.
In the case of live births, data is grouped according to age of mother, sex of baby, order of birth/parity, month when birth took place and legitimate or illegitimate status of mother at time of birth.

Data on deaths are also grouped by sex, month and usual place of residence.

The cause of death is grouped by disease category in conformity with the new Pan American Health Organisation’s (PAHO) list 6/67 for tabulation of ICD-10 mortality.
The activities of data collation and tabulation are done by the end of the first quarter in the current year.

The lag in providing vital statistics is about three (3) months.

However, late registrations especially for births occurring in the month of December, affects the timely dissemination of vital statistics.
6 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 CONCEPT AND DEFINITION CONCEPT AND DEFINITION CONCEPT AND DEFINITION CONCEPT AND DEFINITION LIVE BIRTH The complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of conception, irrespective of the duration of the pregnancy, which after such separation, breathes or shows other evidence of life, such as beating of the heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, whether or not the umbilical cord has been cut or the placenta is attached.
Each product to such a birth is considered to be live born.

STILL BIRTH A stillbirth is a baby born with no signs of life at or after 28 weeks gestation.

CRUDE BIRTH RATE The Crude Birth Rate indicates the number of live births per 1,000 population in a given year.

FETAL DEATH A fetal death is formally defined as death prior to the complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of conception irrespective of the duration of pregnancy.
DEATH Death is the permanent disappearance of all evidence of life at any time after birth has taken place.

A death can only occur after a live birth has taken place.

CRUDE DEATH RATE The Crude Death Rate is the number of deaths per 1,000 population in a given year.

INFANT MORTALITY RATE The Infant Mortality Rate is the number of deaths to infants under 1 year of age per 1,000 live births in a given year.
7 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 NEONATAL MORTALITY A neonatal death is defined as a death during the first 28 days of life (age 0 – 28 days).

Neonatal mortality is broken down into early and late neonatal mortality.

Early neonatal mortality refers to death of an infant during the first 6 days of life (age 0 – 6 days).

Late neonatal mortality refers to death of an infant age 7 – 28 days.
POST NEONATAL MORTALITY Post neonatal mortality refers to infant deaths after 28 days but before attaining 1 year of age.

RATE OF NATURAL INCREASE The rate of Natural Increase is the rate at which the population is increasing (or decreasing) in a given year due to surplus (or deficit) of births over deaths as a percentage of the base population.
LIFE EXPECTANCY AT BIRTH Life expectancy at birth is defined as the average number of years that a new-born could expect to live if he or she were to pass through life subject to the age specific mortality rates of a given period.

TOTAL FERTILITY RATE The total fertility rate (TFR) is the average number of children that would be born to a woman by the time she ended childbearing if she were to pass through all her childbearing years conforming to the age-specific fertility rates of a given year.
GROSS REPRODUCTIVE RATE The gross reproductive rate (GRR) is the average number of daughters that would be born to a woman (or group of women) during her lifetime if she passed through her childbearing years conforming to the ave-specifc fertility rates of a given year.

CRUDE MARRIAGE RATE The marriage rate (also called the crude marriage rate) is the number of marriages per 1,000 total population in a given year.
This rate is calculated using the number of marriages, not the number of people getting married and includes both first marriage and remarriages.

8 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 DIVORCE RATE The divorce rate (or crude divorce rate) indicates the number of divorces per 1,000 population in a given year.
The rate is calculated using the number of divorces 9 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 POPULATION POPULATION POPULATION POPULATION 10 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 Table 1.1: Household Population at Census Years by Age Group and Sex Age Group 0 0-4 5-9 10-14 15-19 20-24 25-29 30-34 35-39 40-44 45-49 50-54 55-59 60-64 65-69 70-74 75-79 80-84 85+ Not Stated 1980 1991 2001 2012 Male Female Total Male Female Total Male Female Total Male Female Total 0

There was an increase in the total number of births from 1,725 in 2011, to 1,840 in 2012.

The lowest recorded number of births for the period under review was in 2011 with a total of 1,725 live births.

 There was little variation in the Crude Birth Rate (CBR) between 2010 and 2012.

During the period under review, the CBR was at its lowest in 2011 with 15.7 live births per 1000 persons in the population.

 The sex ratio at birth fluctuated during the three year period under review.
There were 103.4 males per 100 females in 2010, 104.1 males to 100 females in 2011 and 101.1 males to 100 females in 2012.

 The total number of births to teenage mothers (under age 19) declined steadily between 2010 and 2012.

In 2010, 2011 and 2012, births to teenage mothers account for, 19.0%, 18.7% and 17.8% of total births respectively.

 In each year, more than half of the total registered births were to women in the age groups 20-29.
Over the three (3) year period, the proportion of births to women in these age groups increased slightly from 50.1 percent in 2010 to 51.3 percent in 2012.

 In 2011 and 2012, over 60 percent of total registered births were to women with no occupation.

This group includes those who reported they were unemployed at the time the birth took place, as well as women considered to be out of the labour force (women in home duties, full time students etc.).
14 ST VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES Population and Vital Statistics Report 2012 Births to unmarried, divorced or widowed women (Illegitimate births) accounted for the largest percentage of total births.

In 2010, 2011 and 2012, illegitimate births accounted for 83.5%, 83.9% and 84.4% of total births respectively.
