World Health Statistics 2011 has
been compiled using publications and databases produced and
maintained by the technical programs and regional offices of WHO.
Indicators have been included on the basis of their relevance to
global public health, the availability and quality of the data, and
the reliability and comparability of the resulting estimates. Taken
together, these indicators provide a comprehensive summary of the
current status of national health and health systems in key areas.
Every effort has been made to ensure the optimal use of reported
country data--adjusted where necessary to deal with missing values,
to correct for known biases and to maximize comparability. In
addition, statistical techniques and modelling have been used to
fill data gaps.
