NTRODUCTION
The forty-third annual report, Part II, of the Public Health Statistics Section,
formerly known as the Bureau of Vital Statistics, presents tabular information regarding
North Carolina's population, births, deaths, and fetal deaths. The maj ority of the tabu-lations
are by place of residence; selected tabulations, in whole or in part, are given
by place of occurrence. Communicable disease morbidity data are shown in Part I of the
annual report of the Section which is printed separately.
Reports have been published annually since 1914 with the exception of the years 1918
and 1919.
Certificates of births, deaths, and fetal deaths occurring in 1958 that were filed
in 1958 and the first three months of 1959 are included in this report. It is estimated
that vital events occurring in 1958 but reported after the first three months of 1959
will comprise less than two per cent of the total 1958 events. There are strong indi-cations
that registration in the state has been improving in recent years. The certi-ficates
are more complete and accurate and on the average have been filed more promptly.
Again in 1958 a tabulation was made of all birth and death certificates filed in
1958 by year of occurrence (see 1950 or 1951 annual report for explanation of interpre-tation).
This was done in an effort to determine the per cent of certificates filed in
time to be included in an annual report as compared with those filed too late to be in-cluded.
The results of this study are shown in Table 8 of this report. This tabulation
was prepared by county of residence in order to make available a correction factor that
could be used by each county to more accurately calculate the natality and mortality
rates.
POPULATION
The population data in this report are estimated as of July 1, 1958, by the arithmetic
method. This method assumes that each county or city had the same actual annual increase
or decrease between 1957 and 1958 that it had on the average each year between 1940 and
1950.
NATALITY
In 1958 there were 110,492 live births occurring to mothers who were residents of
the state. All births were allocated to the place of residence of the mother regardless
of the place of birth or the length of residence. Births occurring in hospitals, sana-toria,
and all other institutions, were allocated to the place where the mother lived.
Births occurring on military bases to military personnel were allocated according to the
residence shown on the certificate. The crude birth rate was 24.7 births per 1,000 popu-lation.
There were 74,522 white births and 35,970 nonwhite births. For the thirteenth
consecutive year, over 100,000 births were recorded.
This state defines a fetal death as a fetus showing no evidence of life after com-plete
birth if the twentieth week of gestation has been reached. There were 2,193 resi-dent
fetal deaths reported, resulting in a ratio of 19.8 fetal deaths per 1,000 live
births. If fetal deaths were considered as a single cause of death, they would rank
fourth between cancer and influenza and pneumonia as a leading cause of death.
ANNUAL REPORT NINETEEN HUNDRED FIFTY-EIGHT
PREMATURE BIRTHS
In order to achieve uniformity in the classification of premature infants in need
of special care, and comparability of statistical data in hospitals and in studies of
such infants, the definition of the American Academy of Pediatrics has been adopted;
that is, a premature infant is an infant weighing 2500 grams (5^ pounds) or less at birth
regardless of the period of gestation.
In 1958 there were 9,547 resident premature live births reported among 110,492 live
births. Birth weight was reported on all but 92 certificates filed in 1958. Conse-quently,
at least 8.6 per cent of the new bom babies weighed 2500 grams or less at birth.
The number of premature infants by birth weight and color and by birth weight and age of
mother are shown in the tables which follow:
RESIDENT PREMATURE LIVE BIRTHS BY COLOR AND WEIGHT: NORTH CAROLINA, 1958
Birth weight in grams
NORTH CAROLINA PUBLIC HEALTH STATISTICS SECTION
MORTALITY
There were 35,648 resident deaths recorded in 1958. The crude death rate was 8.0
deaths per 1,000 estimated population. Deaths were allocated to the place where the
deceased resided unless the place of death item indicated that the deceased had been in
the place of death for one year or more. In such cases they were allocated to the place
of death, unless the death occurred in an institution. If this was the case, they were
allocated to the place of residence, regardless of the length of stay in the institution.
All mortality statistics shown by cause in this report are classified according to
the Seventh Decennial Revision of the International Lists of Diseases and Causes of Death.
This is the first year that this revised statistical code has been applied to the causes
of death.
In Table 14, regarding deaths from selected causes with rates, 1918-1958, it is
necessary to take into consideration the effect of the revision of the International
List and of the joint cause of death coding procedure in making comparisons between the
trend in causes of death since 1949 with prior years. Comparability ratios for specific
causes of death may be obtained upon request.
IMFA?fT AND MATERNAL MORTALITY
There were 3,603 infant deaths and 63 maternal deaths reported. The resultant infant
death rate perl, 000 live births was 32.5 while the maternal death rate was5.7per 10,000
live births.
In 1918 there was an all-time high rate of 101. 8 infant deaths per 1,000 live births.
The infant mortality rate was more than three times as high at that time as it was in
1958 while the maternal rate was nearly 18 times higher in 1918.
HOSPITAL DATA
All tables in this report which reflect events occurring in hospitals are based on
the general and allied hospital definition of the North Carolina Medical Care Commission.
A hospital is defined as a place where two or more non-related individuals reside 24
hours or more on the premises and receive medical care over and above any domiciliary
care.
RATES
All rates shown in this report are crude rates unless otherwise specified. Such
rates have not been adjusted for differences in the age, sex, color, rural or urban distri-bution
of the population, or for underregistration or late reporting. Such factors
should be kept in mind when comparing two different areas or time periods.
DIVORCES AND ANNULMENT OF MARRIAGES
The central registration of Divorces and Annulment of Marriages became effective
January 1, 1958 by statutory provision. With the increased needs for information on the
family as well as the individual, the action of the North Carolina General Assembly repre-sents
a step forward in providing a mechanism for recording such events in a central
office. There was a total of 5,278 absolute divorces and 91 annulments of marriage re-corded
for the year. Tabulation of divorces by plaint iff , race, type, grounds, and other
characteristics are now possible for the entire state.
