Individuals with anorexia nervosa have the highest mortality rate among psychiatric disorders.
Eating disorders have a mortality rate of around 5.6%, with anorexia nervosa having the highest mortality rate among all mental illnesses. However, it's important to note that this percentage can vary based on factors like early detection, access to treatment, and individual health conditions.
Sadly, we do not have clear statistics, as many people who die from their eating disorders have listed as the cause of death other conditions, such as cardiac complications as the cause of death, thus skewing the numbers. National epidemiological studies are needed for determining the natural history, morbidity, and mortality of all eating disorders (Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorders and Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified). There is a particular need for clearer information about mortality rates, especially for anorexia nervosa. That said, here are some stats that might help you out: * Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness * A study by the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders reported that 5 - 10% of anorexics die within 10 years after contracting the disease; 18-20% of anorexics will be dead after 20 years and only 30 - 40% ever fully recover * The mortality rate associated with anorexia nervosa is 12 times higher than the death rate of ALL causes of death for females 15 - 24 years old. * 20% of people suffering from anorexia will prematurely die from complications related to their eating disorder, including suicide and heart problems
The mortality rate for inhalation anthrax is significantly higher than ten percent; it can be as high as 85% if left untreated. Prompt diagnosis and aggressive treatment with antibiotics can improve survival rates, but even with treatment, mortality remains substantial. In contrast, the mortality rates for cutaneous anthrax are much lower, typically around 1%.
There are various figures for the mortality rate at Brookdale Hospital. The mortality rate for heart attacks at the hospital are 18.1%. The mortality rate for heart failure is 10.1%. The mortality rate for pneumonia is 9.4%.
Though many mental disorders can have physical side effects, and eating disorder is one of the only mental disorders that is also an actual physical disorder. Eating disorders often rob the body of essential nurtients (for disorders like bulimia and anorexia). Starvation and physical abuse (like laxatives, purging, and excessive exercise) can wreak havoc on the body. Other eating disorders contribute to poor butrition (binge eating, compulsive-over-eating, for example) and can lead to obesity-related health problems like diabetes.
mortality rate - death rate
Eating disorder have a lower death rate than psychological disorders (which have exceedingly high rates of suicide).
