Information on deaths caused by gastritis is difficult to ascertain for a variety of reasons. Gastritis can cause complications which lead to death; there are different kinds and varying degrees of severity of gastritis. Often gastritis is lumped in with other digestive system disorders. Finding statistics is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The most recent reliable statistics come from the 1980s. 703 people in the United States died in that decade as a result of gastritis. Based on that information, it has been forecast, based on even older and lower numbers from the turn of the century, that 703 people will die every year from gastritis in the United States. The highest percentage of deaths is in the very young and very aged populations.
