Abstract
Introduction: The study aims to describe cervical cancer (CC) mortality by age group in Georgia. Study design and statistical analysis. Descriptive analysis was conducted using mortality data during the period of 2014-2018 from the National Statistics Office of Georgia. For data analysis, descriptive statistics were performed, in which the mortality rates, age-specific mortality rates per 100,000 female population and other statistical measurements median, the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3) of age at death from Cervical cancer were estimated. Statistical analysis was completed by using the programs of EpiInfo version 7 and Statistical Package of the Social Science (SPSS) version 23 for Windows. The 95% of Confidence Interval (95% CI) was used in order to estimate the statistical reliability of the results.
