Asthma recorded by GPs in St. Helens, and deaths from asthma.
Plain-English context
8.2% of patients aged 6 and over registered at GP practices in St. Helens were on the asthma register in 2024/25. This excludes patients with no asthma-related prescription in the previous 12 months. No publishable asthma death rate is available for St. Helens in 2022–24. Small counts can be suppressed; this does not mean there were no deaths. Register prevalence is not age-adjusted. The mortality rate is age-standardised, and rare events carry uncertainty.
