    T.R.A.N.S.A.X., the N.C.H.S. system for producing multiple cause-of-death statistics, 1968-1978
  • Description:
    This report describes the characteristics of the TRANSAX (for Translation of AXis) computer software developed by staff of the National Center for Health Statistics to translate multiple cause-of-death data contained on death certificates from a condition (entity) axis of classification to a person (record) axis of classification. This conversion is an essential step in the development of data for meaningful tabulation and analysis. System development, implementation, benefits, features, and applications are discussed.
