5 Executive summary This report outlines key population health indicators relating to mental health outcomes in the population aged in Northwestern Ontario. The statistics in the report focus on the geographical area of the Northwestern Health Unit (NWHU) catchment area and focus on intentional self-harm and suicide, hospitalization from mental and behavioural disorders, as well as alcohol and substance misuse. Some key findings of the report include: Between 2002 and 2011 the mortality rate from suicide in the age group in the NWHU area was 59.1 per 100,000 per year. o This is eight times as high as the provincial rate in this age group of 7.4 per 100,000 per year. o It is also statistically higher than the rates in all other age groups in the NWHU area. In 2015 there were 75 hospitalizations from intentional self-harm in the NWHU area in the population. o This equals an incidence rate of per 100,000, which is nearly four times as high as the provincial rate of per 100,000. o 63 of these hospitalizations (84%) were in females, who have much higher rates than males in this younger age group. The population aged in the NWHU area has higher rates of hospitalization from mental and behavioural disorders compared to the province. o In 2015 the rate in the NWHU area was per 10,000, which was statistically higher than the provincial rate of 94.9 per 10,000. o The rate in the NWHU area increased by 40% between 2008 and Hospitalization rates from substance misuse in the population are also higher in the NWHU area compared to the province. o In 2015 there were 29 hospitalizations from mental and behavioural disorders caused by substance misuse in this population in the NWHU area. At a rate of per 100,000, this was over twice as high as the provincial rate of 76.2 per 100,000. Alcohol is the leading cause of substance-misuse hospitalization among the population. o The hospitalization rate from alcohol misuse in the NWHU area between 2011 and 2015 was 70.6 per 100,000 per year, over five times as high as the provincial rate of 13.1 per 100,000 per year. These indicators provide evidence that child and youth mental health outcomes are particularly adverse in Northwestern Ontario, and help to focus in on key areas and demographics that can be targeted for improvement. 3
6 Introduction It is estimated that approximately 20% of children and youth in Ontario experience a mental health challenge (MCYS, 2016). The Centre for Addictions and Mental Health (CAMH) reported that youth aged were more likely than any other age group to experience a mental illness and/or substance abuse disorder (2016). Since 70% of mental health challenges begin in childhood or adolescence (MCYS, 2016), the need to understand and address child and youth mental health is becoming a top priority in Ontario, and around the world. Mental illness can greatly affect child and adolescent development, success in school and ability to live a fulfilling and productive live (WHO, 2016), highlighting the need to support this age group. The need to support and address child and youth mental health is evident given that suicide is the second leading cause of death among youth aged in Canada (PHAC, 2016). The Youth Suicide Prevention Plan reports that in the last year in Ontario, 10% of students had suicidal thoughts, 3% reported a suicide attempt and that suicide is 5-7 times higher for First Nations and Inuit than non-aboriginal youth (2016). Additionally, in 2012 suicide accounted for 17% of deaths among youth aged 10-14, 28% among those aged15-19 years and 25% of the year old population (CAMH, 2016). The Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) reported that 5% of emergency department and 18% of inpatient hospitalizations for children and youth aged 5-25 in Canada were for a mental disorder in 2013/2014 (2015). Furthermore, emergency department and inpatient hospitalizations for mental disorders have increased by 45% for children and 37% for youth between 2006/07 and 2013/14 (CIHI, 2015). The Northwestern Health Unit (NWHU) catchment area includes the Rainy River District and the western part of the Kenora District. This area includes 19 municipalities, 40 First Nations communities and two unincorporated territories (Kenora unorganized and Rainy River unorganized). The population of about 82,000 people is widely scattered across 171,288 square kilometers, or approximately one-fifth of the province. This report will focus on the outcomes of mental illness in children and youth aged in the NWHU catchment area, and when the term Northwestern Ontario is used, it is referring to this catchment area. By examining the rates of mortality and hospitalization that result from mental illness among children and youth, programs in Northwestern Ontario can gain a better understanding of the supports and resources needed to support this age group. Population health indicators in this report are often reported by Local Health Hub (LHH) area where possible. These Local Health Hubs act as mini catchment areas within the larger NWHU catchment area, and provide a way to geographically group the communities in the area. More information about the Local Health Hubs within the NWHU catchment area can be found in Appendix 4 of this report. 4

8 Mortality Suicide In the 10 years between 2002 and 2011, there were 70 suicides in the NWHU catchment area in the population aged 15-24; equaling an incidence rate of 59.1 per 100,000 per year. This is eight times as high as the provincial rate in this age group during the same time, which was 7.4 per 100,000 per year. This incidence rate is also statistically higher than the rates in all other age groups in the NWHU catchment area. Figure 1 displays rates across the age spectrum for the NWHU area and for Ontario as a comparison. This figure demonstrates the significant gap between rates in young people and the rest of the population. During this time period, males in the age group had a higher mortality rate than females (71.0 per 100,000 per year vs per 100,000 per year), but the difference was not statistically significant. Furthermore, it is important to note that although the data represents the population aged years old, there are also incidence of suicide among children under the age of 15 years; however, the number of cases in that population are very small and therefore cannot be analyzed meaningfully.

9 Of the 70 suicides that occurred in the age group during this time, the majority (80.0%) were committed by hanging, suffocation or strangulation. The second most common method with an additional 11.4% of cases was suicide by firearm discharge. Hospitalization Intentional self-harm Intentional self-harm refers to the intentional, direct injuring of one s own body tissue. This can be done either with or without suicidal intentions. In 2015 there were 75 hospitalizations due to intentional self-harm in the NWHU catchment area in the population aged years old. This equals an incidence rate of per 100,000, which is just under four times as high as the provincial rate of per 100,000, a statistically significant difference. Incidence rates in the NWHU area have been steadily increasing since 2011; the incidence rate in 2015 was twice as high as the rate was in Provincial rates have also been increasing over this time period.

10 Furthermore, hospitalization rates are highest amongst females in younger age groups. Looking at combined incidence rates between 2011 and 2015, the highest rates by far were in females aged and 15-19, with rates of per 100,000 per year and per 100,000 per year respectively. Both of these rates are statistically higher than rates in all the other agesex demographics.

11 Between 2008 and 2015, the Sioux Lookout Local Health Hub had the highest hospitalization rates from self-harm in the NWHU catchment area in the population aged (for information on Local Health Hubs, see Appendix 4). During this time, the hospitalization rate for this population was 48.9 per 10,000 per year in the Sioux Lookout area, statistically higher than the catchment area rate of 31.4 per 10,000 per year. Sioux Lookout s rate was also statistically higher than the rates in all of the other local health hubs Figure 5: Hospitalization from intentional self-harm in the age group by Local Health Hub area, rates per 10,000 per year, combined Hospitalizations per 10,000 per year Ontario Entire NWHU Sioux Lookout Kenora Red Lake Dryden Fort Frances, catchment area Rainy River, Emo, Atikokan Source: Inpatient Discharges Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. IntelliHEALTH Ontario. Date Extracted: September 1, Mental and behavioural disorders Mental and behavioural disorders refers to a chapter in the International Statistical Classification of Disease 10 th Revision (ICD-10). This chapter covers a wide variety of conditions such as mood disorders, disorders due to substance use, neurotic disorders, mental retardation, amongst others. A description of the ICD-10 codes used in this analysis can be found in Appendix 2. People who are admitted as inpatients into hospital are captured in the aforementioned ICD-10 codes through the Discharge Abstract Database (DAD). Additionally, some patients are admitted into designated adult mental health beds in Ontario. This data is captured in the Ontario Mental Health Reporting System (OMHRS), which uses the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4 th Edition (DSM-IV). Information on these diagnostic codes can be found in Appendix 2. Data in this section refers to hospitalizations from both the DAD as well as OMHRS. 9
12 In 2015 there were 258 hospitalizations in the NWHU area for those aged years old, due to mental and behavioural disorders. This equals an incidence rate of hospitalizations per 10,000, which is statistically higher than the provincial rate of 94.9 per 10,000 in Incidence rates have consistently been higher in the NWHU area over the past eight years. Rates have also been increasing during this time in the NWHU area as well as provincially. In 2015 the rate in the NWHU area was 40% higher than the rate in 2008, with the increase being statistically significant.

In the age group, the 5-year combined incidence rate in females is four times as high as the rate in males. Conversely, in the age group the male incidence rate is statistically higher than the female rate. The highest rates overall are in the age group. 10

During this time, the rate there was per 10,000 per year, which is statistically higher than the NWHU catchment area rate of per 10,000 per year. The Sioux Lookout area rate was also statistically higher than all of the other Local Health Hub rates except for Red Lake.

14 Out of the 258 hospitalizations that occurred in the age group in the NWHU area in 2015, the most common reason was for schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders. These disorders accounted for 55 hospitalizations, which was about a fifth of all the cases. Mood disorders accounted for an additional 54 hospitalizations, and other common reasons were substance misuse, adjustment disorders, and neurotic and stress-related disorders. Definitions for the various mood and behavioral disorders can be found in appendix 3. Figure 9: Causes of hospitalization from mental and behavioural disorders in the age group, NWHU, # hospitalizations Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders Mood disorders Substance misuse Adjustment disorders Reason for hospitalization Neurotic and stress-related disorders Other disorders Sources: Inpatient Discharges , Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, IntelliHEALTH Ontario, Date Extracted: June 7, 2016; OMHRS , Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, IntelliHEALTH Ontario, Date Extracted: June 7, 2016 Substance misuse Substance misuse refers to a block of ICD-10 codes that cover mental and behavioural disorders due to psychoactive substance use, as well as substance-related codes in the DSM- IV. This includes hospitalization for causes such as acute intoxication, substance abuse, harmful use, dependence, withdrawal, amongst other substance-related conditions. A full list of ICD-10 and DSM-IV codes used in the analysis can be found in Appendix 2. In 2015, there were 29 hospitalizations from substance misuse in the age group in the NWHU catchment area. This equals an incidence rate of per 100,000, which is 2.3 times as high as the provincial rate of 76.2, a statistically significant difference. Rates in the NWHU area in this age group have been consistently higher than the province in recent years. 12
15 Looking at 5-year combined hospitalization rates from 2011 to 2015 by age group, the NWHU area has considerably higher rates than Ontario across all age groups in the population. The highest rates are in the age group, with a rate of per 100,000 per year in the NWHU area. Figure 10: Hospitalization from substance misuse by age group, NWHU and Ontario, rates per 100,000 per year, combined 400 Hospitalizations per 100,000 per year Age group NWHU Ontario Sources: Inpatient Discharges , Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, IntelliHEALTH Ontario, Date Extracted: June 7, 2016; OMHRS , Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, IntelliHEALTH Ontario, Date Extracted: June 7, 2016 Alcohol-related issues are the most frequent cause of substance misuse hospitalization amongst the age group in the NWHU area. Between 2011 and 2015, out of 141 hospitalizations from substance misuse, 60 were related to alcohol use (42.5%). Other common causes were related to cannabinoid use, opioid use, and substance-induced psychotic disorders. 13

With alcohol being the most frequent substance involved in substance misuse hospitalizations in the NWHU area, it is important to examine its trends as its own category. A full list of the ICD-10 and DSM-IV codes used in analyzing alcohol misuse hospitalizations can be found in Appendix 2. Over the past five years between 2011 and 2015 there were 60 hospitalizations from alcohol misuse in the age group within the NWHU catchment area. This is an incidence rate of 70.6 per 100,000 per year, which is over five times as high as the provincial rate of 13.1 per 100,000 per year, with the difference being statistically significant. Figure 14 below displays hospitalization rates by age group for the NWHU area and Ontario. The year-olds have the highest rates; in the NWHU area their rate is per 100,000 per year, which is six times as high as the province-wide rate in this age group. Rates were also statistically higher in the NWHU area in all the other age groups. 14

Locally, we consistently have higher rates of suicide and self-harm, mental and behavioural conditions and substance misuse. In recent years mortality rates from self-harm in Northwestern Ontario have been higher than provincial rates when examining the entire population. The statistics in this report indicate that this is a particular problem amongst the younger population. In the population aged in the NWHU catchment area, mortality rates from intentional self-harm are eight times as high as the provincial rate. In older populations these rates become closer to provincial rates, highlighting the concern within the younger demographic. Similarly, rates of hospitalization from self-harm are particularly high amongst the younger population in the NWHU catchment area. Also, females have statistically higher rates than males when it comes to hospitalization. Looking at rates of hospitalization from other mental and behavioural disorders, rates in the NWHU catchment area are higher than the province in both males and females in the youth 15
18 population. One of the most common areas of mental and behavioural disorder in the area is substance misuse, particularly alcohol. One limitation of the statistics in this report is that they are only focused on the outcomes of mental health problems (i.e. deaths, hospitalizations). This is important information to examine however, it leaves out the upstream causes that lead to these outcomes. Future reports will attempt to delve deeper into these root causes, but it is important to note that there is far more data available that look at outcomes. The comparative lack of thorough and frequently updated data on root causes of mental health issues is a concern. Another limitation is the small sample sizes often encountered when analyzing with local data. Due to the relatively small population in Northwestern Ontario, some of the numbers being analyzed in this report were quite low, making analysis challenging. Because of this, for many of the indicators in the report multiple years of data had to be combined in order to provide stable estimates. While this solution produces reliable statistics, the downside is that you are unable to examine temporal trends as effectively. All of this considered, these statistics provide locally relevant information on the mental health of the youth population in Northwestern Ontario. Mental health is clearly an area of concern for youth in the area, evidenced by our high rates of mortality and morbidity from self-harm, substance misuse, and other mental and behavioural disorders. The next step is to examine the factors that lead to these outcomes and the development or enhancement of solutions. 16

20 Appendix 1: Data sources and analysis methods All of the data in this report were extracted between June and September of 2017, and came from Vital Statistics Mortality Data, the Discharge Abstract Database (DAD) and the Ontario Mental Health Reporting System (OMHRS). These data sources were all accessed through IntelliHEALTH Ontario. IntelliHEALTH Ontario IntelliHEALTH Ontario is a provincial portal maintained by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, which pulls together administrative data from several databases. The portal can be accessed by authorized users who use the data for analysis and planning of healthcare delivery in Ontario. Vital Statistics Mortality Data This database includes data on all deaths that occur in Ontario, originally distributed by the Ontario Office of Registrar General (ORG), and accessed through IntelliHEALTH Ontario. The ORG provides death registration data to Statistics Canada for national reporting, and with ORG s permission, Statistics Canada provides the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC) with an edited and standardized dataset for Ontario deaths, which is uploaded to IntelliHEALTH. Discharge Abstract Database (DAD) The DAD captures administrative, clinical and demographic information on hospital discharges across Canada. The MOHLTC receives this data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) and uploads it to IntelliHEALTH. Ontario Mental Health Reporting System (OMHRS) OMHRS collects, analyzes and reports on information submitted to CIHI about individuals admitted to designated adult mental health beds in Ontario. The MOHLTC receives this data from CIHI and uploads it to IntelliHEALTH. 18
21 Data Analysis All data analysis for this report were conducted using Microsoft Excel, STATA and Open Epi. Mortality and incidence rates were calculated using the following formula: # of cases Person years * 100,000 Confidence intervals for age-specific incidence rates were calculated using the Mid-P Exact method. Tests for statistical differences between incidence rates were carried out by calculating the odds ratio using the Mid-P Exact method. Results were considered statistically significant if the 95% confidence interval around the calculated odds ratio did not contain 1. Records without a valid age were excluded from age-specific incidence rate calculations, and records without a valid sex were excluded from sex-specific incidence rate calculations. Such records were rare, however, making up <1% of all records in Ontario. All data analysis for mortality and hospitalization rates was based on the home residence of the individual, not where they were hospitalized or died. Hospitalization and mortality data are captured for all Ontario residents who died or were hospitalized in Ontario. Out of province deaths and hospitalizations for Ontario residents are not captured in the data. As an example, if a Kenora resident was hospitalized somewhere else in Ontario (i.e. Thunder Bay), for this analysis they are still coded under Kenora. However, if this resident was hospitalized out of province their record would not show up in the database. 19
22 Appendix 2: ICD-10 and DSM-IV codes International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems 10 th Revision (ICD-10) The ICD-10 is a medical classification list developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) which contains standardized codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, complaints, social circumstances and external causes of injury or disease. A listing of the codes can be found here: Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Version IV (DSM-IV) The DSM is a classification system that offers a common language and a standard criteria for the classification of mental disorders, and is published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA). A listing of the codes can be found here: All of the indicators in this report were based on classifications from ICD-10 or DSM-IV, or a combination of both. For people hospitalized for mental health-related reasons, they can either be admitted as an inpatient into an acute care hospital, in which case their record is captured in the DAD and ICD-10 is used as classification. Or, if a patient is admitted into an adult mental health bed their record is captured in OMHRS, which uses DSM-IV. For mental health hospitalizations, both of these scenarios are combined to obtain total numbers. The following codes were used in classifying the data used in this report: Indicator Database(s) ICD-10 codes DSM-IV codes Mortality from suicide Vital Statistics X60-X84 n/a Mortality Data Hospitalization from DAD X60-X84 n/a intentional-self harm Hospitalization from mental and DAD, OMHRS F00-F V71.09 (all codes included) behavioural disorders Hospitalization from DAD, OMHRS F10-F , substance misuse Hospitalization from alcohol misuse DAD, OMHRS F10-F , ,
23 Appendix 3: Definitions Adjustment disorders: Defined as states of subjective distress and emotional disturbance, usually interfering with social functioning and performance, arising in the period of adaptation to a significant life change or a stressful life event. The stressor may have affected the integrity of an individual's social network (bereavement, separation experiences) or the wider system of social supports and values (migration, refugee status), or represented a major developmental transition or crisis (going to school, becoming a parent, failure to attain a cherished personal goal, retirement). Alcohol misuse: A subcategory of substance misuse, which includes a wide variety of disorders attributable to the use of alcohol. Hospitalization: Hospitalization refers to when a patient has been admitted as an inpatient into a hospital, and is taking a bed for further tests and/or examinations. Incidence: incidence refers to a measure of the probability of occurrence of an event (i.e. hospitalization) in a population within a specified period of time. It is usually expressed as a rate with a denominator (i.e. 20 hospitalizations per 100,000 people per year). Intentional self-harm: Intentional self-harm refers to the intentional, direct injuring of one s own body tissue. This can be done either with or without suicidal intentions Mental and behavioural disorders: refers to a chapter in the International Statistical Classification of Disease 10 th Revision (ICD-10). This chapter covers a wide variety of conditions such as mood disorders, disorders due to substance use, neurotic disorders, mental retardation, amongst others. Similar disorders are also classified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Version IV (DSM-IV) Mood disorders: Mood disorders are considered a change in affect or mood to depression (with or without associated anxiety) or to elation. The mood change is usually accompanied by a change in the overall level of activity; most of the other symptoms are either secondary to, or easily understood in the context of, the change in mood and activity. Most of these disorders tend to be recurrent and the onset of individual episodes can often be related to stressful events or situations. Neurotic and stress-related disorders: Refers to a number of different disorders including a variety of different phobias, anxiety disorders, disorders that result from periods of stress, and other neurotic disorders. Schizophrenia: The schizophrenic disorders are characterized in general by fundamental and characteristic distortions of thinking and perception, and affects that are inappropriate or blunted. Clear consciousness and intellectual capacity are usually maintained although certain cognitive deficits may evolve in the course of time. The course of schizophrenic disorders can be either continuous, or episodic with progressive or stable deficit, or there can be one or more episodes with complete or incomplete remission. 21
24 Substance misuse: This category includes a wide variety of disorders that differ in severity and clinical form but that are all attributable to the use of one or more psychoactive substances, which may or may not have been medically prescribed. It is the abuse of non-dependenceproducing substances like drugs or alcohol. 22
25 Appendix 4: Local Health Hubs A Local Health Hub (LHH) refers to a health service delivery area where most or all sectors of the health system are linked in order to improve patient access The Northwest Local Health Integration Network (NW LHIN) is comprised of five Integrated District Networks (IDN s), and within these IDN s there are a total of 14 LHH s.
