Disability-adjusted life year

A disability-adjusted life year (DALY) is a measure of overall disease burden, representing a year lost due to ill-health, disability, or early death. It was developed in the 1990s as a way of comparing the overall health and life expectancy of different countries.

The concept has become more common in the field of public health and health impact assessment (HIA). It combines both potential years of life lost due to premature death (mortality) and to poor health or disability (morbidity) into a single metric. Provided by Wikipedia
