Note: Data from the National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS) of non-Federal U.S. short-stay hospitals conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics.
– There were fewer than 30 NHDS records for this cell of the table. Data are not reported because of questionable reliability.
* This is the period before implementation of a new sample design. Some of the differences between the 1979–1987 statistics and those of later years may be due to sampling error rather than changes in hospital utilization patterns.
