* Trend states are those qualified reporting states that reported data in each of the years 1990 to 1994. As the totals are based on the same group of states for each of the five years, they may be compared across years. For the best National Estimate for a single year, use the values in Substitute Care Exhibit 18A.

† Known Age Percentages are based on all categories except for "Age Unknown or Not Reported". Therefore, not applicable (N/A) appears beneath that category for this specification.
