Nationwide Emergency Department Sample (NEDS) Summary Statistics
The Nationwide Emergency Department Sample (NEDS) produces national estimates about emergency department (ED) visits across the country. The NEDS describes ED visits, regardless of whether they result in admission, and is an exceptional resource for conducting research on high-profile emergent health delivery issues. One of the most distinctive features of the NEDS is its large sample size, which allows for analysis across hospital types and the study of relatively uncommon disorders and procedures. The links below provide detailed documentation for the NEDS.

Summary Statistics include means on all numeric variables, frequency distributions, and univariates on continuous variables. Summary statistics are provided for the NEDS, weighted and unweighted, by year.

Some documents are provided in Adobe® Acrobat® (PDF) format. The amount of time needed to access a document depends on your machine, browser, and Internet connection. PDF files require the Adobe® Acrobat® Reader™, which can be downloaded free of charge from Adobe®. PDF Help provides instructions on how to work with PDF files.
