About the statistics
The information under «About the statistics» was last updated 12 September 2021.
General Hospitals are hospitals that admit patients with physical disorders; as opposed to psychiatric hospitals.
In-patients: admission with an actual or planned overnight stay.
Patients with day cases: admission without an overnight stay and treatment at the out-patient clinic that is more comprehensive than an out-patient consultation.
Out-patients: short-term treatment performed in hospital.
Bed-days: is the number of days an admitted patient with in-patient stays takes up a bed.
Classification of diseases:diagnoses are encoded by ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases). Classification ICD-10 gives information on the patient's condition, but gives little information about the treatment.
Diagnosis refers to the main condition for which the patient receives treatment.
