cases\" is equal to the sum of admissions plus the discharges including deaths divided by 2. As of
reporting year 2002 the number of acute admissions and discharges includes day cases (patients
admitted for a medical procedure or surgery in the morning and released before the evening). Source:

Estimation Method: Scotland could not provide 2010 data due to data completeness issues and so this
figure has been estimated using 2009 data for Scotland. This figure will be revised when 2010 data
for Scotland is available.
Break in Time Series: Data from 2000 onwards is not comparable with data from prior to this. This
is due to work conducted to improve compliance with definitions and consistency of methodologies
across the four parts of the UK
2010 - All data is financial year data with the exception of Scotland whose data is calendar year.
