ICD-9 Injury Data

This IBIS-PH module queries injury data only. Data in this module are consistent with the injury case definitions found in the Consensus Recommendations for Using Hospital Discharge Data for Injury Surveillance (2003) developed by the State and Territorial Injury Program Directors Association (STIPDA) Injury Surveillance Workgroup, available at http://www.stipda.org/documents/hdd.pdf (see pages 7-11).

ED Treat and Release, Inpatient Admissions, and All Ecounters

Treat and Release: A patient that visits the ED, but is not admitted to the hospital as an inpatient. The patient does not stay overnight and is not admitted to another department of the hospital.

Treat and Admit (Inpatient Admissions): An ED patient that later become and inpatient. An inpatient stay involves and overnight stay and admission to another department of the hospital, such as the ICU.

All ED Encounters: All ED encounters includes all treat and release patients and all inpatient admissions through the ED.

Charges, Costs, Expenditures

Charges are what is on the hospital bill. Not all charges get paid. For instance, oftentimes, Medicaid or an insurance company will pay a certain percentage of the charges, and then the hospital has to write off the rest. Charges are what is on the UB92 billing form, and is the only piece of information we have access to. Costs are harder to measure and not available. Expenditures are bound to be less than charges.

Crude Rate

A crude rate is a fraction, in which the numerator is the number of people in whom an event occurred during a certain period of time, and the denominator is the total number of people in the population at risk for the same period of time.

Quartile Map

A "Quartile" map assigns areas to four groups. Each group includes the SAME NUMBER of areas. For instance, for local health districts, each group includes three areas. Group membership and map color are based on the rank order of area rates, from the lowest rate to the highest. The first quartile is colored white and consists of areas with the lowest rates. Areas with the darkest color have the highest rates. Percentile maps such as this assign 25% of the areas to the "highest" category, even when area rates are very close. In other words, just because an area is in the "highest" category doesn't necessarily mean that the rate is significantly high.
Data table and Quartile Map

High-Low-Same Map

A "High-Low-Same" map assigns areas to three groups. Group membership and map color are based on whether each area's rate is significantly different (higher or lower) from the state rate. An area's rate is considered significantly different if the overall state rate falls outside (above or below) the confidence interval for that area. Maps such as this one may lack color variation if the area rates are based on very few cases and have wide confidence intervals. In other words, just because an area's rate is statistically the "same" as the state rate doesn't necessarily mean that the rate is not meaningfully high or low.

ED Inpatient Admissions versus HDDB Inpatients

The HDDB includes all inpatient hospital admissions, some of which come from the ED, and others do not. There is a subset of patients, those who come in through the ED and are later admitted as an inpatient, who are in both datasets.
