(2) Numbers of discharges are weighted national estimates based on 100% of the data from the HCUP
Nationwide Inpatient Sample. Results are not presented for any diagnosis category for which
the unweighted number of discharges is less than 70. Estimates presented here have a relative
error of less than 30%. Out of the "All Discharges" category, 12,218 discharges had missing or
