Hospitalizations
The total number of resident discharges from hospitals during the period indicated for self-inflicted injuries. Because some people may be admitted more than once, the number of hospital discharges is greater than the number of people they represent. Some of the people admitted to the hospital for self-inflicted injuries will have died in the hospital and they would also be counted as deaths from suicide because hospitalizations and deaths are not mutually exclusive groupings. Discharges and emergency room visits are mutually exclusive; patients who are admitted to the hospital through the emergency room will be represented in the discharge data but not the emergency room data.
