Percentage of emergency admission to any hospital in England occurring within 30 days of the last, previous discharge from hospital after admission (12159) Metric type

- Percentage of emergency admission to any hospital in England occurring within 30 days of the last, previous discharge from hospital after admission.
The indicator is an indirectly standardised proportion, standardised by age, sex, method of admission and diagnosis / procedure. The all persons proportion is standardised by using England age, sex, method of admission and diagnosis / procedure proportions for 2007/08 as standards. The diagnosis and procedure groups for standardisation are defined at ICD 10 / OPCS 4 coding chapter, sub-chapter or 3 digit level where the readmission proportion was significantly different from that of the next higher level in two consecutive financial years and there were at least 50 discharges in each year. The gender specific proportions are standardised using the same England all persons standards, in order to highlight differences across gender.
An indirectly standardised ratio is calculated by dividing the observed number of events in an area by the number of events that would be expected if the area had experienced the same readmission proportions as those of patients in England, given the mix of age, sex, method of admission and diagnosis / procedure of its patients. This ratio is then converted back into a proportion by multiplying it by the overall readmission proportion for England.
