Finished admission episodes with a primary diagnosis of obesity per 100,000 population - Female (15456) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the rate of finished admission episodes with a primary diagnosis of obesity per 100,000 female population.
A finished admission episode (FAE) is the first period of inpatient care under one consultant within one healthcare provider. FAEs are counted against the year in which the admission episode finishes. Admissions do not represent the number of inpatients, as a person may have more than one admission within the year.
The primary diagnosis is the first of up to 20 diagnosis fields in the Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) data set and provides the main reason why the patient was admitted to hospital.
Admissions per 100,000 population are age standardised using the European Standard Population. Population data are taken from Office for National Statistics resident population estimates.
England total may include a small number of admissions for persons of no fixed abode. This data excludes persons resident outside of England. No district council data is available.
