Hospital statistics
Analyzing hospital statistics can provide valuable insights into the healthcare system, patient demographics, and resource allocation. This report presents a comprehensive overview of key data points such as patient admissions, treatments, outcomes, and trends over time. By examining these statistics, healthcare professionals and policymakers can make informed decisions to improve the quality and efficiency of healthcare services.

Hospital statistics Hospital statistics 1
Inpatient: Inpatient: Is a patient who has been formally Is a patient who has been formally admitted to the hospital and to whom admitted to the hospital and to whom room, bed and continuous nursing room, bed and continuous nursing services is provided in an area of the services is provided in an area of the hospital where patients generally hospital where patients generally stay at least overnight. stay at least overnight. 2
1 1- - Inpatient census Inpatient census: : Indicates the number of inpatients Indicates the number of inpatients presented in the hospital at any presented in the hospital at any given time. given time. 2 2- - Bed count days: Bed count days: is a unit of measurement denoting the is a unit of measurement denoting the presence of inpatient bed (either presence of inpatient bed (either occupied or vacant) set up and staffed occupied or vacant) set up and staffed for use in a one for use in a one- -24 24- -hr period. hr period. 3
3 3- - Total bed count days: Total bed count days: Is the sum of inpatients bed count Is the sum of inpatients bed count days in the period under consideration. days in the period under consideration. Example: Example: Suppose: Suppose: 1 1- - The total number of beds available The total number of beds available at a certain hospital is at a certain hospital is 50 2 2- - Month of Shawwal = Month of Shawwal = 30 50 beds. beds. 30 days days 4
The number of total beds available The number of total beds available during month of Shawwal is: during month of Shawwal is: 50 50 x x 30 30 = = 1500 1500 bed counts. bed counts. 5
4 - - Discharges: Discharges: 4 Is a termination of hospitalization, Is a termination of hospitalization, whether alive or dead. Deaths are whether alive or dead. Deaths are considered discharges and they are considered discharges and they are included in the total discharges. included in the total discharges. A fetus that was not alive at the time A fetus that was not alive at the time of delivery was never a patient and is of delivery was never a patient and is not included in inpatient hospital not included in inpatient hospital statistic. statistic. 6
5 5- - Length of stay: Length of stay: Number of calendar days from Number of calendar days from admission to discharge. To compute a admission to discharge. To compute a patient's length of stay from admission patient's length of stay from admission to discharge the date of admission is to discharge the date of admission is subtracted from the date of discharge. subtracted from the date of discharge. 7
For example: For example: 1 1- - if a patient was admitted on Safar if a patient was admitted on Safar 25 25th and discharged Safar 28 length of stay is ( length of stay is (28 28 25 2 2- - If a patient is admitted and If a patient is admitted and discharged on the same day, his discharged on the same day, his length of stay is one day. length of stay is one day. thand discharged Safar 28, his , his ) = 3 3 days. days. 25) = 8
Example Example1 1: : The following data were obtained The following data were obtained from the records of KKU hospital in from the records of KKU hospital in 1420 1420 (Safar month = (Safar month = 30 is calculated for one year: is calculated for one year: 30 days); usually days); usually 9
1 1- - Total number of inpatients Total number of inpatients = = 1869 1869 2 2- - Total number discharged Total number discharged = = 1691 1691 3 3- - Length of stay = Length of stay = 12785 4 4 Total number of beds = Total number of beds = 500 12785 500 10
Calculate: Calculate: Average daily inpatient census: Average daily inpatient census: is the average number of inpatients is the average number of inpatients present each day for a given period of present each day for a given period of time. time. Total number of inpatients in month of Safar Total number of inpatients in month of Safar Total number of days in Safar Total number of days in Safar = = 1869 1869/ / 30 30 = = 62 62 patients patients 11
2 2- -Average daily discharged census: Average daily discharged census: Total number discharged Total number discharged number of days in Safar number of days in Safar = 1691/30 = 56 patients patients 12
3 3- - Average length of stay Average length of stay = Total length of stay during Safar Total length of stay during Safar Total discharged during Safar Total discharged during Safar = = 12785 12785/ / 1691 1691 = = 8 8 days days 13
Bed turnover rate: Bed turnover rate: The number of times a bed, on average, The number of times a bed, on average, change occupants during a given period change occupants during a given period of time. of time. Total number of discharge in Safar Total number of discharge in Safar = Total number of beds Total number of beds = = 1691 1691/ / 500 500 = = 3 3 A bed changed A bed changed 3 average, during average, during Safar 3 occupants, on occupants, on Safar 14
5 5- - Bed turnover interval Bed turnover interval: period where a bed is unoccupied period where a bed is unoccupied between patients. between patients. : = (number of beds) x (number of days in Safar) (number of beds) x (number of days in Safar) length of stay length of stay Number of discharged patients during the month Number of discharged patients during the month = (( = ((500 500) x ( ) x (30 30) ) 12785 12785)/ )/1691 1691 ) = ) = 1.3 1.3 The interval between one occupant The interval between one occupant and the next is and the next is 1 1 day. day. 15
6 6- - Bed occupancy rate Bed occupancy rate: proportion of beds occupied during the proportion of beds occupied during the period of interest. period of interest. Total length of stay during Safar Total length of stay during Safar (Total number of beds) x (# of days in the month) (Total number of beds) x (# of days in the month) : = = = ( = (12785 12785) / ( ) / (500 500) x ( ) x (30 30) = ) = 85.23 85.23% % 16
