- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202100900001Description:
In light of increasing Canadian immigration levels, an updated analysis of hospitalization patterns among immigrants to Canada, relative to the Canadian-born population, is needed to inform health care system policy and planning. Using immigrant landing administrative data linked to health care data, this descriptive study aims to examine hospitalization rates and leading causes of hospitalization, including mental health in immigrants and the Canadian-born population, stratified by sex and selected immigration characteristics.
Release date: 2021-09-15 - Articles and reports: 11-633-X2017005Description:
Hospitalization rates are among commonly reported statistics related to health-care service use. The variety of methods for calculating confidence intervals for these and other health-related rates suggests a need to classify, compare and evaluate these methods. Zeno is a tool developed to calculate confidence intervals of rates based on several formulas available in the literature. This report describes the contents of the main sheet of the Zeno Tool and indicates which formulas are appropriate, based on users’ assumptions and scope of analysis.
Release date: 2017-01-19 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201600814647Description:
This study is based on 2006 Census (long-form) socio-demographic information (including Aboriginal identity) that was linked to the Discharge Abstract Database to create a sample for analysis from all provinces and territories except Quebec. The purpose is to provide national figures on acute care hospitalizations of Aboriginal (First Nations living on and off reserve, Métis, Inuit in Inuit Nunangat) and non-Aboriginal people.
Release date: 2016-08-17 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201600814648Description:
This study reports the initial results of the recent Immigrant Landing File-to-Discharge Abstract Database linkage – specifically, a bivariate overview of acute care hospitalization rates by immigration category, landing year, and source world region at the national level.
Release date: 2016-08-17 - 5. All-cause and circulatory disease-related hospitalization, by generation status: Evidence from linked data ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X201501014227Description:
This study uses data from the 2006 Census of Population (long-form respondents) linked to administrative records to determine if hospitalization patterns among first-generation immigrants persist in the second generation, and if patterns differ between South Asians and Chinese subgroups, when socioeconomic covariates are taken into account.
Release date: 2015-10-21 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201400211902Geography: CanadaDescription:
Based on 2004/2005 to 2009/2010 data from the Discharge Abstract Database, this study examines associations between unintentional injury hospitalizations and socio-economic status and location relative to an urban core in Dissemination Areas with a high percentage of First Nations identity residents versus a low percentage of Aboriginal identity residents based on the predominant Aboriginal group.
Release date: 2014-02-19 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201200311699Geography: CanadaDescription:
Rates of unintentional injury hospitalization were calculated for 0- to 19-year-olds in census Dissemination Areas (DAs) where at least 33% of residents reported an Aboriginal identity. DAs were classified as high-percentage First Nations, Métis or Inuit identity based on the predominant group.

This study describes an area-based method of calculating standardized, comparable hospitalization rates for areas with varying concentrations of foreign-born, at national and subnational levels.
Release date: 2012-07-18 - 9. Hospitalizations for Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions (ACSC): The Factors That Matter ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-622-X2011007Geography: CanadaDescription:
Hospitalizations related to ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSC) represent an indirect measure of access to primary care and the capacity of the system to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. ACSC-related hospitalizations are commonly referred to as avoidable hospitalizations and thus a measure of the performance of the primary care system. There is limited evidence linking the availability of primary care and ACSC-related hospitalizations. There is, however, growing evidence regarding the role of patient characteristics, such as socioeconomic status, that may place individuals at higher risk for such a hospitalization.
This study represents the first national level assessment of a broad range of factors associated with ACSC-related hospitalizations. The unique feature of this study is the focus on those individuals most at risk - that is, those with at least one ACS condition. The study is based on the linked health survey and hospital data that provide comprehensive information regarding patient characteristics, their access to primary care and whether or not they experienced an ACSC related hospitalization. Understanding the role of these factors may shed light on how primary care services may reduce the risk of these avoidable hospital admissions.
Release date: 2011-06-30 - 10. Mental Comorbidity and Its Contribution to Increased Use of Acute Care Hospital Services ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-622-X2011006Geography: CanadaDescription:
About one in five Canadians have suffered from a mental condition at some point in their lives. Like other health conditions, mental conditions represent an economic burden to society, and costs are often comparable to physical conditions such as heart disease. Expenditures on mental conditions and addictions for Canadian provinces in 2003/2004 were $6.6 billion, of which $5.5 billion was from public sources.
Major psychiatric conditions are often associated with physical comorbidity - in particular, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure and respiratory conditions. Reasons for this association are diverse, and not fully understood. Many health conditions increase the risk for a mental condition. Mental comorbidity can complicate help-seeking, diagnosis, and treatment, and it influences prognosis. Hence understanding the burden of mental conditions as a comorbid condition among those with physical morbidities is important.
This report represents an assessment of a comprehensive set of factors associated with acute-care hospitalizations for mental conditions in Canada. The first part explores the overall burden of a mental condition as the most responsible condition (the condition considered most responsible for the hospitalization) and as a comorbid condition (a diagnosed condition other than the most responsible for the hospitalization) in acute-care hospitals in Canada. It presents the number of hospitalizations, the number of hospital days and the average length of stay of a hospitalization. In the second part, linked health survey and hospital data are used to describe the socioeconomic and lifestyle factor characteristics of patients who were admitted to an acute-care hospital with a mental condition within four years after responding to the survey.
