Number of hospitalizations related to hip fractures weighted to be nationally representative of USA hospitalizations among older adults.
Rate per 100,000 population. All rates except the age group specific rates were age-adjusted using the direct method of age adjusting with the 2000 standard USA population.
CI = Confidence Interval.
Totals may not add up due to missing values for sex, census division, urban/rural status and rounding of weighted estimates.
