Incidence rates (95% CI) are per 100,000 and adjusted by age and race using standardization to the 2010 United States population. The unweighted number of strokes are shown in square brackets as [n=].

*

Adjusted p-value< 0.05 for comparison between 1993/94 and 2015 using Bonferroni correction

Note: Incidence rates and the unweighted numbers shown are type specific, and “All” includes any type of stroke; Ischemic, ICH, SAH or Unknown. The rate for “All Strokes” was estimated using only those stroke patients with no prior stroke of any type, whereas rates by stroke subtype are estimated using only individuals who have not had a previous stroke of that specific stroke subtype.
