Notes: An inpatient discharge occurs when a person who was admitted to a hospital leaves that hospital. A person who has been hospitalized more than once in a given calendar year will be counted multiple times as a discharge and included more than once in the hospital inpatient discharge data set; thus, the numbers in this report are for discharges, not persons. All county-level data is based on patient zip code of residence and not the location of hospitalization. Federal, military and Department of Veteran Affairs hospitals are excluded. All discharges are for the residents of Arizona. Discharges of out-of-state residents are not included in this report. The emergency room (ER) and the inpatient hospitalization data are mutually exclusive. The ER data include only those who were not admitted as inpatients.

This report distinguishes discharges with diagnosis of poisoning by misuse of, accidents in the use of, abuse of, or dependence on drugs other than alcohol or tobacco from discharges related to drug poisoning. The first-listed (or primary) diagnosis is used to identify the discharges with drug-poisoning diagnosis. Any mention of ICD-9-CM codes related to drug use, misuse or abuse in up to nine diagnostic fields is used to identify the drug-related discharges.

The first-listed (or primary) diagnosis was used to identify the inpatient hospitalizations or emergency room visits for drug dependence and drug abuse (ICD-9-CM codes 292, 304, 305.2-305.9, 760.70, 760.72-760.79, 965.0-965.02, 965.09, 967.0, 969.0, 969.4-969.7) in Tables E1-E6. Any mention of ICD-9-CM codes related to drug psychoses, drug dependence and abuse (292, 304, 305.2-305.9), noxious influences affecting the fetus (760.70, 760.72-760.79) and poisoning by drugs, medicinal and biological drug dependence and drugs (960.0-979.9) in up to nine diagnostic fields was used to identify drug-related discharges in Tables A - D.

Additional information about drug-related deaths among Arizona residents also is available online.
