Hospital characteristics used for a representative sample of hospitals
|
Hospitals participate voluntarily. We try to include in the sample large and small hospitals, rural and urban, academic and general hospitals and as much as possible different geographical areas in the country. Based on research (2004) we conclude that the sample is relatively representative for common accidents. We do not report about accidents with too small numbers. We almost always report on yearly averages, based on 5-year data.

Creating MDS directly from LIS instead from FDS provides better information
