Three-year hospitalization trends: opioids, alcohol, cocaine and amphetamines
This research brief examines three-year trends in hospital admissions related to opioids, alcohol, cocaine and amphetamines (calendar years 2017, 2018 and 2019). It includes Pennsylvania residents, age 15 and older, who were admitted to a Pennsylvania general acute care hospital. This analysis does not include substance-related encounters that did not result in a hospital admission such as those treated in the emergency department and not admitted to the hospital and substance-related deaths that occurred outside the hospital setting.
