Statistics by Country for Colonic volvulus
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Colonic volvulus:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Colonic volvulus are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Colonic volvulus statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Colonic volvulus in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Colonic volvulus: The word 'prevalence' of Colonic volvulus usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Colonic volvulus at any given time (i.e. people with Colonic volvulus). The term 'incidence' of Colonic volvulus means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Colonic volvulus diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Colonic volvulus). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Incidence (annual) of Colonic volvulus: 3 per 100,000 persons per year
Incidence Rate for Colonic volvulus: approx 1 in 33,333 or 0.00% or 8,160 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Colonic volvulus to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Colonic volvulus to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Colonic volvulus are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Colonic volvulus in any region:
