Statistics by Country for Edema
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Edema:
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 Edema 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 Edema 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 Edema in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Edema: The word 'prevalence' of Edema usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Edema at any given time (i.e. people with Edema). The term 'incidence' of Edema means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Edema diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Edema). 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. |
Prevalance of Edema: 1.6% of population self-reported having oedema in Australia 2001 (ABS 2001 National Health Survey, Australia’s Health 2004, AIHW)
Prevalance Rate for Edema: approx 1 in 62 or 1.60% or 4.4 million people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Edema to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Edema to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Edema are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Edema in any region:
