Statistics by Country for Sleep disorders
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Sleep disorders:
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 Sleep disorders 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 Sleep disorders 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 Sleep disorders in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Sleep disorders: The word 'prevalence' of Sleep disorders usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Sleep disorders at any given time (i.e. people with Sleep disorders). The term 'incidence' of Sleep disorders means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Sleep disorders diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Sleep disorders). 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 Sleep disorders: approximately 40 million Americans (NHLBI)
Prevalance Rate for Sleep disorders: approx 1 in 6 or 14.71% or 40 million people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Prevalence Rate of Sleep disorders to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above prevalence rate for Sleep disorders to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these prevalence extrapolations for Sleep disorders are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual prevalence of Sleep disorders in any region:
