1. Average daily inpatient census for adults and children (A&C):

Average daily inpatient census for A&C = Total # of inpatient service days (IPSDs) for A&C in a period
Total # of days in the same period

= 8,271
30

= 275.7
2. Average daily inpatient census for newborns (NBs):

Average daily inpatient census for NBs = Total # of IPSDs for NBs in a period
Total # of days in the period

= 756
30

= 25.2

3. Total average daily inpatient census:

Total average daily inpatient census = Total # of IPSDs in a period

Total # of days in the period

= 9,027
30

= 300.9

4. Average length of stay (ALOS) adults and children (A&C):

ALOS for A&C = Total LOS for A&C (discharge days)

Total # of A&C discharges

= 8,350
865

= 9.7 days

5. Average length of stay (ALOS) for newborns (NBs):

ALOS for NBs = Total LOS for all NBs (discharge days)
Total # of NB discharges

= 552
138

= 4 days

6. Total ALOS:

Total ALOS = Total LOS (discharge days)

Total # of discharges

= 8,902
1,003

= 8.9 days
7. Inpatient bed occupancy rate for adults and children (A&C):

Total inpatient bed count days for A&C = # of A&C beds x days in the period
= 275 x 30
= 8,250

Inpatient bed occupancy rate for A&C = Total # of IPSDs for A&C for a period x 100
Total inpatient bed count days for A&C for same period

= 8,271 x 100
8,250

= 100.3%

8. Inpatient bed occupancy rate for newborns (NBs):

Total inpatient bed count days for NBs = # of NB beds x days in the period
= 25 x 30
= 750

Inpatient bed occupancy rate for NBs = Total # of IPSDs for NBs for a period x 100
Total inpatient bed count days for NBs for same period

= 756 x 100
750

= 100.8%

9. Total inpatient bed occupancy rate:

Total inpatient bed count days = # of beds x days in the period

= 300 x 30
= 9000

Total inpatient bed occupancy rate = Total # of IPSDs for a period x 100
Total inpatient bed count days for same period

= 9,027 x 100
9,000

= 100.3%

10. Gross death rate:

Gross death rate = Total # of inpatient deaths (including NBs) x 100

Total # of discharges (including deaths and NBs)

= 32 x 100
1,003

= 3.2%
11. Net death rate:

Net death rate = Total # of inpatient deaths (including NBs) minus deaths < 48 hours of admission x 100
Total # of discharges (including deaths and NBs minus deaths < 48 hours of admission)

= (32-11) x 100
(1003 – 11)

= 2.1%

12. Newborn (NB) death rate:

NB death rate = Total # of NB deaths for a period x 100

Total # of NB discharges

= 3 x 100
138

= 2.2%

13. Fetal death rate:

Fetal death rate = Total # of intermediate & late fetal deaths x 100
Total # of births + total # of intermediate & late fetal deaths

= 8 x 100
(138 + 8)

= 5.5%
