Age-Adjusted ER Rate due to Urinary Tract Infections

County: Sangamon
Measurement Period: 2020-2022
This indicator shows the age-adjusted emergency room visit rate due to urinary tract infections per 10,000 population aged 18 years and older. Cases with a kidney/urinary tract disorder or an inmmunocompromised state are excluded.

Why is this important?

Urinary tract infections are a serious health problem affecting millions of people each year. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, infections of the urinary tract are the second most common type of infection in the body, accounting for about 8.1 million doctor visits each year. Women are especially prone to UTIs, and one woman in five develops a UTI during her lifetime. Infections generally begin in the urethra, but may migrate up to the bladder and kidneys.
