Hospital surgical activity - Services received: Acute and elective patient discharge volumes

These tables show the number of people in your DHB area who were discharged from surgical specialties. The information is split into acute and elective patients. An acute patient is one who requires immediate assessment or treatment. An elective patient requires less urgent treatment and whose surgery (eg, hip replacement) can be scheduled for a future date.
