In 2023, hospital discharges for breast disorders in Canada were higher than the forecasted value for 2024, marking a continued decline in the figures over subsequent years. The data indicates a decreasing trend from 8.3 units per hundred thousand persons in 2024 to 6.0 by 2028. Year-on-year, there are observed reductions of approximately 8.4% in 2025, 7.9% in 2026, and further gradual decreases, ultimately leading to a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of decline.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in breast disorder treatment and prevention measures, which could further influence hospital discharge rates. Additionally, healthcare policy changes and increased public awareness regarding early detection and management of breast disorders could potentially accelerate this declining trend.
