Hospital discharges for urolithiasis cases in Canada are projected to decline steadily from 34.5 per 100,000 persons in 2024 to 31.2 by 2028. The forecasted decrease represents a yearly average change of approximately -2.5% over these years. This suggests an improving healthcare approach or lifestyle changes addressing urolithiasis risk factors.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in preventive measures and technology, which could further influence discharge rates. Monitoring shifts in population health behaviors and potential changes in healthcare policies could also impact these projections.
