Prevalence[edit]

In the year 2011, the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from HCUP (Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project) noted that 100% of patients admitted with OSD were discharged from the hospital. Out of the 100%, about half were children who were between ages of 1-17. In 2010, the Nationwide Inpatient Sample recorded that about 53% of all patients admitted and discharged in the hospital with OSD were also between ages of 1-17. In addition, in 2014, a case study of 261 patients was observed over 12 to 24 months. 237 of these patients responded well to sport restriction and nonsteroid anti-inflammatory agents, which resulted in recovery to normal athletic activity. ^[1]

This graph represents the total amount of subjects that were discharged from the hospital with OSD within the years of 2008 and 2011. 100% of patients admitted were discharged, and each year showed that males obtained the disease more frequently than females. any description
