1) Substance-related disorders presented in this report are mental and behavioural disorders. Users are cautioned not to compare the results with those of the indicator Hospital Stays for Harm Caused by Substance Use reported in the Your Health System web tool. The latter results are based on a broader set of conditions, including poisonings. 2) Prior to 2014–2015, indicators were made available only for health regions with a population greater than 75,000. 3) Psychiatric hospital discharges were excluded from these analyses. 4) Standardized rates were age-adjusted using a direct method of standardization.
