Help Looking for Statistics

  • 1.  Help Looking for Statistics

    Posted Feb 20, 2025 12:50 PM

    Hello all,

     

    I hope this is the correct place to post this.  We're working with a patron who is looking for US only statistics on the following:

     

    1. The number of potential tendon injuries per year (partial and full lacerations) and
    2. retears that occur (and when)  
    3. # of people that experience tendinitis or other tendinopathies. 

     

    I'm not sure if any government groups collect this information, but even if we can find information for a subset (emergency room visits, surgeries, hospitalizations, etc.) that could be useful.
