Fractures are the most common type of injury that results in admission to a hospital in Australia. This report describes injury cases hospitalised in Australia during the financial year 2001-02 that involved fractures. The report provides an overview of hospitalised fractures in terms of case numbers and rates, demographic characteristics of patients, circumstances of occurrence and types of case. This report will be useful for injury prevention and control initiatives, as well as forming a basis for more specific investigations.
