Chapter 3 76 Hospitalisation rates Table 2 shows hospitalisation DSR per 100,000 population by city district and migration background. Hospitalisation DSR were almost two-fold higher among individuals living in peripheral city districts compared to central districts (RR=1.86, 95%CI=1.74-1.97), with 80 additional hospitalisations per 100,000 population (RD=80, 95%CI=64-96). Supplementary Table S3 provides further details per individual city district. We observed a 4.5-fold higher hospitalisation DSR in individuals with a non-European migration background compared to ethnic-Dutch individuals (RR 4.51, 95%CI=4.37-4.65), with 213 additional hospitalisations per 100,000 population (RD 213, 95%CI=190-235 per 100,000 population). Individuals with a European migration background also had a higher DSR compared to individuals without a migration background (RR 1.36 95%CI=1.14-1.58). When comparing specific non-European migrant groups to the ethnic-Dutch population, the highest hospitalisation RR were among individuals of Moroccan (RR 6.64, 95%CI=6.46-6.81; RD=341, 95%CI=287395 per 100,000 population) and Turkish (RR 5.93, 95%CI=5.7-6.16; RD=299, 95%CI=228369 per 100,000 population) migration background (Supplementary Table S4).
