About prevalence and incidence statistics:

The term 'prevalence' of Postoperative hip fracture usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Postoperative hip fracture at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Postoperative hip fracture refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Postoperative hip fracture diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
