This statistic displays the total number of hospital stays in the United States with an operating room procedure performed in 2012, by patient age group. During this time, there were 290,600 total stays with an operating procedure performed among patients between 1 and 17 years of age. Approximately two-thirds of hospitalizations include some form of procedure, although many, like blood transfusions or vaccinations, can be done outside of operating rooms. Costs for hospitalizations with operating room procedures are often much more costly than those without.
