Introduction: Neurological conditions are a major and increasing cause of hospitalisation among children and young people, but little is known about the impact of neurological conditions on hospital services in England, nor the factors that influence length of stay and bed days per year.

Objectives: To quantify the hospital usage in children and young people related to neurological conditions, trends over time and variation by ethnicity and deprivation status.

Methods: An ICD10 coding framework identified a cohort of individuals aged 0-19 years with neurological conditions from linked routinely collected healthcare data from England (The Hospital Episode Statistics Admitted Patient Care dataset), from 1 April 2003 to 31 March 2015.
