  Objectives Describe patient transfer patterns within a large Norwegian hospital. Identify risk factors associated with a high number of transfers. Develop methods to monitor intrahospital patient flows to support capacity management and infection control. Design Retrospective observational study of linked clinical data from electronic health records. Setting Tertiary care university hospital in the Greater Oslo Region, Norway. Participants All adult (≥18 years old) admissions to the gastroenterology, gastrointestinal surgery, neurology and orthopaedics departments at Akershus University Hospital, June 2018 to May 2019. Methods Network analysis and graph theory. Poisson regression analysis. Outcome measures Primary outcome was network characteristics at the departmental level. We describe location-to-location transfers using unweighted, undirected networks for a full-year study period. Weekly networks reveal changes in network size, density and key categories of transfers over time. Secondary outcome was transfer trajectories at the individual patient level. We describe the distribution of transfer trajectories in the cohort and associate number of transfers with patient clinical characteristics. Results The cohort comprised 17 198 hospital stays. Network analysis demonstrated marked heterogeneity across departments and throughout the year. The orthopaedics department had the largest transfer network size and density and greatest temporal variation. More transfers occurred during weekdays than weekends. Summer holiday affected transfers of different types (Emergency department-Any location/Bed ward-Bed ward/To-From Technical wards) differently. Over 75% of transferred patients followed one of 20 common intrahospital trajectories, involving one to three transfers. Higher number of intrahospital transfers was associated with emergency admission (transfer rate ratio (RR)=1.827), non-prophylactic antibiotics (RR=1.108), surgical procedure (RR=2.939) and stay in intensive care unit or high-dependency unit (RR=2.098). Additionally, gastrosurgical (RR=1.211), orthopaedic (RR=1.295) and neurological (RR=1.114) patients had higher risk of many transfers than gastroenterology patients (all effects: p<0.001). Conclusions Network and transfer chain analysis applied on patient location data revealed logistic and clinical associations highly relevant for hospital capacity management and infection control.

  Whereas peripheral chemoreceptor oxygen sensitivity increases markedly after birth, previous studies of ventilatory responses to CO(2) in term infants have shown no postnatal development. However, the hypercapnic challenges applied have usually been long-term, which meant that the effect of central chemoreceptors dominated. Oscillatory breathing, apneas, and sighs cause transient Pco(2) changes, probably primarily stimulating peripheral chemoreceptors. We wanted to assess whether the immediate ventilatory responses to step changes in inspired CO(2) and O(2) in term infants undergo postnatal developmental changes. Twenty-six healthy term infants were studied during natural sleep 2 d and 8 wk postnatally. Ventilatory responses to a randomized sequence of 15 s hypercapnia (3% CO(2)), hypoxia (15% O(2)), and hypercapnic hypoxia (3% CO(2) + 15% O(2)) were recorded breath-by-breath using a pneumotachometer. Response rate, stimulus-response time, and response magnitude were analyzed with ANOVA after coherent averaging. Response rate increased with age by 30% (hypercapnia), 318% (hypoxia), and 302% (hypercapnic hypoxia). Response rate during hypercapnic hypoxia exceeded rate during hypercapnia plus rate during hypoxia in wk 8, but not on d 2. Time to half-maximum response decreased by 3.4 s with age for the two hypercapnic stimuli but was unchanged for hypoxia. Response magnitude was unchanged for hypercapnia, but increased for the two hypoxic stimuli. In conclusion, an interaction between the effects of hypercapnia and hypoxia on ventilatory response rate emerged between postnatal d 2 and wk 8 in term infants. Concomitantly, stimulus-response time to hypercapnic stimuli declined markedly. The development of a prompt response to transient hypercapnia may be important for infant respiratory stability

• Holme, Nathalie Linn Anikken; Skytioti, Maria; Søvik, Signe & Elstad, Maja (2020). Induced respiratory variability in arterial blood pressure lowers cerebral blood flow in healthy humans. Vis sammendrag

  In this study we examined the effect of respiratory oscillations in arterial blood pressure and cardiac output, induced by oscillatory lower body negative pressure, on cerebral blood flow in healthy humans. We found that respiratory oscillations in arterial blood pressure and cardiac output lowered the median cerebral blood flow. In addition, as oscillations in cerebral blood flow increased during oscillatory lower body negative pressure, we conclude that respiratory oscillations in arterial blood pressure and cardiac output are transferred to the cerebral circulation. Induced respiratory oscillations in arterial blood pressure and in flow therefore lower cerebral blood flow in healthy humans.
