Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Sprachtherapeutisch-linguistische Fachkreise empfehlen die Anpassung einer von einem internationalen Konsortium empfohlenen Änderung der Nomenklatur für Sprachstörungen im Kindesalter, insbesondere für Sprachentwicklungsstörungen (SES), auch für den deutschsprachigen Raum. Fragestellung Ist eine solche Änderung in der Terminologie aus ärztlicher und psychologischer Sicht sinnvoll? Material und Methode Kritische Abwägung der Argumente für und gegen eine Nomenklaturänderung aus medizinischer und psychologischer Sicht eines Fachgesellschaften- und Leitliniengremiums. Ergebnisse Die ICD-10-GM (Internationale statistische Klassifikation der Krankheiten und verwandter Gesundheitsprobleme, 10. Revision, German Modification) und eine S2k-Leitlinie unterteilen SES in umschriebene SES (USES) und SES assoziiert mit anderen Erkrankungen (Komorbiditäten). Die USES- wie auch die künftige SES-Definition der ICD-11 (International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision) fordern den Ausschluss von Sinnesbehinderungen, neurologischen Erkrankungen und einer bedeutsamen intellektuellen Einschränkung. Diese Definition erscheint weit genug, um leichtere nonverbale Einschränkungen einzuschließen, birgt nicht die Gefahr, Kindern Sprach- und weitere Therapien vorzuenthalten und erkennt das ICD(International Classification of Disease)-Kriterium, nach dem der Sprachentwicklungsstand eines Kindes bedeutsam unter der Altersnorm und unterhalb des seinem Intelligenzalter angemessenen Niveaus liegen soll, an. Die intendierte Ersetzung des Komorbiditäten-Begriffs durch verursachende Faktoren, Risikofaktoren und Begleiterscheinungen könnte die Unterlassung einer dezidierten medizinischen Differenzialdiagnostik bedeuten. Schlussfolgerungen Die vorgeschlagene Terminologie birgt die Gefahr, ätiologisch bedeutsame Klassifikationen und differenzialdiagnostische Grenzen zu verwischen und auf wertvolles ärztliches und psychologisches Fachwissen in Diagnostik und Therapie sprachlicher Störungen im Kindesalter zu verzichten.

Objective: Routinely collected health administrative data can be used to efficiently assess disease burden in large populations, but it is important to evaluate the validity of these data. The objective of this study was to develop and validate International Classification of Disease 10PthP revision (ICD -10) algorithms that identify laboratory-confirmed influenza or laboratory-confirmed respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) hospitalizations using population-based health administrative data from Ontario, Canada. Study Design and Setting: Influenza and RSV laboratory data from the 2014-15 through to 2017-18 respiratory virus seasons were obtained from the Ontario Laboratories Information System (OLIS) and were linked to hospital discharge abstract data to generate influenza and RSV reference cohorts. These reference cohorts were used to assess the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of the ICD-10 algorithms. To minimize misclassification in future studies, we prioritized specificity and PPV in selecting top-performing algorithms. Results: 83,638 and 61,117 hospitalized patients were included in the influenza and RSV reference cohorts, respectively. The best influenza algorithm had a sensitivity of 73% (95% CI 72% to 74%), specificity of 99% (95% CI 99% to 99%), PPV of 94% (95% CI 94% to 95%), and NPV of 94% (95% CI 94% to 95%). The best RSV algorithm had a sensitivity of 69% (95% CI 68% to 70%), specificity of 99% (95% CI 99% to 99%), PPV of 91% (95% CI 90% to 91%) and NPV of 97% (95% CI 97% to 97%). Conclusion: We identified two highly specific algorithms that best ascertain patients hospitalized with influenza or RSV. These algorithms may be applied to hospitalized patients if data on laboratory tests are not available, and will thereby improve the power of future epidemiologic studies of influenza, RSV, and potentially other severe acute respiratory infections.

Background: The Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy vs. Stenting Trial (CREST) showed greater safety of carotid artery stenting (CAS) in patients (pts) <70 yo and endarterectomy (CEA) in >70 yo. The aim of this study was to evaluate national patterns in CAS performance in pts >70yo in the pre- (2007-2010) and post-CREST (2011-2013) era. Methods: Adults requiring CAS or CEA were identified from the 2007-2013 Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) using International Classification of Disease (ICD-9) codes. We estimated the proportion of CAS performed in all age groups and used multivariate models adjusted for clinical and hospital factors to compare odds of receiving CAS in the pre- to post-CREST era. Results: We identified 839,357 weighted cases of CAS and CEA from the NIS. 15.7% of CAS and 8.4% of CEA were performed in symptomatic pts. CAS increased in all age groups over time (figure 1). Proportion of >70yo receiving CAS increased from 11.9% in the pre- to 13.9% in the post-CREST era (p=0.004). In multivariate models, odds of receiving CAS as opposed to CEA increased by 15% in all pts >70yo in the post-CREST compared to the pre-CREST period (OR 1.15, 95%CI 1.10-1.19, p<0.001) including asymptomatic women (OR 1.10, 1.03-1.18). Congestive heart failure (OR 1.50, 95%CI 1.41-1.60), peripheral vascular disease (OR 1.41, 95%CI 1.34-1.48) and hospitalization in the Western region as opposed to the Northeast (OR 1.25, 95%CI 1.16-1.34) were associated with higher odds of CAS in pts>70yo, while female sex (OR 0.92, 95%CI =0.89-0.97), smoking (OR 0.84, 95%CI 0.79-0.90) and weekend admission (OR 0.78, 95%CI 0.70-0.86) were negatively associated with odds of CAS. Conclusion: Rates of CAS increased in the post- compared to pre-CREST era in pts >70yo including asymptomatic women. Despite the concerns of higher periprocedural complications with CAS in elderly pts, the results of CREST have not influenced clinical revascularization practice in pts >70yo.

Background: End stage renal disease (ESRD) is a well-recognized risk factor for development of sudden cardiac arrest(SCA). There is limited data on outcomes after an in-hospital SCA event in ESRD patients. Methods: Data were obtained from National Inpatient Sample from January 2007 to December 2017. In-hospital SCA was identified using International Classification of Disease, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification, and International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification codes of 99.60, 99.63, and 5A12012. ESRD patients were subsequently identified using codes of 585.6 and N18.6. Propensity -matched analysis using logistic regression with SD caliper of 0.2 was used to match patients with and without ESRD. Crude and propensity-matched (PS) cohorts outcomes were calculated. Results: A total of 1,412,985 patients sustained in-hospital SCA during our study period. ESRD patients with in-hospital SCA were younger and had a higher burden of key co-morbidities. Mortality was similar in ESRD and non-ESRD patients in PS matched cohort (70.4% vs. 70.7%, p = 0.45, figure 1) with an overall downward trend over our study years (figure 2). Conclusion: In the context of in-hospital SCA, mortality is similar in ESRD and non-ESRD patients in adjusted analysis. Adequate risk factor modification could further mitigate the risk of in-hospital SCA among ESRD patients
