Abstract Background Ocular gonorrhea infections (OGI) have been rarely reported in United States adults. Unlike other bacterial eye infections which may be treated with topical antibiotics, OGI is typically characterized by purulent conjunctivitis with profuse exudate and requires treatment with systemic antibiotics. Genital gonorrhea infections are increasing nationally and in New York City (NYC). New York State mandates prophylactic antibiotic treatment of newborns to prevent purulent conjunctivitis. We describe the number and characteristics of OGI case-patients diagnosed among NYC residents over a 12-year period. Methods We examined data from two different sources: (1) the NYC Health Department sexually transmitted infections (STI) surveillance registry (January 2006-October 2017) in which OGI cases were defined as laboratory-confirmed infection of the eye or eye appendages; and (2) a hospital discharge database (inpatient and emergency room) for NYC residents admitted to any New York State hospital (inpatient or emergency room discharges, January 2006–December 2016) in which cases of OGI were identified using diagnostic codes corresponding to OGI. We characterized de-duplicated OGI cases identified across these data sources for 2006–2017 and calculated the OGI rate/100,000 reported gonorrhea cases. Results Thirty-six OGI cases were identified in STI surveillance data and 55 additional cases in the hospital discharge database. Out of the total of 91 OGI cases, 20 (22%) were ≤1 year (11 males, 9 females), 3 (3.3%) were 2–14 years (all males), and 68 (74.7%) were ≥15 years old. Among the 68 adolescent/adult case-patients, the mean age was 29.04 ± 13.4 years. The majority were males (69.1%, 47/68,) and African American (42.6%, 29/68). The OGI rate in adolescents/adults was 39.95/100,000 gonorrhea cases (females, 35.76; males, 42.31); the rate remained almost constant since 2006 despite the increases in gonorrhea over the past decade. Conjunctivitis was the most common presentation (90.1% of all cases; 82/91), followed by eye appendage infections (2.2%; 2/91). The STI surveillance data revealed the diagnosis of OGI was made mainly by ocular culture (86.1%; 31/36), followed by nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) (8.3%), or both culture and NAAT (5.6%). Conclusion OGI appear to be a rare disease in NYC. The majority of infections occurred among adolescents and adults, likely due to mandated newborn prophylaxis.

Introduction: Historically, 2 methods have been used to determine the incidence of Kawasaki disease (KD): active or passive surveillance, or the use of administrative databases. Given the increasing regulatory requirements, mainly around patient privacy, periodic retrospective surveillances have become increasingly challenging. Administrative databases are not curated datasets and doubts have been cast on their accuracy. Methods: The Hospital for Sick Children has been conducting retrospective triennial surveillances of KD since 1995 by contacting all hospitals in Ontario and manually reviewing all cases through chart review, reconciling inter-hospital transfers and multiple readmissions. We queried the Canadian hospital discharge database (Canadian Institute for Health Information) for hospitalizations associated with a diagnosis of KD between 2004-9. The administrative dataset was manually reviewed; patient national health number, institution and dates of admission/discharge were used to identify inter-hospital transfers, readmission and follow-up episodes. Results: The Canadian hospital discharge database reported 1,685 admissions during the study period (281±44 per year) for Ontario. Manual review of the dataset identified 219 (13%) as inter-hospital transfers (56, 26%), readmissions (122, 56%), admissions for follow-up of coronary artery aneurysms (14, 6%) or hospital admissions not related to KD (27, 12%). When these admissions were removed, the total number of incident cases for the study period was 1,466 (244±45 per year). The retrospective triennial surveillance identified 1,373 KD cases during the same period (229±33 per year). The Canadian hospital discharge database overestimated the number of cases in all 6 years by an average of 6.7±5.9%. The overestimation likely comes from patients who were originally diagnosed with KD but in whom the diagnosis of KD was subsequently excluded (historically ~5-6%). Conclusions: Reliance on administrative data to determine incidence of KD is possible and accurate; data should be manually reviewed to remove non-incident cases and estimates should be adjusted to reflect the expected proportion of patients in whom the diagnosis of KD will be subsequently excluded.

Background and aim. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), although largely preventable, is a great health burden in all the countries worldwide. Statistics of morbidity and mortality of COPD show the need for correct management of the disease. Chronic Obstructive Respiratory Diseases (DRG 88) are in 9th place for discharge in in-patient hospital admission. It is necessary to establish specific indicators which are efficacious and relevant for the patient, the doctor and the health manager. This study will analyse the information in respect of hospital admissions (Hospital discharge database) in Puglia for the period 2000-2005. Methods. The analysis was carried out utilising the Puglia Region hospital patient discharge database, selecting those patients with admission for chronic respiratory disease as principal or secondary diagnosis. Results. Chronic respiratory diseases are more frequent in males and in people over 45 years old with frequency increasing with age. Geographical distribution shows that there are greater rates of hospitalisation in big cities and in the neighbourhood of industrial areas. Although the trend over time is slight. A higher percentage of re-admission has been found for patients with COPD, and the interval between the two admissions occurs within one or two months; the diagnosis at the second admission is the same as for the first. 10.6% of discharge forms report one diagnosis, especially in patients older than 65 years of age. Little could be said about diagnostic procedures because these are not reported on the discharge form. Conclusion. Hospitalisation data confirms expectations regarding age and sex of patients. The high hospitalisation rates indicate that in-patients care still remains the only viable treatment for COPD and other chronic respiratory diseases. The high number of exacerbations reflect the absence of out-patients service or community care, and the same diagnosis in more than one episode shows the lack of efficiency of health services and disease management. This data is necessary to understand disease distribution and the modification of disease management in order to reduce health care costs, to increase efficacy in disease control and to limit repeated exacerbation and so to obtain the maximum benefit for the patients.
