A cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate older patients' utilisation of emergency department resources.Patients aged >65 years, compared with adults <65 years, were more likely to be triaged to higher clinical urgency categories. They have a higher hospital admission rate and longer length-of-stay even after adjusting for triage category.Patients >80 years, compared with 65-79 years, were more likely to be triaged to higher urgency categories. These groups had similar hospital admission rates and lengths-of-stay. Patients �65 years presented in similar numbers during office-hours and after-hours, but after-hours attendances were more likely to be triaged to higher urgency categories. The greater emergency department resource utilisation by older people has implications for the provision of health services in an aging population.

Nathues C, Janssen E, Duengelhoef A et al. Cross-sectional study on risk factors for Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus sow herd instability in German breeding herds. Acta Vet Scand 2018; 60 (1): 1–8 In mit PRRSV (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrom Virus) infizierten Schweinebeständen zeigen die Tiere oftmals ernsthafte klinische Symptome. Die Schwere der Symptomatik hängt von der Virulenz der jeweiligen Virusstämme ab. Deshalb ist die Impfung gegen diesen Erreger sinnvoll und wird empfohlen, auch wenn sie nicht immer klinische Fälle verhindert bzw. das Virus vollends eliminiert. Aufgrund dessen rückt die Prävention durch Verbesserung der innerbetrieblichen Abläufe zunehmend in den Fokus. Um solche Maßnahmen erfolgreich etablieren zu können, ist es wichtig, den epidemiologischen Status der Herde und mögliche Risikofaktoren zu kennen. Ziel der Studie war deshalb, die Prävalenz der Infektion in Sauenbetrieben in Norddeutschland zu eruieren und verschiedene Arbeitsabläufe hinsichtlich des Risikos der Erregerverbreitung zu untersuchen.
