Abstract
High concentrations of oxygen are often needed to optimize oxygenation in infants with persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN), but this can also increase the risk of hyperoxemia. We determined the occurrence of hyperoxemia in infants treated for PPHN. Medical records of infants ≥ 34 + 0 weeks gestational age (GA) who received inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) were retrospectively reviewed for oxygenation parameters during iNO therapy. Oxygen was manually titrated to target arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) 10-13 kPa and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) 92-98%. The main study outcomes were the incidence and duration of hyperoxemia and hypoxemia and the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2). A total of 181 infants were included. The median FiO2 was 0.43 (IQR 0.34-0.56) and the maximum FiO2 was 1.0 in 156/181 (86%) infants, resulting in at least one PaO2 > 13 kPa in 149/181 (82%) infants, of which 46/149 (31%) infants had minimal one PaO2 > 30 kPa. SpO2 was > 98% in 179/181 (99%) infants for 17.7% (8.2-35.6%) of the iNO time. PaO2 < 10 kPa occurred in 160/181 (88%) infants, of which 81/160 (51%) infants had minimal one PaO2 < 6.7 kPa. SpO2 was < 92% in 169/181 (93%) infants for 1.6% (0.5-4.3%) of the iNO time. Conclusion: While treatment of PPHN is focused on preventing and reversing hypoxemia, hyperoxemia occurs inadvertently in most patients. What is Known: • High concentrations of oxygen are often needed to prevent hypoxemia-induced deterioration of PPHN, but this can also increase the risk of hyperoxemia. • Infants with persistent pulmonary hypertension may be particularly vulnerable to the toxic effects of oxygen, and hyperoxemia could further induce pulmonary vasoconstriction, potentially worsening the condition. What is New: • Hyperoxemia occurs in the majority of infants with PPHN during treatment with iNO. • Infants with PPHN spent a considerably longer period with saturations above the target range compared to saturations below the target range.

Abstract
Most very premature infants breathe at birth but require respiratory support in order to stimulate and support their breathing. A significant proportion of premature infants are affected by chorioamnionitis, defined as an umbrella term for antenatal inflammation of the foetal membranes and umbilical vessels. Chorioamnionitis produces inflammatory mediators that potentially depress the respiratory drive generated in the brainstem. Such respiratory depression could maintain itself by delaying lung aeration, hampering respiratory support at birth and putting infants at risk of hypoxic injury. This inflammatory-mediated respiratory depression may contribute to an association between chorioamnionitis and increased requirement of neonatal resuscitation in premature infants at birth. This narrative review summarises mechanisms on how respiratory drive and spontaneous breathing could be influenced by chorioamnionitis and provides possible interventions to stimulate spontaneous breathing. Conclusion: Chorioamnionitis could possibly depress respiratory drive and spontaneous breathing in premature infants at birth. Interventions to stimulate spontaneous breathing could therefore be valuable. What is Known: • A large proportion of premature infants are affected by chorioamnionitis, antenatal inflammation of the foetal membranes and umbilical vessels. What is New: • Premature infants affected by chorioamnionitis might be exposed to higher concentrations of respiratory drive inhibitors which could depress breathing at birth. • Premature infants affected by chorioamnionitis seem to be associated with a higher and more extensive requirement of resuscitation at birth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Manual tactile stimulation is used to counteract apnea in preterm infants, but it is unknown when this intervention should be applied. We compared an anticipatory to a reactive approach using vibrotactile stimulation to prevent hypoxia induced apneas. METHODS Preterm rabbit kittens were prematurely delivered and randomized to either group. All kittens breathed spontaneously with a positive airway pressure of 8 cmH2O while they were imaged using phase contrast X-ray. Irregular breathing (IB) was induced using gradual hypoxia. The anticipatory group received stimulation at the onset of IB and the reactive group if IB transitioned into apnea. Breathing rate (BR), heart rate (HR) and functional residual capacity (FRC) were compared. RESULTS Anticipatory stimulation significantly reduced apnea incidence and maximum inter-breath intervals and increased BR following IB, compared to reactive stimulation. Recovery in BR but not HR was more likely with anticipatory stimulation, although both BR and HR were significantly higher at 120 s after stimulation onset. FRC values and variability were not different. CONCLUSIONS Anticipated vibrotactile stimulation is more effective in preventing apnea and enhancing breathing when compared to reactive stimulation in preterm rabbits. Stimulation timing is likely to be a key factor in reducing the incidence and duration of apnea. IMPACT Anticipated vibrotactile stimulation can prevent apnea and stimulate breathing effort in preterm rabbits. Anticipated vibrotactile stimulation increases the likelihood of breathing rate recovery following hypoxia induced irregular breathing, when compared to reactive stimulation. Automated stimulation in combination with predictive algorithms may improve the treatment of apnea in preterm infants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effect of peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) target range (TR) (either 91%-95% and 92%-96%) on the frequency and duration of hypoxic and hyperoxic episodes while on automated oxygen control using the OxyGenie controller. DESIGN Randomised cross-over study. SETTING Tertiary-level neonatal unit in the Netherlands. PATIENTS Infants (n=27) with a median (IQR) gestational age of 27+0 (25+5-27+3) weeks and postnatal age of 16 (10-22) days, receiving invasive or non-invasive respiratory support. INTERVENTIONS In both groups supplemental oxygen was titrated to a TR of 91%-95% (TRlow) or 92%-96% (TRhigh) by the OxyGenie controller (SLE6000 ventilator) for 24 hours each, in random sequence. After a switch in TR, a 1-hour washout period was applied to prevent carry-over bias. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Frequency and duration of hypoxic (SpO2<80% for ≥1 s) and hyperoxic episodes (SpO2>98% for ≥1 s). RESULTS Hypoxic episodes were less frequent when the higher range was targeted (TRhigh vs TRlow: 2.5 (0.7-6.2)/hour vs 2.4 (0.9-10.2)/hour, p=0.02), but hyperoxic episodes were more frequent (5.3 (1.8-12.3)/hour vs 2.9 (1.0-7.1)/hour, p<0.001). The duration of the out-of-range episodes was not significantly different (hypoxia: 4.7 (2.8-7.1) s vs 4.4 (3.7-6.5) s, p=0.67; hyperoxia: 4.3 (3.3-4.9) s vs 3.9 (2.8-5.5) s, p=0.89). CONCLUSION Targeting a higher SpO2 TR with the OxyGenie controller reduced hypoxic episodes but increased hyperoxic episodes. This study highlights the feasibility of using an automated oxygen titration device to explore the effects of subtle TR adjustments on clinical outcomes in neonatal care.

Abstract
AIM Studies in animals have shown that vocal cords (VCs) close during apnoea before and after birth, thereby impairing the effect of non-invasive ventilation. We tested the feasibility of visualising VCs using ultrasonography (US) and investigated the position and movement of the VCs during non-invasive respiratory support of preterm infants at birth. METHODS In an observational study, VCs were visualised using US in infants <30 weeks gestation during both stabilisation after birth and at one hour after birth. Respiratory efforts were simultaneously recorded. The percentage of time the VCs were closed in the first ten minutes was determined from videoframes acquired at 15 Hz and compared with respiratory flow patterns measured using a respiratory function monitor. RESULTS US of the VCs could be performed in 20/20 infants included (median (IQR) gestational age 27+6 (27+1-28+6) weeks) without interfering with stabilisation, of whom 60% (12/20) were initially breathing and 40% (8/20) were apnoeic at birth. In breathing infants, the VCs closed between breaths and during breath holds, which accounted for 57% (49-66) of the time. In apnoeic infants receiving positive pressure ventilation, the VCs were closed for 93% (81-99) of the time. US at one hour after birth could be performed in 14/20 infants, VCs were closed between breaths and during breath holds, accounting for 46% (27-52) of the time. CONCLUSION Visualising VCs in preterm infants at birth using US is feasible. The VCs were closed during apnoea, in between breaths and during breath holds, impairing the effect of ventilation given.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During stabilisation of preterm infants at birth, a face mask is used to provide respiratory support. However, application of these masks may activate cutaneous stretch receptors of the trigeminal nerve, causing apnoea and bradycardia. This study investigated the amount of force exerted on the face mask during non-invasive ventilation of preterm infants at birth and whether the amount of exerted force is associated with apnoea and bradycardia. METHODS A prospective observational study was performed in preterm infants born <32 weeks of gestation who were stabilised at birth. During the first 10 minutes of respiratory support, we measured breathing and heart rate as well as the amount of force exerted on a face mask using a custom-made pressure sensor placed on top of the face mask. RESULTS Thirty infants were included (median (IQR) gestational age(GA) 28+3 (27+0-30+0) weeks, birthweight 1104 (878-1275) grams). The median exerted force measured was 297 (198-377) grams, ranging from 0 to 1455 grams. Significantly more force was exerted on the face mask during positive pressure ventilation when compared to CPAP (410 (256-556) vs 286 (190-373) grams, p = 0.009). In a binary logistic regression model, higher forces were associated with an increased risk of apnoea (OR = 1.607 (1.556-1.661), p < 0.001) and bradycardia (OR = 1.140 (1.102-1.180), p < 0.001) during the first 10 minutes of respiratory support at birth. CONCLUSION During mask ventilation, the median exerted force on a face mask was 297 grams with a maximum of 1455 grams. Higher exerted forces were associated apnoea and bradycardia during the first 10 minutes of respiratory support at birth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Application of a face mask may provoke the trigeminocardiac reflex, leading to apnoea and bradycardia. This study investigates whether re-application of a face mask in preterm infants at birth alters the risk of apnoea compared with the initial application, and identify factors that influence this risk. METHODS Resuscitation videos and respiratory function monitor data collected from preterm infants <30 weeks gestation between 2018 and 2020 were reviewed. Breathing and heart rate before and after the initial and subsequent mask applications were analysed. RESULTS In total, 111 infants were included with 404 mask applications (102 initial and 302 subsequent mask applications). In 254/404 (63%) applications, infants were breathing prior to mask application, followed by apnoea after 67/254 (26%) mask applications. Apnoea and bradycardia occurred significantly more often after the initial mask application compared with subsequent applications (apnoea initial: 32/67 (48%) and subsequent: 44/187 (24%), p<0.001; bradycardia initial: 61% and subsequent 21%, p<0.001). Apnoea was followed by bradycardia in 73% and 71% of the initial and subsequent mask applications, respectively (p=0.607).In a logistic regression model, a lower breathing rate (OR 0.908 (95% CI 0.847 to 0.974), p=0.007) and heart rate (OR 0.935 (95% CI 0.901 to 0.970), p<0.001) prior to mask application were associated with an increased likelihood of becoming apnoeic following subsequent mask applications. CONCLUSION In preterm infants at birth, apnoea and bradycardia occurs more often after an initial mask application than subsequent applications, with lower heart and breathing rates increasing the risk of apnoea in subsequent applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study was set up to investigate if and to what extent non-pharmacological analgesia is able to provide comfort to very preterm infants (VPI) during less invasive surfactant administration (LISA). METHODS This was a prospective non-randomized multicenter observational study performed in level IV NICUs. Inborn VPI with a gestational age between 220/7 and 316/7 weeks, signs of respiratory distress syndrome, and the need for surfactant replacement were included. Non-pharmacological analgesia was performed in all infants during LISA. In case of failure of the first LISA attempt, additional analgosedation could be administered. COMFORTneo scores during LISA were assessed. RESULTS 113 VPI with a mean gestational age of 27 weeks (+/- 2.3 weeks) and mean birth weight of 946 g (+/- 33 g) were included. LISA was successful at the first laryngoscopy attempt in 81%. COMFORTneo scores were highest during laryngoscopy. At this time point, non-pharmacological analgesia provided adequate comfort in 61% of the infants. 74.4% of lower gestational aged infants (i.e., 220-266 weeks) were within the comfort zone during laryngoscopy compared to 51.6% of higher gestational aged infants (i.e., 270-320 weeks) (p = 0.016). The time point of surfactant administration did not influence the COMFORTneo scores during the LISA procedure. CONCLUSION Non-pharmacological analgesia provided comfort in as much as 61% of the included VPI during LISA. Further research is needed to both develop strategies to identify infants who, despite receiving non-pharmacological analgesia, are at high risk for experiencing discomfort during LISA and define patient-tailored dosage and choice of analgosedative drugs.

Abstract
Despite increased amounts of research, most of the evidence that supports treatment of newborns in the delivery room is rated 'low' rather than 'high' quality. This assessment stems largely from a lack of evidence from clinical trials. When trials have been performed, the evidence has often been downgraded due to enrolment of small or poorly representative samples, and for lack of blinding of caregivers and outcome assessors. Delivery room trials present particular challenges when obtaining consent, enrolling participants, taking measures to limit bias and identifying appropriate outcome measures. We hope our suggestions as to how future delivery room trials could be more pragmatic will inform the design of large studies that are necessary to allow clinical practice to evolve.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effect of two different automated oxygen control devices on time preterm infants spent in different oxygen saturation (SpO2) ranges during their entire stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). DESIGN Retrospective cohort study of prospectively collected data. SETTING Tertiary level neonatal unit in the Netherlands. PATIENTS Preterm infants (OxyGenie 75 infants, CLiO2 111 infants) born at 24-29 weeks' gestation receiving at least 72 hours of respiratory support between October 2015 and November 2020. INTERVENTIONS Inspired oxygen concentration was titrated by the OxyGenie controller (SLE6000 ventilator) between February 2019 and November 2020 and the CLiO2 controller (AVEA ventilator) between October 2015 and December 2018 as standard of care. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Time spent within SpO2 target range (TR, 91-95% for either epoch) and other SpO2 ranges. RESULTS Time spent within the SpO2 TR when receiving supplemental oxygen was higher during OxyGenie control (median 71.5 [IQR 64.6-77.0]% vs 51.3 [47.3-58.5]%, p<0.001). Infants under OxyGenie control spent less time in hypoxic and hyperoxic ranges (SpO2<80%: 0.7 [0.4-1.4]% vs 1.2 [0.7-2.3]%, p<0.001; SpO2>98%: 1.0 [0.5-2.4]% vs 4.0 [2.0-7.9]%, p<0.001). Both groups received a similar FiO2 (29.5 [28.0-33.2]% vs 29.6 [27.7-32.1]%, p=not significant). CONCLUSIONS Oxygen saturation targeting was significantly different in the OxyGenie epoch in preterm infants, with less time in hypoxic and hyperoxic SpO2 ranges during their stay in the NICU.

Abstract
A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed to investigate the health benefits of probiotic bacteria in infants when delivered in a follow-on infant formula. The study was conducted in Fuyang (Anhui Province, China) during winter and enrolled 192 healthy infants aged six to 12 months. Infants received one of three follow-on formulae daily for 12 weeks: supplemented with 106 cfu/g Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (n=64); 106 cfu/g Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus HN001 (n=64); or without added probiotics (n=64). The primary endpoint was physician-confirmed bacterial or viral infections during the treatment period. Secondary endpoints included parentally reported (confirmed and unconfirmed) infections; antiviral or antibiotic treatments, and hospitalisation; stool frequency and consistency; infant growth; infant temperament; and adverse events. There were 8 cases of confirmed infection, all upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs). Confirmed URTIs were observed in 9.4% of the control group, compared to 3.1% in the HN001 group (P=0.273), and 0.0% in the HN019 group (P=0.028). A similar trend was observed for parentally reported URTIs, with 25.0% in the control group, compared with 14.1% in the HN001 group (P=0.119) and 9.4% in the HN019 group (P=0.019). No infants in the HN019 group were prescribed antibiotics or antivirals, compared with 3 (4.7%) in the HN001 group and 7 (10.9%) in the control group. No infants required hospitalisation. The probiotic-containing formulae were well-tolerated: there were no cases of diarrhoea or differences in stool frequency or characteristics, no differences in infant growth or temperament, and no treatment-related adverse events. This study directly compared the benefits of two different probiotics when added to follow-on infant formula at 106 cfu/g and consumed over a 12-week period. While HN001 showed trends toward reduced infections, HN019 showed better performance in terms of significantly reduced incidence of both physician-confirmed and parentally reported URTIs, and antibiotic/antiviral use compared to a control in Chinese infants. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01724203).

Abstract
Background We have developed a model of stratified exercise therapy that distinguishes three knee osteoarthritis (OA) subgroups (‘high muscle strength subgroup’, ‘low muscle strength subgroup’, ‘obesity subgroup’), which are provided subgroup-specific exercise therapy (supplemented by a dietary intervention for the ‘obesity subgroup’). In a large clinical trial, this intervention was found to be no more effective than usual exercise therapy. The present qualitative study aimed to explore experiences from users of this intervention, in order to identify possible improvements. Methods Qualitative research design embedded within a cluster randomized controlled trial in a primary care setting. A random sample from the experimental arm (i.e., 15 patients, 11 physiotherapists and 5 dieticians) was interviewed on their experiences with receiving or applying the intervention. Qualitative data from these semi-structured interviews were thematically analysed. Results We identified four themes: one theme regarding the positive experiences with the intervention and three themes regarding perceived barriers. Although users from all 3 perspectives (patients, physiotherapists and dieticians) generally perceived the intervention as having added value, we also identified several barriers, especially for the ‘obesity subgroup’. In this ‘obesity subgroup’, physiotherapists perceived obesity as difficult to address, dieticians reported that more consultations are needed to reach sustainable weight loss and both physiotherapists and dieticians reported a lack of interprofessional collaboration. In the ‘high muscle strength subgroup’, the low number of supervised sessions was perceived as a barrier by some patients and physiotherapists, but as a facilitator by others. A final theme addressed barriers to knee OA treatment in general, with lack of motivation as the most prominent of these. Conclusion Our qualitative study revealed a number of barriers to effective application of the stratified exercise therapy, especially for the ‘obesity subgroup’. Based on these barriers, the intervention and its implementation could possibly be improved. Moreover, these barriers are likely to account at least partly for the lack of superiority over usual exercise therapy.

Abstract
BackgroundThere is strong, high-quality evidence for the effectiveness of exercise therapy in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA).1 However, although effective, the average effect size is only moderate (approximately 0.5).1 This may be attributed to the current ‘one-size-fits-all’ exercise approach, while a stratified approach may yield superior clinical and economic outcomes. We are the first to test a model of stratified exercise therapy in patients in knee OA. This model was based on 3 previously identified subgroups2 that are aligned with well-accepted OA phenotypes3, namely a ‘low muscle strength subgroup’ (‘age-induced phenotype’), ‘high muscle strength subgroup’ (‘post-traumatic phenotype’) and ‘obesity subgroup’ (‘metabolic phenotype’). For each subgroup, a subgroup-specific exercise therapy intervention was developed and pilot-tested4, which was supplemented by a dietary intervention for the ‘obesity subgroup’.ObjectivesThe OCTOPuS-trial aimed to determine the effectiveness of stratified exercise therapy in reducing knee pain and improving physical function, compared to usual, ‘non-stratified’ exercise therapy, in patients with knee OA.MethodsWe conducted a pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial in a primary care setting in 335 people with knee osteoarthritis: 153 in the experimental arm and 182 in the control arm. Physiotherapy practices were randomized into the experimental arm providing the model of stratified exercise therapy supplemented by a dietary intervention from a dietician for the ‘obesity subgroup’ or the control arm proving usual, ‘non-stratified’ exercise therapy. Primary outcomes were knee pain severity (NRS pain, 0-10) and physical function (KOOS subscale daily living, 0-100). Measurements were performed at baseline, and 3- (primary endpoint), 6-, and 12-months follow-up. Intention-to-treat, multilevel, regression analysis was performed.ResultsWe found statistically non-significant differences in knee pain (mean difference (95% confidence interval): 0.19 (-0.31, 0.69)) and physical function (-0.40 (-3.91, 3.12)) at 3-months follow-up, with within-group effect sizes ranging between 0.5 and 0.7. Non-significant differences were also found for all other time points and for nearly all secondary outcome measures. Moreover, effects of experimental and control intervention were similar in each of the 3 subgroup separately.ConclusionThis trial demonstrated no added value with respect to clinical outcomes of our model of stratified exercise therapy compared to usual exercise therapy. This could be attributed to the experimental arm therapists facing difficulty in effectively applying the model (especially in the ‘obesity subgroup’) and to elements of the model possibly being applied in the control arm.References[1]Fransen M et al.

Abstract
In current resuscitation guidelines, tactile stimulation is recommended for infants with insufficient respiratory efforts after birth. No recommendations are made regarding duration, onset, and method of stimulation. Neither is mentioned how tactile stimulation should be applied in relation to the gestational age. The aim was to review the physiological mechanisms of respiratory drive after birth and to identify and structure the current evidence on tactile stimulation during neonatal resuscitation. A systematic review of available data was performed using PubMed, covering the literature up to April 2021. Two independent investigators screened the extracted references and assessed their methodological quality. Six studies were included. Tactile stimulation management, including the onset of stimulation, overall duration, and methods as well as the effect on vital parameters was analyzed and systematically presented. Tactile stimulation varies widely between, as well as within different centers and no consensus exists which stimulation method is most effective. Some evidence shows that repetitive stimulation within the first minutes of resuscitation improves oxygenation. Further studies are warranted to optimize strategies to support spontaneous breathing after birth, assessing the effect of stimulating various body parts respectively within different gestational age groups.

Abstract
Blood oxygen in the fetus is substantially lower than in the newborn infant. In the minutes after birth, arterial oxygen saturation rises from around 50-60% to 90-95%. Initial respiratory efforts generate negative trans-thoracic pressures that drive liquid from the airways into the lung interstitium facilitating lung aeration, blood oxygenation, and pulmonary artery vasodilatation. Consequently, intra- (foramen ovale) and extra-cardiac (ductus arteriosus) shunting changes and the sequential circulation switches to a parallel pulmonary and systemic circulation. Delaying cord clamping preserves blood flow through the ascending vena cava, thus increasing right and left ventricular preload. Recently published reference ranges have suggested that delayed cord clamping positively influenced the fetal-to-neonatal transition. Oxygen saturation in babies with delayed cord clamping plateaus significantly earlier to values of 85-90% than in babies with immediate cord clamping. Delayed cord clamping may also contribute to fewer episodes of brady-or-tachycardia in the first minutes after birth, but data from randomized trials are awaited. IMPACT: Delaying cord clamping during fetal to neonatal transition contributes to a significantly earlier plateauing of oxygen saturation and fewer episodes of brady-and/or-tachycardia in the first minutes after birth. We provide updated information regarding the changes in SpO2 and HR during postnatal adaptation of term and late preterm infants receiving delayed compared with immediate cord clamping. Nomograms in newborn infants with delayed cord clamping will provide valuable reference ranges to establish target SpO2 and HR in the first minutes after birth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Internationally recognized guidelines recommend the judicious use of low oxygen (21-30%), titrated to peripheral oxygen saturation targets, for the initiation of resuscitation of very and extremely preterm infants (<32 weeks' gestation). However, despite more than 10 randomized controlled trials on this question, the ideal initial oxygen concentration for this group of vulnerable infants remains uncertain. AIMS This study aims to assess the effect of various initial oxygen concentrations on (1) all-cause mortality, chronic lung disease, intraventricular hemorrhage, and retinopathy of prematurity; and (2) reaching the prescribed oxygen saturation targets by 5 min after birth, in preterm infants requiring resuscitation. METHODS We will conduct a systematic review and network meta-analysis using individual participant data. Studies of preterm infants <32 weeks' gestation, randomized to initial oxygen concentration, will be included. We will systematically search medical databases and trial registries for eligible studies (published or unpublished). Records will be screened by two independent reviewers, with conflicts resolved by the inclusion of a third reviewer. Identified initial oxygen concentrations will be grouped into the following nodes: low (≤30%), intermediate (60%), and high (≥90%) oxygen. A two-step random-effects contrast-based network meta-regression will be calculated to compare and rank different oxygen concentrations. Analyses will be intention-to-treat, with the primary outcome of all-cause mortality. DISCUSSION This is the first individual participant data network meta-analysis of initial oxygen concentrations for the resuscitation of preterm infants. This novel approach may address long-standing uncertainty regarding optimal oxygen supplementation practice for the resuscitation of preterm infants <32 weeks' gestation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Large amounts of data are collected in neonatal intensive care units, which could be used for research. It is unclear whether these data, usually sampled at a lower frequency, are sufficient for retrospective studies. We investigated what to expect when using one-per-minute data for descriptive statistics. METHODS One-per-second inspiratory oxygen and saturation were processed to one-per-minute data and compared, on average, standard deviation, target range time, hypoxia, days of supplemental oxygen, and missing signal. RESULTS Outcomes calculated from data recordings (one-per-minute = 92, one-per-second = 92) showed very little to no difference. Sub analyses of recordings under 100 and 200 h showed no difference. CONCLUSION In our study, descriptive statistics of one-per-minute data were comparable to one-per-second and could be used for retrospective analyses. Comparable routinely collected one-per-minute data could be used to develop algorithms or find associations, retrospectively.

Abstract
Approximately 53% of near-term newborns admitted to intensive care experience respiratory distress. These newborns are commonly delivered by cesarean section and have elevated airway liquid volumes at birth, which can cause respiratory morbidity. We investigated the effect of providing respiratory support with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 8 cmH2O on lung function in newborn rabbit kittens with elevated airway liquid volumes at birth. Near-term rabbits (30 days; term = 32 days) with airway liquid volumes that corresponded to vaginal delivery (∼7 mL/kg, control, n = 11) or cesarean section [∼37 mL/kg; elevated liquid (EL), n = 11] were mechanically ventilated (tidal volume = 8 mL/kg). The PEEP was changed after lung aeration from 0 to 8 to 0 cmH2O (control, n = 6; EL, n = 6), and in a separate group of kittens, PEEP was changed after lung aeration from 8 to 0 to 8 cmH2O (control, n = 5; EL, n = 5). Lung function (ventilator parameters, compliance, lung gas volumes, and distribution of gas within the lung) was evaluated using plethysmography and synchrotron-based phase-contrast X-ray imaging. EL kittens initially receiving 0 cmH2O PEEP had reduced functional residual capacities and lung compliance, requiring higher inflation pressures to aerate the lung compared with control kittens. Commencing ventilation with 8 cmH2O PEEP mitigated the adverse effects of EL, increasing lung compliance, functional residual capacity, and the uniformity and distribution of lung aeration, but did not normalize aeration of the distal airways. Respiratory support with PEEP supports lung function in near-term newborn rabbits with elevated airway liquid volumes at birth who are at a greater risk of suffering respiratory distress.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Term babies born by cesarean section have elevated airway liquid volumes, which predisposes them to respiratory distress. Treatments targeting molecular mechanisms to clear lung liquid are ineffective for term newborn respiratory distress. We showed that respiratory support with an end-expiratory pressure supports lung function in near-term rabbits with elevated airway liquid volumes at birth. This study provides further physiological understanding of lung function in newborns with elevated airway liquid volumes at risk of respiratory distress.

Abstract
Background:We recently developed a model of stratified exercise therapy [1], consisting of (i) a stratification algorithm allocating patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) into clinically relevant subgroups, and (ii) subgroup-specific exercise therapy. More specifically, in our model we distinguish the following subgroups with proposed underlying phenotypes: ‘high muscle strength subgroup’ representing a post-traumatic phenotype, ‘low muscle strength subgroup’ representing an age-induced phenotype and ‘obesity subgroup’ representing a metabolic phenotype.Objectives:In the present study, we aimed to validate the construct of this algorithm, focusing on 3 research questions: (i) are the proportions of patients in each subgroup similar across cohorts?; (ii) are the characteristics of each of the subgroups in line with their proposed underlying phenotypes?; (iii) are the effects of usual exercise therapy in the 3 subgroups in line with the proposed effect sizes?Methods:Data from five studies (four trials and one cross-sectional cohort) were used to validate the construct of our algorithm by 63 a priori formulated hypotheses regarding the research questions.Results:Baseline data from a total of 1,211 patients with knee OA were analyzed for the first and second research question, and follow-up data from 584 patients who were part of an exercise arm within a trial for the third research question. In total, the vast majority (73%) of the hypotheses were confirmed. Regarding our first research question, we found similar proportions in each of the three subgroups across cohorts, especially for three cohorts. Regarding our second research question, subgroup characteristics were almost completely in line with the proposed underlying phenotypes. Regarding our third research question, unexpectedly, usual exercise therapy resulted in similar, moderate to large effect sizes for knee pain and physical function for all three subgroups.Conclusion:This study suggests that our algorithm might be a valid instrument to allocate patients with knee OA into clinically relevant subgroups, as most of our a priori hypotheses could be confirmed. On the other hand, subgroups did not differ substantially in effects of usual exercise therapy, contrary to our expectation. An ongoing trial [1] will assess whether this algorithm accompanied by subgroup-specific exercise therapy improves clinical and economic outcomes.References:[1]Knoop J, Dekker J, van der Leeden M, de Rooij M, Peter WFH, van Bodegom-Vos L, van Dongen JM, Lopuhäa N, Bennell KL, Lems WF, van der Esch M, Vliet Vlieland TPM, Ostelo RWJG.

Abstract
Background:We have developed a model of stratified exercise therapy, in which three knee osteoarthritis (OA) subgroups (i.e., ‘high muscle strength subgroup’, ‘low muscle strength subgroup’ and ‘obesity subgroup’) can be distinguished and provided a subgroup-specific intervention. Currently, the (cost-)effectiveness of this model compared to usual exercise therapy is tested in a large-scaled randomized controlled trial (OCTOPuS-study [1]). Alongside this trial, we performed a qualitative study to explore perceived barriers and facilitators of the application of this model in primary care.Objectives:To explore barriers and facilitators of the application of this model in primary care, as perceived by patients, physiotherapists and dieticians.Methods:Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews in a random sample of 15 patients (5 from each subgroup), 11 physiotherapists and 5 dieticians, from the experimental arm of the OCTUPuS trial. A thematic analysis of the data was performed.Results:We identified 14 themes in 5 categories. In general, patients and therapists were positive about the added value and applicability of the model, although some physiotherapists would prefer more flexibility. Regarding the ‘high muscle strength subgroup’, both patients and physiotherapists reported mixed feelings on the low number of supervised sessions, with some perceiving this low number as advantageous for stimulating the patient’s own responsibility, whereas others as hindering an optimally guided treatment. Regarding the ‘obesity subgroup’, dieticians and physiotherapists acknowledged the added value of the combined intervention, but both were disappointed by the lack of interdisciplinary collaboration. Moreover, those patients in this subgroup already following a diet restriction, therefore not perceiving any added value of the diet intervention.Conclusion:This qualitative study revealed relevant barriers and facilitators of our new model of stratified exercise therapy, which will help us interpreting the upcoming results on its (cost-) effectiveness [1]. If proven to be (cost-)effective, implementation strategies should specifically focus on guidance of patients from the ‘high muscle strength subgroup’ within only a few sessions, collaboration between physiotherapist and dietician in the ‘obesity subgroup’, and adequate use of booster sessions after the supervised period to optimize treatment adherence.References:[1]Knoop J, Dekker J, van der Leeden M, de Rooij M, Peter WFH, van Bodegom-Vos L, van Dongen JM, Lopuhäa N, Bennell KL, Lems WF, van der Esch M, Vliet Vlieland TPM, Ostelo RWJG.

Abstract
IntroductionThe implementation of Intensive Home Treatment (IHT) aims to decrease the pressure on acute inpatient services that could lead to prevent hospitalization and reduce the number of hospitalization days and, ultimately, reduce cost in the mental health services. Although there are studies assessing the effectiveness of IHT, there is a shortage of research studying the cost-effectiveness.ObjectivesThe aim of this study is to present an cost-utility analysis of IHT compared to care as usual (CAU)MethodsPatients between 18 and 65 years of age whose mental health professionals considered hospitalization were included. These patients were pre-randomized in either IHT or CAU and followed up for 12-months. For this study, the base case analysis was performed from the societal and healthcare perspective. For the cost-utility analyses the Euroqol 5D was used to calculate quality adjusted life years (QALYs) as a generic measure of health gains.ResultsData of 198 patients were used. From a sociatal perspective, the cost-utility analysis resulted in an incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) of €58 730, and a 37% likelihood that IHT leads to higher QALYs at lower costs. The probability of IHT being cost-effective was >50% if there was no willingness to pay more for extra QALY than in the current situation under CAU.ConclusionsProfessionals working in crisis care are able to offer IHT with the same effect as other crisis care interventions at lower costs. IHT seem to be cost-effective compared with CAU over 52 weeks follow-up for patients who experience psychiatric crises.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

Abstract
Aim Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) nurses provide tactile stimulation to terminate apnoea in preterm infants, but guidelines recommending specific methods are lacking. In this study, we evaluated current methods of tactile stimulation performed by NICU nurses. Methods Nurses were asked to demonstrate and explain their methods of tactile stimulation on a manikin, using an apnoea scenario. All nurses demonstrated their methods three times in succession, with the manikin positioned either prone, supine or lateral. Finally, the nurses were asked how they decided on the methods of tactile stimulation used. The stimulation methods were logged in chronological order by describing both the technique and the location. The nurses' explanations were transcribed and categorised. Results In total, 47 nurses demonstrated their methods of stimulation on the manikin. Overall, 57 different combinations of technique and location were identified. While most nurses (40/47, 85%) indicated they learned how to stimulate during their training, 15/40 (38%) of them had adjusted their methods over time. The remaining 7/47 (15%) stated that their stimulation methods were self‐developed. Conclusion Tactile stimulation performed by NICU nurses to terminate apnoea was highly variable in both technique and location, and these methods were based on either prior training or intuition.

Abstract
Background Foot and ankle problems are common in rheumatic disorders and often lead to pain and limitations in functioning, affecting quality of life. There appears to be large variability in the management of foot problems in rheumatic disorders across podiatrists. To increase uniformity and quality of podiatry care for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis (OA), spondyloarthritis (SpA), and gout a clinical protocol has been developed. Research objectives [1] to evaluate an educational programme to train podiatrists in the use of the protocol and [2] to explore barriers and facilitators for the use of the protocol in daily practice. Method This study used a mixed method design and included 32 podiatrists in the Netherlands. An educational programme was developed and provided to train the podiatrists in the use of the protocol. They thereafter received a digital questionnaire to evaluate the educational programme. Subsequently, podiatrists used the protocol for three months in their practice. Facilitators and barriers that they experienced in the use of the protocol were determined by a questionnaire. Semi-structured interviews were held to get more in-depth understanding. Results The mean satisfaction with the educational programme was 7.6 (SD 1.11), on a 11 point scale. Practical knowledge on joint palpation, programme variation and the use of practice cases were valued most. The protocol appeared to provide support in the diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of foot problems in rheumatic disorders and the treatment recommendations were clear and understandable. The main barrier for use of the protocol was time. The protocol has not yet been implemented in the electronic patient file, which makes it more time consuming. Other experienced barriers were the reimbursement for the treatment and financial compensation. Conclusions The educational programme concerning the clinical protocol for foot problems in rheumatic disorders appears to be helpful for podiatrists. Podiatrists perceived the protocol as being supportive during patient management. Barriers for use of the protocol were identified and should be addressed prior to large scale implementation. Whether the protocol is also beneficial for patients, needs to be determined in future research.

Abstract
Background: Preterm infants are commonly supported with 5-8 cmH2O CPAP. However, animal studies demonstrate that high initial CPAP levels (12-15 cmH2O) which are then reduced (termed physiological based (PB)-CPAP), improve lung aeration without adversely affecting cardiovascular function. We investigated the feasibility of PB-CPAP and the effect in preterm infants at birth. Methods: Preterm infants (24-30 weeks gestation) were randomized to PB-CPAP or 5-8 cmH2O CPAP for the first 10 min after birth. PB-CPAP consisted of 15 cmH2O CPAP that was decreased when infants were stabilized (heart rate ≥100 bpm, SpO2 ≥85%, FiO2 ≤ 0.4, spontaneous breathing) to 8 cmH2O with steps of ~2/3 cmH2O/min. Primary outcomes were feasibility and SpO2 in the first 5 min after birth. Secondary outcomes included physiological and breathing parameters and short-term neonatal outcomes. Planned enrollment was 42 infants. Results: The trial was stopped after enrolling 31 infants due to a low inclusion rate and recent changes in the local resuscitation guideline that conflict with the study protocol. Measurements were available for analysis in 28 infants (PB-CPAP n = 8, 5-8 cmH2O n = 20). Protocol deviations in the PB-CPAP group included one infant receiving 3 inflations with 15 cmH2O PEEP and two infants in which CPAP levels were decreased faster than described in the study protocol. In the 5-8 cmH2O CPAP group, three infants received 4, 10, and 12 cmH2O CPAP. During evaluations, caregivers indicated that the current PB-CPAP protocol was difficult to execute. The SpO2 in the first 5 min after birth was not different [61 (49-70) vs. 64 (47-74), p = 0.973]. However, infants receiving PB-CPAP achieved higher heart rates [121 (111-130) vs. 97 (82-119) bpm, p = 0.016] and duration of mask ventilation was shorter [0:42 (0:34-2:22) vs. 2:58 (1:36-6:03) min, p = 0.020]. Infants in the PB-CPAP group required 6:36 (5:49-11:03) min to stabilize, compared to 9:57 (6:58-15:06) min in the 5-8 cmH2O CPAP group (p = 0.256). There were no differences in short-term outcomes. Conclusion: Stabilization of preterm infants with PB-CPAP is feasible but tailoring CPAP appeared challenging. PB-CPAP did not lead to higher SpO2 but increased heart rate and shortened the duration of mask ventilation, which may reflect faster lung aeration.

Abstract
Background: The initial FiO2 that should be used for the stabilization of preterm infants in the delivery room (DR) is still a matter of debate as both hypoxia and hyperoxia should be prevented. A recent randomized controlled trial showed that preterm infants [gestational age (GA) < 30 weeks] stabilized with an initial high FiO2 (1.0) had a significantly higher breathing effort than infants stabilized with a low FiO2 (0.3). As the diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle in these infants, we aimed to describe the effects of the initial FiO2 on diaphragm activity. Methods: In a subgroup of infants from the original bi-center randomized controlled trial diaphragm activity was measured with transcutaneous electromyography of the diaphragm (dEMG), using three skin electrodes that were placed directly after birth. Diaphragm activity was compared in the first 5 min after birth. From the dEMG respiratory waveform several outcome measures were determined for comparison of the groups: average peak- and tonic inspiratory activity (dEMGpeak and dEMGton, respectively), inspiratory amplitude (dEMGamp), area under the curve (dEMGAUC) and the respiratory rate (RR). Results: Thirty-one infants were included in this subgroup, of which 29 could be analyzed [n = 15 (median GA 28.4 weeks) and n = 14 (median GA 27.9 weeks) for the 100 and 30% oxygen group, respectively]. Tonic diaphragm activity was significantly higher in the high FiO2-group (4.3 ± 2.1 μV vs. 2.9 ± 1.1 μV; p = 0.047). The other dEMG-parameters (dEMGpeak, dEMGamp, dEMGAUC) showed consistently higher values in the high FiO2 group, but did not reach statistical significance. Average RR showed similar values in both groups (34 ± 9 vs. 32 ± 10 breaths/min for the high and low oxygen group, respectively). Conclusion: Preterm infants stabilized with an initial high FiO2 showed significantly more tonic diaphragm activity and an overall trend toward a higher level of diaphragm activity than those stabilized with an initial low FiO2. These results confirm that a high initial FiO2 after birth stimulates breathing effort, which can be objectified with dEMG.

Abstract
Some neural circuits within infants are not fully developed at birth, especially in preterm infants. Therefore, it is unclear whether reflexes that affect breathing may or may not be activated during the neonatal stabilisation at birth. Both sensory reflexes (eg, tactile stimulation) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) can promote spontaneous breathing at birth, but the application of NIV can also compromise breathing by inducing facial reflexes that inhibit spontaneous breathing. Applying an interface could provoke the trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) by stimulating the trigeminal nerve resulting in apnoea and a reduction in heart rate. Similarly, airflow within the nasopharynx can elicit the TCR and/or laryngeal chemoreflex (LCR), resulting in glottal closure and ineffective ventilation, whereas providing pressure via inflations could stimulate multiple receptors that affect breathing. Stimulating the fast adapting pulmonary receptors may activate Head's paradoxical reflex to stimulate spontaneous breathing. In contrast, stimulating the slow adapting pulmonary receptors or laryngeal receptors could induce the Hering-Breuer inflation reflex or LCR, respectively, and thereby inhibit spontaneous breathing. As clinicians are most often unaware that starting primary care might affect the breathing they intend to support, this narrative review summarises the currently available evidence on (vagally mediated) reflexes that might promote or inhibit spontaneous breathing at birth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Applying a face mask could provoke a trigeminocardiac reflex. We compared the effect of applying bi-nasal prongs with a face mask on breathing and heart rate of preterm infants at birth. METHODS In a retrospective matched-pairs study of infants <32 weeks of gestation, the use of bi-nasal prongs for respiratory support at birth was compared to the use of a face mask. Infants who were initially breathing at birth and subsequently received respiratory support were matched for gestational age (±4 days), birth weight (±300 g), general anaesthesia and gender. Breathing, heart rate and other parameters were collected before and after interface application and in the first 5 min thereafter. RESULTS In total, 130 infants were included (n = 65 bi-nasal prongs, n = 65 face mask) with a median (IQR) gestational age of 27+2 (25+3-28+4) vs 26+6 (25+3-28+5) weeks. The proportion of infants who stopped breathing after applying the interface was not different between the groups (bi-nasal prongs 43/65 (66%) vs face mask 46/65 (71%), p = 0.70). Positive pressure ventilation was given more often when bi-nasal prongs were used (55/65 (85%) vs 40/65 (62%), p < 0.001). Heart rate (101 (75-145) vs 110 (68-149) bpm, p = 0.496) and oxygen saturation (59% (48-87) vs 56% (35-84), p = 0.178) were similar in the first 5 min after an interface was applied in the infants who stopped breathing. CONCLUSION Apnoea and bradycardia occurred often after applying either bi-nasal prongs or a face mask on the face for respiratory support in preterm infants at birth.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated the effects of coping skills training (CST) on symptoms of depression and anxiety in cancer patients, and investigated moderators of the effects. METHODS Overall effects and intervention-related moderators were studied in meta-analyses of pooled aggregate data from 38 randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Patient-related moderators were examined using linear mixed-effect models with interaction tests on pooled individual patient data (n = 1953) from 15 of the RCTs. RESULTS CST had a statistically significant but small effect on depression (g = -0.31,95% confidence interval (CI) = -0.40;-0.22) and anxiety (g = -0.32,95%CI = -0.41;-0.24) symptoms. Effects on depression symptoms were significantly larger for interventions delivered face-to-face (p = .003), led by a psychologist (p = .02) and targeted to patients with psychological distress (p = .002). Significantly larger reductions in anxiety symptoms were found in younger patients (pinteraction < 0.025), with the largest reductions in patients <50 years (β = -0.31,95%CI = -0.44;-0.18) and no significant effects in patients ≥70 years. Effects of CST on depression (β = -0.16,95%CI = -0.25;-0.07) and anxiety (β = -0.24,95%CI = -0.33;-0.14) symptoms were significant in patients who received chemotherapy but not in patients who did not (pinteraction < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS CST significantly reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety in cancer patients, and particularly when delivered face-to-face, provided by a psychologist, targeted to patients with psychological distress, and given to patients who were younger and received chemotherapy.

Abstract
Background:Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is characterized by knee pain and limitations in daily activities. Muscle weakness is associated with these characteristics, quantified as maximal voluntary muscle torque (MVT). The quality of muscle contraction is presented by fluctuations observed on a torque-time curve and the extent of these fluctuations is referred to as muscle steadiness. Whether muscle steadiness is associated with maximal muscle torque and consequently with pain and activity limitations is unknown.Objectives:To determine the association of knee extensor muscle steadiness with MVT and to explore the association of muscle steadiness with physical functioning in subjects with knee OA.Methods:Baseline data of 172 patients out of 177 patients with knee OA, who participated in the VIDEX trial (trial registration number, NL47786.048.14), were used for this study. Maximal voluntary knee extension torque (MVT) was assessed using an isokinetic dynamometer. Torque-time curve data were processed into (i) coefficient of magnitude of torque variance (CV) in percentage (%), (ii) frequency of torque variance as peak power frequency (PPF) in Hertz (Hz) and (iii) MVT in Newton meters (Nm). Physical functioning was assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire, the Get-Up & Go (GUG) test, the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and the Stair climb up & down test. Correlation and Regression analyses were performed to determine associations. Sex, age, BMI, KL-grade, knee alignment and pain were considered as potential confounders.Results:Lower CV and PPF, reflecting better muscle steadiness, were significantly associated (p< 0.01 and p<0.05, respectively) with higher MVT, but associations were weak. Regression analyses showed a significant association of lower CV with better physical functioning on the WOMAC (p<0.05), also after correction for relevant confounders. The association with WOMAC was confounded by pain, but not by sex, age and BMI. No associations of CV with the GUG test, the 6MWT and the Stair climb up & down test were found. PPF was not significantly associated with physical functioning.Conclusion:This is the first explorative study of muscle steadiness in relation to physical functioning in knee OA patients. Muscle steadiness is, to some extent, related to better physical functioning, but this is not consistent across all measures of physical functioning in this study. There seems to be some relationship, but it is weak and needs further exploration. No previous studies comparing clinical scores to muscle steadiness in knee OA were found to compare our results. Studies on muscle steadiness are needed to improve our understanding on this aspect of muscle torque.References:N/ADisclosure of Interests:Anuja Satam: None declared, Marike van der Leeden: None declared, Arjan de Zwart: None declared, Simon Verberne: None declared, Jim Schrijvers: None declared, Joost Dekker: None declared, WIllem Lems Grant/research support from: Pfizer, Consultant of: Lilly, Pfizer, Jaap Haarlaar: None declared, Martin van der Esch: None declared

Abstract
Objective: Continuous positive airway pressures (CPAP) used to assist preterm infants at birth are limited to 4-8 cmH2O due to concerns that high-CPAP may cause pulmonary overexpansion and adversely affect the cardiovascular system. We investigated the effects of high-CPAP on pulmonary (PBF) and cerebral (CBF) blood flows and jugular vein pressure (JVP) after birth in preterm lambs. Methods: Preterm lambs instrumented with flow probes and catheters were delivered at 133/146 days gestation. Lambs received low-CPAP (LCPAP: 5 cmH2O), high-CPAP (HCPAP: 15 cmH2O) or dynamic HCPAP (15 decreasing to 8 cmH2O at ~2 cmH2O/min) for up to 30 min after birth. Results: Mean PBF was lower in the LCPAP [median (Q1-Q3); 202 (48-277) mL/min, p = 0.002] compared to HCPAP [315 (221-365) mL/min] and dynamic HCPAP [327 (269-376) mL/min] lambs. CBF was similar in LCPAP [65 (37-78) mL/min], HCPAP [73 (41-106) mL/min], and dynamic HCPAP [66 (52-81) mL/min, p = 0.174] lambs. JVP was similar at CPAPs of 5 [8.0 (5.1-12.4) mmHg], 8 [9.4 (5.3-13.4) mmHg], and 15 cmH2O [8.6 (6.9-10.5) mmHg, p = 0.909]. Heart rate was lower in the LCPAP [134 (101-174) bpm; p = 0.028] compared to the HCPAP [173 (139-205)] and dynamic HCPAP [188 (161-207) bpm] groups. Ventilation or additional caffeine was required in 5/6 LCPAP, 1/6 HCPAP, and 5/7 dynamic HCPAP lambs (p = 0.082), whereas 3/6 LCPAP, but no HCPAP lambs required intubation (p = 0.041), and 1/6 LCPAP, but no HCPAP lambs developed a pneumothorax (p = 0.632). Conclusion: High-CPAP did not impede the increase in PBF at birth and supported preterm lambs without affecting CBF and JVP.

Abstract
The PTSD Checklist for the DSM-5 (PCL-5) may be a suitable addition for routine outcome monitoring (ROM) for patients with PTSD.<br/> AIM: To determine whether the PCL-5 is worth the extra effort that administration requires from the patient.<br/> METHOD: Pretest and retest measurement results of the PCL-5 and the OQ-45 were compared head-to-head in 464 patients from the Sinai Center of Arkin.<br/> RESULTS: The correlations between scores on the instruments were high and analysis of variance for repeated measurements revealed no difference in responsiveness. Comparison of Cohen's d (0.49 vs. 0.43) and Delta T (5.0 vs. 4.4), indicated a slightly better responsiveness of the PCL-5 and also the proportion of recovered patients was greater according to the PCL-5 compared to the OQ-SD.<br/> CONCLUSION: At first glance, the PCL-5 and the OQ-SD were equally sensitive to detect change during treatment. However, the PCL-5 provided more detailed information about the nature and severity of symptomatology in an individual patient and with the PCL-5 we were slightly better able to demonstrate clinical significant change than with the OQ-SD. We recommend to add the PCL-5 to ROM for patients with PTSD.

Abstract
The Temporary Holding Department (toa) is a link between the 7/24 service and the admissions departments. We examined the make-up of the admission cohorts and the use of isolation between 2001 and 2017 in the context of demographic developments and changes in the mental healthcare sector.<br/> METHOD: Comparison of patient data in four cohorts who came in during four consecutive periods.<br/> RESULTS: The number of admissions rose from 408 a year in the period 2001-2003 to 728 in the period 2013-2016. The proportion of voluntary admissions increased from 4 to 33%, while emergency compulsory admissions (ibs) fell from 83 to 54%. The proportion of admissions of Dutch people from outside Amsterdam and of people from other countries rose from 11 to 23%. The percentage of patients with schizophrenic disorder rose from 25 to 32%, the percentage with mood disorder from 14 to 20% and the percentage with drug-related disorders from 3 to 7%. Assessment at a police station and the classification psychotic disorder were predictors of compulsory admissions (under the terms of the Dutch bopz act). Men under the age of 45 who were admitted compulsorily were more likely to be isolated. The percentage of patients isolated during admission fell from 37% to 20%, and the length of the periods of isolation also declined. CONCLUSIONS The increase in the annual number of admissions to the toa indicates, in the context of population growth and the rise in tourism, that there is a shortage of available beds in regular admissions departments in Amsterdam. Over the course of fifteen years, the number of Dutch nationals from outside Amsterdam and foreigners doubled. Due to policy and/or as a result of the increased proportion of patients admitted voluntarily, the use of isolation decreased.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although sedation for endotracheal intubation of infants is widely adopted, there is no consensus whether sedation should be used for minimal invasive surfactant therapy (MIST). We compared, in a randomised controlled setting, the level of stress and comfort of preterm infants during MIST with and without receiving low-dose sedation. METHODS Infants between 26 and 36 weeks gestational age were randomised to receive either low-dose sedation (1 mg/kg propofol intravenous) or no premedication during MIST procedure. Standard comfort care was given in both groups, which consisted of administering sucrose in the cheek pouch of the infant and containment. Primary end point was the percentage of infants assessed to be comfortable during the procedure (COMFORTneo-score <14). Secondary parameters included complications of both the MIST procedure and low-dose sedation administration. RESULTS In total, 78 infants were randomised and analysed, with a median (IQR) gestational age of 29+0 (28+0-32+0) weeks. The percentage of infants with a COMFORTneo score <14 during MIST was significantly higher in the sedated group (32/42 (76%) vs 8/36 (22%), p<0.001). The incidence of desaturation (SpO2 <85%) during the procedure was significantly higher in the sedated group (38/42 (91%) vs 25/36 (69%), p=0.023), and infants needed more often nasal intermittent mandatory ventilation during the procedure (39/42 (93%) vs 17/36 (47%), p<0.001). There were no differences in incidence of hypotension, bradycardia, intubation or pneumothoraxes. CONCLUSION Low-dose sedation increased comfort during MIST procedure in preterm infants, but the need for transient non-invasive ventilation was increased. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NTR5010, pre-results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), both high and low forefoot plantar pressures have been reported. Better understanding of pathology in the forefoot associated with altered pressure distribution in patients with RA could help to better formulate and specify goals for treatment with foot orthoses or therapeutic footwear. OBJECTIVES To investigate the association of plantar pressure with disease activity and deformity in the forefoot in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and forefoot symptoms. METHODS A cross sectional study, using data of 172 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and forefoot symptoms, was conducted. Peak pressure (PP) and pressure time integral (PTI) in the forefoot were measured with a pressure platform. Forefoot deformity was assessed using the Platto score. Forefoot disease activity was defined as swelling and/or pain assessed by palpation of the metatarsophalangeal joints. The forefoot was divided in a medial, central and lateral region, in which the following conditions could be present: 1) no pathology, 2) disease activity, 3) deformity or 4) disease activity and deformity. A multilevel analysis was performed using condition per forefoot region as independent variable and PP or PTI in the corresponding region as dependent variable. RESULTS Statistically significant higher plantar pressures were found in forefoot regions with deformities (RR 1.2, CI 1.1-1.3, P<0.0001), compared to forefoot regions without forefoot pathology. No significant differences in plantar pressures were found when solely forefoot disease activity was present in forefoot regions. SIGNIFICANCE Forefoot deformities are related to higher plantar pressures measured in the corresponding forefoot regions. The absence of an association between local disease activity and plantar pressure might be explained by the low prevalence of metatarsophalangeal joint pain or swelling. Future research with sensitive imaging measures to detect disease activity is recommended to reveal the effect of forefoot disease activity on plantar pressure.

Abstract
AIM To determine the time between adjustment of FiO2 at the oxygen blender and the desired FiO2 reaching the preterm infant during respiratory support at birth. METHODS This observational study was performed using a Neopuff™ T-piece Resuscitator attached to either a test lung (during initial bench tests) or a face mask during the stabilization of infants at birth. FiO2 was titrated following resuscitation guidelines. The duration for the desired FiO2 to reach either the test lung or face mask was recorded, both with and without leakage. A respiratory function monitor was used to record FiO2 and amount of leak. RESULTS In bench tests, the median (IQR) time taken to achieve a desired FiO2 was 34.2 (21.8-69.1) s. This duration was positively associated with the desired FiO2 difference, the direction of titration (upwards) and the occurrence of no leak (R2 0.863, F 65.016, p < 0.001). During stabilization of infants (median (IQR) gestational age 29+0 (28+2-30+0) weeks, birthweight 1290 (1240-1488) g), the duration (19.0 (0.0-57.0) s) required to reach a desired FiO2 was less, but still evident. In 27/55 (49%) titrations, the desired FiO2 was not achieved before the FiO2 levels were again changed. CONCLUSION There is a clear delay before a desired FiO2 is achieved at the distal end of the T-piece resuscitator. This delay is clinically relevant as this delay could easily lead to over- and under titration of oxygen, which might result in an increased risk for both hypoxia and hyperoxia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the feasibility of a newly developed model of stratified exercise therapy in primary care for patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). DESIGN Mixed method design (process, outcome and qualitative evaluation). SETTING Six physical therapy practices in primary care around Amsterdam. PARTICIPANTS Fifty eligible patients with knee OA, visiting one of the participating physical therapists (PTs). INTERVENTION Patients were allocated to a subgroup based on a simple stratification tool and received subgroup-specific, protocolized, 4-month, exercise therapy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Feasibility of this model of stratified exercise therapy was explored by multiple process parameters, outcome measures (physical functioning and knee pain; at baseline and 4-months follow-up) and experiences from patients and PTs. RESULTS From 97 potentially eligible patients, fifty patients were included and allocated to the 'high muscle strength subgroup' (n=17), 'depression subgroup' (n=4), 'obesity subgroup' (n=6) or 'low muscle strength subgroup' (n=23). Three patients dropped out during the study period. PTs provided relatively low numbers of sessions (on average 10 sessions), although exceedance of the recommended maximum number of sessions did occur frequently. We found clinically relevant improvements on physical functioning and knee pain (P<0.001 for both) for the total group. In general, the model of stratified exercise therapy was considered to be easily applicable and of added value for daily practice. CONCLUSIONS Our model of stratified exercise therapy seems to be feasible in primary care, although a number of limitations were reported. Future research should determine the (cost-)effectiveness of an adapted model, compared to usual, non-stratified exercise therapy.
