Introduction: Major trauma often results in long-term disabilities. The aim of this study was to assess health-related quality of life, cognition, and return to work 1 year after major trauma from a trauma network perspective. Methods: All major trauma patients in 2016 (Injury Severity Score > 15, n = 536) were selected from trauma region Southwest Netherlands. Eligible patients (n = 365) were sent questionnaires with the EQ-5D-5L and questions on cognition, level of education, comorbidities, and resumption of paid work 1 year after trauma. Results: A 50% (n = 182) response rate was obtained. EQ-US and EQ-VAS scored a median (IQR) of 0.81 (0.62–0.89) and 70 (60–80), respectively. Limitations were prevalent in all health dimensions of the EQ-5D-5L; 90 (50%) responders reported problems with mobility, 36 (20%) responders reported problems with self-care, 108 (61%) responders reported problems during daily activities, 129 (73%) responders reported pain or discomfort, 70 (39%) responders reported problems with anxiety or depression, and 102 (61%) of the patients reported problems with cognition. Return to work rate was 68% (37% full, 31% partial). A median (IQR) EQ-US of 0.89 (0.82–1.00) and EQ-VAS of 80 (70–90) were scored for fully working responders; 0.77 (0.66–0.85, p < 0.001) and 70 (62–80, p = 0.001) for partial working respondents; and 0.49 (0.23–0.69, p < 0.001) and 55 (40–72, p < 0.001) for unemployed respondents. Conclusion: The majority experience problems in all health domains of the EQ-5D-5L and cognition. Return to work status was associated with all health domains of the EQ-5D-5L and cognition.

- Abstract
Background: A threshold Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16 is common in classifying major trauma (MT), although the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) has been extensively revised over time. The aim of this study was to determine effects of different AIS revisions (1998, 2008 and 2015) on clinical outcome measures. Methods: A retrospective observational cohort study including all primary admitted trauma patients was performed (in 2013–2014 AIS98 was used, in 2015–2016 AIS08, AIS08 mapped to AIS15). Different ISS thresholds for MT and their corresponding observed mortality and intensive care (ICU) admission rates were compared between AIS98, AIS08, and AIS15 with Chi-square tests and logistic regression models. Results: Thirty-nine thousand three hundred seventeen patients were included. Thresholds ISS08 ≥ 11 and ISS15 ≥ 12 were similar to a threshold ISS98 ≥ 16 for in-hospital mortality (12.9, 12.9, 13.1% respectively) and ICU admission (46.7, 46.2, 46.8% respectively). AIS98 and AIS08 differed significantly for in-hospital mortality in ISS 4–8 (χ
2 = 9.926, p = 0.007), ISS 9–11 (χ2 = 13.541, p = 0.001), ISS 25–40 (χ2 = 13.905, p = 0.001) and ISS 41–75 (χ2 = 7.217, p = 0.027). Mortality risks did not differ significantly between AIS08 and AIS15. Conclusion: ISS08 ≥ 11 and ISS15 ≥ 12 perform similarly to a threshold ISS98 ≥ 16 for in-hospital mortality and ICU admission. This confirms studies evaluating mapped datasets, and is the first to present an evaluation of implementation of AIS15 on registry datasets. Defining MT using appropriate ISS thresholds is important for quality indicators, comparing datasets and adjusting for injury severity. Level of evidence: Prognostic and epidemiological, level III.

- Abstract
Introduction: The Emergency Management of Severe Burns (EMSB) referral criteria have been implemented for optimal triaging of burn patients. Admission to a burn centre is indicated for patients with severe burns or with specific characteristics like older age or comorbidities. Patients not meeting these criteria can also be treated in a hospital without burn centre. Limited information is available about the organisation of care and referral of these patients. The aims of this study are to determine the burn injury characteristics, treatment (costs), quality of life and scar quality of burn patients admitted to a hospital without dedicated burn centre. These data will subsequently be compared with data from patients with<10% total bodysurface area (TBSA) burned who are admitted (or secondarily referred) to a burn centre. If admissions were in agreement with the EMSB, referral criteria will also be determined., Methods and Analysis: In this multicentre, prospective, observational study (cohort study), the following two groups of patients will be followed: 1) all patients (no age limit) admitted with burn-related injuries to a hospital without a dedicated burn centre in the Southwest Netherlands or Brabant Trauma Region and 2) all patients (no age limit) with<10% TBSA burned who are primarily admitted (or secondarily referred) to the burn centre of Maasstad Hospital. Data on the burn injury characteristics (primary outcome), EMSB compliance, treatment, treatment costs and outcome will be collected from the patients' medical files. At 3 weeks and at 3, 6 and 12 months after trauma, patients will be asked to complete the quality of life questionnaire (EuroQoL-5D), and the patient-reported part of the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS). At those time visits, the coordinating investigator or research assistant will complete the observer-reported part of the POSAS., Ethics and Dissemination: This study has been exempted by the medical research ethics committee Erasmus MC (Rotterdam, The Netherlands). Each participant will provide written consent to participate and remain encoded during the study. The results of the study are planned to be published in an international, peer-reviewed journal., Trial Registration Number: NTR6565., Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared., (© Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2018.

- Abstract
Background: Long-term functional sequelae after resection of sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) are relatively common. This study determines the incidence of these sequelae associated clinical variables and its impact on quality of life (QoL)., Patients and Methods: Patients with SCT treated from 1980 to 2003 at the pediatric surgical centers in The Netherlands aged more than 3 years received age-specific questionnaires, which assessed parameters reflecting bowel function (involuntary bowel movements, soiling, constipation), urinary incontinence, subjective aspect of the scar, and QoL. These parameters were correlated with clinical variables, which were extracted from the medical records. Risk factors were identified using univariate analysis., Results: Of the 99 posted questionnaires, 79 (80%) were completed. The median age of the patients was 9.7 years (range, 3.2-22.6 years). There were 46% who reported impaired bowel function and/or urinary incontinence (9% involuntary bowel movements, 13% soiling, 17% constipation), and 31% urinary incontinence. In 40%, the scar was cosmetically unacceptable. Age at completion of the questionnaire, Altman classification, sex, and histopathology were not risk factors for any long-term sequelae. Size of the tumor (>500 cm3) was a significant risk factor for cosmetically unacceptable scar (odds ration [OR], 4.73; confidence limit [CL], 1.21-18.47; P = .026). Long-term sequelae were correlated with diminished QoL., Conclusion: A large proportion of the patients with SCT have problems with defecation, urinary incontinence, or a cosmetically unacceptable scar that affects QoL. Patients who are at higher risk for the development of long-term sequelae cannot be clearly assessed using clinical variables.

- Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was (1) To determine the value of fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in children with persistent or suspicious peripheral lymphadenopathy and (2) to analyze whether a history of previous malignancy influenced the accuracy of FNAC., Methods: A retrospective study in an Academic Children's Hospital of 73 FNACs of peripheral lymph nodes in 64 patients (35 boys and 29 girls; median age, 9 years; range, 15 months to 20 years) was performed between 1992 and 1997. Eleven patients were excluded because aspirated material appeared inadequate. Outcome was compared with results of subsequent surgical biopsies, clinical follow-up, or both. Patients were divided into group A "de novo" lymphadenopathy (n = 39) and group B lymphadenopathy and a history of previous malignancy (n = 23)., Results: Group A: FNAC showed a benign diagnosis in 25 cases, a malignancy in 13, and was inconclusive in 1. Outcome was false-negative in 2 and false-positive in 1. Sensitivity and specificity were 86% and 96%, respectively. FNAC helped avoid additional surgical procedures in 27 cases (61%). However, if FNAC showed malignant lymphoma, open biopsy was inevitable (8 of 13) to establish proper classification. Group B: FNAC showed a benign diagnosis in 10 cases and a malignancy in 13. Outcome was false-negative in 1, and false-positive in 1. Sensitivity and specificity were 92% and 90%, respectively. FNAC helped avoid additional surgical diagnostic procedures in 25 cases (86%)., Conclusions: (1) Fine-needle aspiration cytology is a rapid, simple and accurate diagnostic procedure to differentiate between benign and malignant peripheral lymphadenopathy in children. FNAC can avoid open biopsy in at least 60% of cases. (2) A history of previous malignant disease does not influence the accuracy of the test.

- Abstract
Non-heart-beating (NHB) donors are a valuable source of kidneys for transplantation. The organs, however, sustain substantial warm ischemic damage that may jeopardize the transplantability and result in nonfunction of the grafts. Quantification of warm ischemic time (WIT) and prediction of transplant outcome are essential for the use of NHB donor organs. During machine preservation (MP) the viability of NHB donor kidneys was evaluated through calculating intrarenal vascular resistance and determining lactate dehydrogenase and alpha-glutathione S-transferase (alphaGST) in the perfusate. Thirty-seven functioning (F) and nine nonfunctioning kidneys (NF) were compared. WIT was longer in NF; serum creatinine, donor age, and preservation time were not different. WIT correlated well with alphaGST after 4 and 8 hr of MP (r=0.353, P=0.009, and r=0.346, P=0.011, respectively). When compared with F, intrarenal vascular resistance was increased in NF after 4 and 8 hr of perfusion (P<0.05); at all time points, alphaGST levels were elevated in NF (P<0.05). Lactate dehydrogenase activity was not different between the groups, but could identify immediate functioning grafts within the F group. In conclusion, alphaGST levels correlated strongly with WIT and were also able to distinguish NF from F grafts. alphaGST can adequately predict the functional outcome of NHB donor grafts before transplantation; levels of alphaGST can be used to define reliable safety margins for viability. Therefore, MP is useful in evaluating the viability of NHB donor kidneys, and the parameters discussed will help to select nonviable grafts from this valuable pool of kidneys for transplantation.
