Development and inter-rater reliability of a simple prehospital mobility score for use in emergency patients.

Background: Mobility assessment enhances the ability of vital sign-based early warning scores to predict risk. Currently mobility is not routinely assessed in a standardized manner in Denmark during the ambulance transfer of unselected emergency patients. The aim of this study was to develop and test the inter-rater reliability of a simple prehospital mobility score for pre-hospital use in ambulances and to test its inter-rater reliability.

Genomic Diversity of Campylobacter lari Group Isolates from Europe and Australia in a One Health Context.

Members of the Campylobacter lari group are causative agents of human gastroenteritis and are frequently found in shellfish, marine waters, shorebirds, and marine mammals. Within a One Health context, we used comparative genomics to characterize isolates from a diverse range of sources and geographical locations within Europe and Australia and assess possible transmission of food, animal, and environmental isolates to the human host. A total of 158 C.

A rare Danish case of pyogenic liver abscess.

is a rare Gram-negative bacillus that cause enterocolitis and terminal ileitis. We report the first Danish case with multiple pyogenic liver abscess presenting with 6 weeks intermittently fever, fatigue, and weight loss. The patient was successfully treated with percutaneous drainage and intravenous piperacillin/tazobactam and oral ciprofloxacin.

Whole genome sequencing data used for surveillance of infections: detection of a large continuous outbreak, Denmark, 2019.

Background is one of the most frequent causes of bacterial gastroenteritis. outbreaks are rarely reported, which could be a reflection of a surveillance without routine molecular typing. We have previously shown that numerous small outbreak-like clusters can be detected when whole genome sequencing (WGS) data of clinical isolates was applied.
