Abstract:
We have earlier reported establishing a computerized database to audit functional outcomes in patients who underwent head and neck cancer treatment in Victoria, Australiaand attended speech pathology services from April 1997–April 1999. This paper presents the statistical analyses and results from this study.Speech pathologists collected, prospectively, functional outcome data on 293 patients who underwent head and neck cancer treatment, and sent these for analysis to La Trobe University. Clinician and patient assessments of outcomes: speech, swallowing, activity, pain, employment, health, QOL status were made.Initial data on 293 patients were collected and data on mortality and morbidity were compiled at three, six and 12 months post-treatment. Within twelve months, 74 patients had died. Three, six and/or 12-month follow-up data was available on 219 patients, with both clinician and patient assessments of status completed. The status forms are presented as appendices to this paper. Complete status forms on 179 patients at 12 months were obtained.This clinical audit of functional outcomes represents the first study of this kind, collecting data from speech pathologists and patients in a multi-centre study of patients with head and neck cancer. We present data to demonstrate optimal recovery of function at six months, such that this may represent a good reference point for reporting and comparison of functional outcomes.

Abstract:
IntroductionGeneral practice is integral to the Australian healthcare system. Outcome Health’s POpulation Level Analysis and Reporting (POLAR) database uses de-identified electronic health records to analyse general practice data in Australia. Previous studies using routinely collected health data for research have not consistently reported the codes and algorithms used to describe the population, exposures, interventions and outcomes in sufficient detail to allow replication. This paper reports a study protocol investigating patterns of care for people presenting with musculoskeletal conditions to general practice in Victoria, Australia. Its focus is on the systematic approach used to classify and select eligible records from the POLAR database to facilitate replication. This will be useful for other researchers using routinely collected health data for research.Methods and analysisThis is a retrospective cohort study. Patient-related data will be obtained through electronic health records from a subset of general practices across three primary health networks (PHN) in southeastern Victoria. Data for patients with a low back, neck, shoulder and/or knee condition and who received at least one general practitioner (GP) face-to-face consultation between 1 January 2014 and 31 December 2018 will be included. Data quality checks will be conducted to exclude patients with poor data recording and/or non-continuous follow-up. Relational data files with eligible and valid records will be merged to select the study cohort and the GP care received (consultations, imaging requests, prescriptions and referrals) between diagnosis and 31 December 2018. Number and characteristics of patients and GPs, and number, type and timing of imaging requests, prescriptions for pain relief and referrals to other health providers will be investigated.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval was obtained from the Cabrini and Monash University Human Research Ethics Committees (Reference Numbers 02-21-01-19 and 16975, respectively). Study findings will be reported to Outcome Health, participating PHNs, disseminated in academic journals and presented in conferences.

Abstract:
ObjectivesTo investigate the impacts, on mental and physical health, of a mandatory shift to working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic.DesignCross sectional, online survey.SettingOnline survey was conducted from September 2020 to November 2020 in the general population.ParticipantsAustralian residents working from home for at least 2 days a week at some time in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.Main outcome measuresDemographics, caring responsibilities, working from home arrangements, work-related technology, work–family interface, psychosocial and physical working conditions, and reported stress and musculoskeletal pain.Results924 Australians responded to the online questionnaire. Respondents were mostly women (75.5%) based in Victoria (83.7%) and employed in the education and training and healthcare sectors. Approximately 70% of respondents worked five or more days from home, with only 60% having a dedicated workstation in an uninterrupted space. Over 70% of all respondents reported experiencing musculoskeletal pain or discomfort. Gendered differences were observed; men reported higher levels of family to work conflict (3.16±1.52 to 2.94±1.59, p=0.031), and lower levels of recognition for their work (3.75±1.03 to 3.96±1.06, p=0.004), compared with women. For women, stress (2.94±0.92 to 2.66±0.88, p<0.001) and neck/shoulder pain (4.50±2.90 to 3.51±2.84, p<0.001) were higher than men and they also reported more concerns about their job security than men (3.01±1.33 to 2.78±1.40, p=0.043).ConclusionsPreliminary evidence from the current study suggests that working from home may impact employees’ physical and mental health, and that this impact is likely to be gendered. Although further analysis is required, these data provide insights into further research opportunities needed to assist employers in optimising working from home conditions and reduce the potential negative physical and mental health impacts on their employees.

Abstract:
Background:Pain is a hallmark of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and can significantly deteriorate patients’ health status.Objectives:This analysis aims to investigate factors associated with pain intensity in a large sample of European axSpA patients.Methods:2,846 unselected patients participated in EMAS, a cross-sectional study (2017-2018) across 13 European countries. Data from 2,636 participants who reported pain were analysed. Pain was measured by the mean of two BASDAI questions (range 0 “no pain” to 10 “most severe pain”): “How would you describe the overall level of AS neck, back or hip pain you have had?” and “How would you describe the overall level of pain/swelling in joints other than neck, back, hips you have had?”. Linear regression analysis was applied to identify associations between pain intensity and sociodemographic factors, patient-reported outcomes [BASDAI (0-10), spinal stiffness (3-12), functional limitation (0-54), mental health using the 12-item General Health Questionnaire GHQ-12 (0-12)], work life, physical activity and comorbidities, for which 850 patients were included.Results:The mean age of the sample was 44 years, 61.4% were female, 49.4% had a university degree and 67.7% were married. The average reported pain intensity was 5.3 (±2.2); 76.2% reported pain intensity ≥4, with the greatest intensity reported by women (5.5 vs 4.9, p<0.001), those not university educated (5.6 vs 5.0, p<0.001), separated or divorced compared to singles (5.8 vs 5.2, p=0.004), and not physically active (5.7 vs 5.2, p<0.001). In addition, employed patients who experienced work-related issues reported greater pain (5.2 vs 3.9) as did those who experienced/ believed they would face difficulties finding work due to axSpA (5.9 vs 4.3), and those whose employment choice was determined by axSpA (5.7 vs 4.9; all p<0.001). Moreover, associations with anxiety (5.9 vs 5.0), depression (6.1 vs 5.0) and sleep disorders (5.9 vs 4.9; all p<0.001) were also found. The multiple linear regression model showed that those with higher pain intensity reported at least one work-related issue (B=0.65), difficulties finding work due to axSpA (B=0.48), not having attended university (B=0.38), greater spinal stiffness (B= 0.29), being female (B=0.26) and poorer mental health (GHQ-12) (B=0.10) (Table 1).Table 1.Regression analysis of the variables associated with pain intensity (0-10 NRS), n=850UnivariableMultivariableB95% CIB95% CIGender.

Pain was also associated with suffering from depression, anxiety and sleep disorders. Understanding how pain affects individuals and shared-decision making between rheumatologists and patients are essential for long-term disease management and preserving quality of life of axSpA patients.Acknowledgements:This study was supported by Novartis Pharma AG.

Abstract:
Background:Growing evidence of similarities in male-female prevalence of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) has stimulated the need to evaluate gender differences in patient experiences.Objectives:To evaluate gender differences in diagnostic journey, disease-characteristics and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in axSpA patients.Methods:Data from 2846 unselected patients of the European Map of Axial Spondyloarthritis (EMAS) through an online survey (2017-2018) across 13 countries were analysed. Socio-demographic characteristics, diagnosis, disease-characteristics, and PROs [BASDAI (0-10), spinal stiffness (3-12), functional limitation (0-54) and psychological distress (0-12, GHQ-12)] were compared between genders. Χ2(for categorical variables) and student-t (for continuous variables) were employed.Results:1,746 (61.3%) females participated in the EMAS, with homogeneous gender distribution across most countries (Fig 1). Compared to males, females reported longer diagnostic delay (6.1±7.4 vs 8.2±8.9; p<0.001), more visits to physiotherapists (34.5% vs 49.5%; p<0.001) and osteopaths (13.3% vs 24.4%; p<0.001) before being diagnosed (Table 1), higher disease activity in all BASDAI items and greater functional limitation, psychological distress and self-reported anxiety and depression (Table 2).Table 1.Disease characteristics by gender (N: 2846, unless specified)Men (n: 1100)(mean ± SD or %)Women (n: 1746)(mean ± SD or %)p valueAge at onset of first symptoms, n: 272127.0 ± 11.826.4 ± 10.70.342Age at diagnosis, n: 272232.6 ± 12.234.4 ± 10.9<0.001Diagnostic delay, n: 26526.1 ± 7.48.2 ± 8.9<0.001Disease Duration, n: 271618.9 ± 13.316.1 ± 11.7<0.001HCP seen before diagnosis - General practitioner822 (74.7)1434 (82.1)<0.001 - Orthopaedic specialist377 (34.3)557 (31.9)0.190 - Physiotherapist380 (34.5)865 (49.5)<0.001 - Osteopath, n: 2166103 (13.3)339 (24.4)<0.001 - Other, n: 2220135 (14.0)233 (18.5)0.005Family history of axSpA (yes), n: 2244291 (33.5)584 (42.5)<0.001HLA-B27 (positive), n: 1799497 (80.2)786 (66.7)<0.001Uveitis (yes), n: 2096199 (25.2)270 (20.7)0.023IBD (yes), n: 2096113 (14.3)181 (13.9)0.688Table 2.PROs by gender (N: 2846, unless specified)Men (n: 1100)(mean ± SD or %)Women (n: 1746)(mean ± SD or %)p valueBASDAI, (0-10) n: 25845.1 ± 2.05.7 ± 1.9<0.001 - Fatigue, n: 26365.7 ± 2.46.6 ± 2.2<0.001 - Neck, back or hip pain, n: 26365.6 ± 2.46.2 ± 2.2<0.001 - Pain other than neck, back or hip, n: 26364.3 ± 2.74.9 ± 2.6<0.001 - Discomfort to touch or pressure, n: 26364.5 ± 2.75.6 ± 2.6<0.001 - Morning stiffness level, n: 26365.3 ± 2.65.9 ± 2.6<0.001 - Morning stiffness duration, n: 25844.5 ± 2.84.7 ± 2.80.070Stiffness, (3-12) n: 27077.7 ± 2.67.8 ± 2.40.107Functional Limitation, (0-54) n: 277119.1 ± 16.721.2 ± 16.0<0.001GHQ-12 ≥3, n: 2640564 (55.4)1060 (65.4)<0.001Anxiety243 (30.6)566 (43.3)<0.001Depression238 (30.1)472 (36.1)<0.001Figure 1.Countries’ sample distribution stratified by gender (N: 2846)Conclusion:Important gender differences are observed in axSpA such as a longer patient journey to diagnosis, poorer PROs, and greater psychological burden in females.

Abstract:
ObjectivesTo report on the design, implementation and evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of the Back pain Assessment Clinic (BAC) model.DesignBAC is a new, community-based specialist service for assessing and managing neck and low back pain (LBP). The BAC pilot was supported by a Victorian Department of Health and Human Services grant and was evaluated using the Victorian Innovation Reform Impact Assessment Framework (VIRIAF). Data were obtained by auditing BAC activity (22 July 2014 to 30 June 2015) and conducting surveys and interviews of patients, stakeholders and referrers.SettingTertiary and primary care.ParticipantsAdult patients with neck and LBP referred for outpatient surgical consultation.Main outcome measuresVIRIAF outcomes: (1) access to care; (2) appropriate and safe care; (3) workforce optimisation and integration; and (4) efficiency and sustainability.ResultsA total of 522 patients were seen during the pilot. Most were referred to hospital services by general practitioners (87%) for LBP (63%) and neck pain (24%). All patients were seen within 10 weeks of referral and commenced community-based allied health intervention within 2–4 weeks of assessment in BAC. Of patients seen, 34% had medications adjusted, 57% were referred for physiotherapy, 3.2% to pain services, 1.1% to rheumatology and 1.8% for surgical review. Less MRI scans were ordered in BAC (6.4%) compared with traditional spinal surgical clinics (89.8%), which translated to a cost-saving of $52 560 over 12 months. Patient and staff satisfaction was high. There have been no patient complaints or adverse incidents.ConclusionEvaluation of the BAC pilot suggests it is a potentially safe and cost-saving alternative model of care. Results of the BAC pilot merit further evaluation to determine the potential cost-effectiveness, longer term and broader societal impact of implementing BAC more widely.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to determine the association between patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) six months following femoral neck fracture after a low fall and future arthroplasty, and the factors associated with this. Six-month post-fracture PROMs were collected from the Victorian Orthopaedic Trauma Outcomes Registry (VOTOR) for patients aged >55 years who were admitted for a femoral neck fracture after a low fall between March 2007 and June 2015. These cases were linked with those registered by Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR) up to October 2016. Multivariable analysis was performed using a Cox proportional hazards model to determine factors associated with future arthroplasty, including six-month PROMs. Of the 7077 hip fracture patients registered by VOTOR during the study period, 2325 met the inclusion criteria. Internal fixation being used for the initial hip fracture surgery, being younger and having no pre-injury disability were all independently associated with future revision or conversion to arthroplasty. Out of all PROMs, reporting pain and discomfort six months post-fracture was associated with a 9.5-fold increase in the risk of future arthroplasty (95% CI: 3.81, 23.67). The value of clinical registries can be enhanced via data linkage, in this case by using PROMs to predict arthroplasty following femoral neck fracture.

Abstract:
Aim: To find out the most frequent head and neck sites of origin of referred otalgia. Study Design: Descriptive cross-sectional. Place and Duration of Study: Study was conducted at the ENT department of Bahawal Victoria hospital Bahawalpur during January 2019 to December 2019. Methodology: About 500 patients with ear ache were examined and after exclusion 150 were finally analyzed. Detailed history of the patient and clinical examination were done along with radio imaging and endoscopic studies wherever needed. Diagnosis of referred otalgia was made after having normal ear examination along with pathology lying at different head and neck region which share common sensory innervation. For analysis SPSS version-20 was used. Results: The mean age of the study participants was 28.23 ±13 years. The majority of participants were having otalgia of tonsillar origin followed by dental origin and pharyngitis with 31.3%, 23.3% and 16% respectively. Very few of them having otalgia originating from hypopharyngeal carcinoma and laryngeal carcinoma i.e. 3.3% and 2% respectively. While only 4.7% of otalgia were of unknown origin. Female participants were having higher frequency of otalgia which is originated from diseases of temporomandibular joint, hypopharyngeal carcinoma and otalgia of unknown origin in comparison to male participants but differences were insignificant. Otalgia originated from tonsillar and dental causes and due to pharyngitis were most common among the younger age group but having non-significant p-value. Conclusion: It has been concluded that the patients presenting with ear pain, have sometimes no underlying ear pathology. If the ear examination is normal then it is important to examine all other sites of head and neck which share sensory innervation with the ear including teeth, tonsils, pharynx, larynx, nose and paranasal sinuses to find out the exact cause of referred otalgia.

Abstract:
The availability of repeatable dynamic rollover fixtures, like the Controlled Rollover Impact System (CRIS) and Jordan Rollover System (JRS), has changed the face of rollover structural and occupant protection development and evaluation. Tests performed with these devices have demonstrated scientific principles of occupant protection and injury potential which were previously resolvable only by expert rhetoric. Matched-pair experiments with instrumentation measuring dynamic roof crush and dummy injury metrics are now possible. The effectiveness of occupant protection features such as padding, window curtain airbags, belt pretensioners and headrests are qualitatively and quantitatively measureable. The sensitivity of rollover parameters themselves and their effect on injury potential can be determined by tests with different roll rates, pitch angles, impact angles and drop heights. Simulating injury potential to humans with ultimately biofidelic dummy musculature can also be demonstrated. This paper presents two matched pair test sets performed on the CRIS and two matched pair test sets performed on the JRS. The matched pair test sets performed on the CRIS compare the dummy injury measures in reinforced and production versions of the 1998 Ford Crown Victoria and the 1996 Chevrolet Blazer. The CRIS test of the matched pair Crown Victoria vehicles has been presented previously in a paper by Moffatt et al [1]. The matched pair tests that were performed on the JRS were conducted to study the effect of a reinforced roof on dummy injury measures. These tests, performed on production and reinforced versions of the 1998 Ford Explorer and the 1999 Hyundai Sonata, included the measurements of road loads, roof crush and crush speed, dummy upper and lower neck loads, belt loads, as well as the movement of the vehicle during the test.
