Sepsis (blood poisoning/toto pirau) is what happens when the body’s response to an infection damages its own tissues and organs. Although the exact proportion is unknown, we do know that infections occur more commonly in young children, older adults, people with ‘chronic conditions’ and those who live in areas of economic deprivation. This is the first study in New Zealand to look at the costs of a hospital admission with sepsis. The findings suggest that a quarter of hospital in-patients have an infection that can lead to sepsis. When sepsis develops, it costs $11,000 on average and $13,000 for people who are re-admitted after a sepsis episode, comparable with major trauma. A retrospective analysis of calls to the New Zealand National Poisons Centre regarding Pacific patients Eeva-Katri Kumpula, Rosalina Richards, Pauline Norris, Vanda Symon, Adam C Pomerleau This study aimed to describe contacts to the New Zealand National Poisons Centre (NZNPC) in 2018–2019 relating to Pacific patients. Of all 40,185 patients, Pacific patients comprised 3.4%, non-Pacific 61.9% and people of unknown ethnicities 34.7%. A total of 78.0% of Pacific patients were aged 0–5, 70.4% of exposures were due to child exploratory behaviour, where a child explores their surroundings (eg, putting things in their mouths), and 96.8% occurred in residential settings. Pacific patients were most often exposed to substances commonly found in households. The wellbeing of children and youth is central to the aspirations of Pacific peoples, and the NZNPC service could be a useful resource for families if exposures do occur. Interviews with health professionals about the National Child Protection Alert System Patrick Kelly, Melissa Adam, Carmen Basu, Miranda Ritchie, Denise Wilson, Fred Seymour The National Child Protection Alert System functions in every district health board. It helps health providers share information with colleagues across New Zealand about children where there have been serious concerns about possible maltreatment, so those colleagues may be more likely to provide appropriate help and/or recognise recurrent abuse or neglect. This research describes how the National Child Protection Alert System is regarded by a represen- tative sample of health professionals who work within it and make decisions about whether an alert will be placed. Generally, health professionals regard the system positively, but they identify a number of areas where the system could be enhanced to improve access to infor- mation and reduce any risk of misuse. Clinician knowledge of driving restrictions following a stroke event Laura Stratton, John Parsons, Shannon Tisbury, Susan Waterworth, Nicola Starkey A stroke can have a dramatic and lasting impact on someone’s life and how they think, move and interact with their environment. Driving after stroke can be particularly challenging, but it is often seen as vital to successful rehabilitation. Health professionals working in acute and rehabilitation services are often expected to provide information and advice about driving NZMJ 15 January 2021, Vol 134 No 1528 ISSN 1175-8716 © NZMA 5 www.nzma.org.nz/journal restrictions to people in the early stages following stroke. We surveyed 49 health profes- sionals about their knowledge of New Zealand Transport Agency guidelines for driving after stroke and found that many health professionals have discussions with people about driving restrictions following a TIA or stroke. However, there appears to be limited knowledge of all the restrictions for each condition as they relate to either private or commercial vehicle use. Insufficient training and education for clinicians might explain this gap. Prognostic significance of mid-range ejection fraction following Acute Coronary Syndrome (ANZACS-QI 23) Daniel Chan, Robert N Doughty, Mayanna Lund, Mildred Lee, Katrina Poppe, Andrew J Kerr Previous studies have shown that patients who have suffered a heart attack and who have reduced heart pump function with an ejection fraction of less than 40% have a high risk of dying. In this study, we followed-up over 6,000 New Zealand patients who had a heart attack in 2015. We found that those with mid-range heart pump function with an ejection fraction of 40–50% had a 1.5-fold higher risk of death compared to those with normal ejection fraction, but they had a lower risk compared to those with reduced ejection fraction. Unlike those with reduced ejection fraction following a heart attack, there are no medications that improve outcomes in patients with mid-range ejection fraction.
