معرفی
Viggo Holten is a physician and researcher at Aalborg University Hospital, affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine, Department of Vascular Surgery at Aalborg University. His work centers on hospital epidemiology, specifically investigating hospital-acquired bacteraemia and its clinical consequences through advanced statistical modeling.
His educational background includes a PhD in Medicine from Aalborg University, awarded in 2022 for his thesis on the epidemiology of hospital-acquired bacteraemia.
Dr. Holten's research expertise spans:
- Epidemiology and infectious disease dynamics
- Population-based cohort and case-control study design
- Multi-state modeling of infection outcomes
- Analysis of excess length of stay and hospital readmission
- Risk factor identification for healthcare-associated infections
- Antibiotic regimen monitoring systems
His publications from 2017–2023 reveal a consistent methodological approach using population-based data to quantify the burden of hospital-acquired bacteraemia. Key trends include the application of multi-state models to dissect complex infection trajectories, emphasis on real-world clinical outcomes like mortality and resource utilization, and exploration of modifiable risk factors such as hospital interventions and comorbidities. This body of work demonstrates strong interdisciplinary collaboration across clinical and statistical domains.
