RESUMO

Thiazide diuretics are an essential part of the treatment of hypertension, which affects nearly a third of the world's population. Hydrochlorothiazide is the most widely used member of this class, due to its long availability on the market and the many combinations available with other substances. Other analogues of this class exist, with notable advantages from a clinical point of view, recognized under the name of thiazide-like. This article reviews some of the considerations in clinical practice concerning the different types of thiazides currently available in Switzerland.


Les diurétiques thiazidiques font partie des traitements de premier choix dans la prise en charge de l'hypertension artérielle, touchant près d'un tiers de la population mondiale. L'hydrochlorothiazide est le représentant de cette classe médicamenteuse le plus utilisé dans les combinaisons antihypertensives en Suisse. D'autres analogues de cette classe existent sur le marché, avec des avantages notables du point de vue clinique, reconnus sous la dénomination de thiazides-like. Le choix de l'utilisation d'un diurétique thiazidique repose avant tout sur les indications et les contre-indications relatives à cette classe. Cet article propose une revue de quelques considérations en pratique clinique sur les différents types de thiazides actuellement disponibles en Suisse.

RESUMO

Hypercalcemia, defined as an abnormal elevation of serum calcium, is a common electrolyte anomaly in primary care, affecting almost 1% of the worldwide population. Clinical manifestations concern the neuromuscular, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal and skeletal systems. Among the causes, the main ones are primary hyperparathyroidism, and malignancies. Le initial workup should include the measurement of parathyroid hormone (PTH), and the discontinuation of any medication likely to be involved in iatrogenic hypercalcemia. The chosen treatments and their speed of introduction depend mainly on the severity of hypercalcemia. They include intravenous rehydration, and antiresorptive agents such as bisphosphonates, denosumab or calcitonin.


L'hypercalcémie, définie comme une élévation anormale du taux de calcium sérique, est un trouble électrolytique courant en médecine de premier recours, touchant presque 1 % de la population mondiale. Les manifestations cliniques affectent les systèmes neuromusculaire, cardiovasculaire, gastrointestinal, rénal et ostéoarticulaire. Les causes les plus fréquentes sont l'hyperparathyroïdie primaire et l'hypercalcémie paranéoplasique. Le bilan diagnostique initial nécessite la mesure de l'hormone parathyroïdienne et l'exclusion de tout médicament susceptible d'induire une hypercalcémie. Les traitements choisis et leur rapidité d'introduction dépendent surtout de la sévérité de l'hypercalcémie et comprennent l'hydratation intraveineuse et les inhibiteurs de la résorption osseuse (biphosphonates, dénosumab, calcitonine, etc.).

RESUMO

Steatotic liver disease is the most common liver pathology worldwide, comprises a wide range of liver diseases linked to metabolic dysfunction, excessive alcohol consumption, drug reactions and infectious and genetic origins. Following several years of deliberation, the major liver disease societies have recently adopted a new nomenclature and updated diagnostic criteria for steatotic liver diseases, aimed at better reflecting our evolving understanding of their pathophysiology. This article summarizes these newly adopted designations, explores the basis for these nomenclatures, presents recent epidemiological data and discusses new diagnostic criteria and recent advances in therapeutic approaches for steatotic liver disease.


La maladie stéatosique du foie est la pathologie hépatique actuelle la plus répandue mondialement, englobant un spectre de maladies hépatiques liées au métabolisme, à la consommation d'alcool, à des réactions médicamenteuses et des origines infectieuses et génétiques. À la suite de plusieurs années de délibérations, les principales sociétés spécialisées dans les maladies du foie ont récemment adopté une nouvelle nomenclature et des critères diagnostiques actualisés pour les maladies stéatosiques du foie, visant à mieux refléter notre compréhension évolutive de leur physiopathologie. Cet article résume ces nouvelles désignations adoptées, explore les fondements de ces nomenclatures, présente les récentes données épidémiologiques et discute des nouveaux critères diagnostiques et des avancées récentes dans les approches thérapeutiques des maladies stéatosiques du foie.

RESUMO

Peripheral facial palsy is a common, often idiopathic and self-limiting mononeuropathy. However, secondary facial palsies require specific management: they are most often of infectious, vascular or dysimmune causes. The presence of red flags in the history, clinical examination or medical follow-up should alert clinicians. Because of the high incidence of Lyme disease in our region, this etiology deserves special attention. The management is based on general measures (eye protection, rehabilitation) and corticosteroid therapy; antivirals may provide additional benefit.


La paralysie faciale périphérique (PFP) est une mononeuropathie fréquente, souvent idiopathique et autorésolutive. Cependant, les paralysies faciales secondaires nécessitent une prise en charge spécifique : elles sont le plus souvent de causes infectieuses, vasculaires ou dysimmunes. La présence de drapeaux rouges à l'anamnèse, à l'examen clinique ou lors du suivi médical doivent alerter les cliniciens. En raison de l'incidence élevée de la borréliose dans nos régions, cette étiologie mérite une attention particulière. La prise en charge repose sur des mesures générales (protection oculaire, rééducation) et sur la corticothérapie ; l'ajout d'antiviraux pourrait apporter un bénéfice supplémentaire.

RESUMO

Fusobacterium necrophorum is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacterium that can lead to severe infection in young patients even without immunodeficiency. Due to the length of time for isolation and speciation of this Gram-negative bacillus (typically 5-8 days), and its potential mortality, broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy should be started without delay. With a cervical thrombosis, even on an unusual site and with a standard condition such as tonsillitis, Lemierre syndrome should be considered. We report a case of Lemierre syndrome in a previously healthy young woman.

RESUMO

The management fever of unknown origin (FUO) is a situation often encountered in internal medicine and remains considered a challenge despite advances in the medical field. Defined as a persisting fever despite extensive investigation, cases of FUO often require hospitalization and invasive diagnostic procedures. The role of PET-CT in FUO has been well described in recent years. However, the literature concerning the role of splenectomy in the diagnostic workup is scarce and no standard protocol has been established. Based on a case report, we describe a situation where splenectomy was key in the investigation of a case of FUO, leading to the diagnosis of a high-grade B cell lymphoma. We performed a non-systematic review of the literature to assess the relevance, utility, and risks of splenectomies in the investigation of fever of unknown origin.


La prise en charge d'une fièvre d'origine indéterminée (FOI) est une situation souvent rencontrée en médecine interne. Définie comme une fièvre persistante sans étiologie malgré plusieurs investigations, elle requiert souvent une hospitali sation et des examens parfois invasifs. La place du PET-CT dans la FOI a bien été décrite ces dernières années. Cependant, la littérature concernant l'utilité de la splénectomie dans la recherche étiologique de la FOI est peu abondante. À partir d'un cas clinique, nous décrivons une situation dans laquelle la splénectomie a été l'élément clé dans l'investigation d'une FOI menant au diagnostic de lymphome à cellules B. Nous avons réalisé une revue non systématique de la littérature pour évaluer la pertinence, l'utilité et les risques de la splénectomie dans l'investigation d'une FOI.

RESUMO

Quinolone's antibiotics, with their excellent biodisponibility, tissular penetration and broad spectrum of activity are commonly used in hospitals and outpatient settings. The properties of this class of antibiotics lead to overuse with inevitable selection of resistance, constantly rising in Switzerland. This article provides a summary of various elements useful to balance benefit/risk when using quinolones in daily clinical practice.


Les quinolones sont des antibiotiques fréquemment utilisés en pratique clinique en raison de leur bonne biodisponibilité, pénétration tissulaire et d'un spectre d'activité large, utile en milieu hospitalier comme en ambulatoire. Ces caractéristiques engendrent un risque élevé de surutilisation de cette classe d'antibiotiques avec, pour corollaire, une sélection de résistance large en progression constante en Suisse. Cet article propose une synthèse des caractéristiques permettant d'évaluer le rapport bénéfices/risques de leur utilisation en pratique quotidienne.

RESUMO

Cephalosporins belong to the betalactam group and are frequently prescribed in both out and inpatient settings. Their broad spectrum of activity allows a varied use in most medical specialties, ranging from preoperative prophylaxis to treatment of febrile agranulocytosis. There are currently five generations of cephalosporins, mainly differentiated according to their structure, spectrum of activity and side-effect profile. So-called siderophore cephalosporins are active against many multiresistant bacteria, especially in cases of complicated urinary tract infections or ventilator-associated pneumonia. This article intends to review some general clinical principles in prescription and monitoring of patients treated with cephalosporins.


Les céphalosporines, qui font partie du groupe des bêtalactamines, sont fréquemment prescrites en milieu ambulatoire comme en milieu hospitalier. Leur spectre d'activité étendu permet une utilisation variée dans la plupart des spécialités médicales, allant de la prophylaxie préopératoire au traitement de l'agranulocytose fébrile. Il existe actuellement cinq générations de céphalosporines, que l'on différencie essentiellement selon leur structure, leur spectre d'activité et leur profil d'effets secondaires. Les céphalosporines dites « sidérophores ¼ sont actives contre de nombreuses bactéries multirésistantes, notamment en cas d'infections urinaires compliquées ou de pneumonies liées à la ventilation mécanique. Cet article propose une synthèse de quelques principes généraux utiles pour la prescription et le suivi de patients traités par céphalosporines.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Physician well-being has an impact on productivity and quality of care. Residency training is a particularly stressful period. OBJECTIVE: To assess the well-being of general internal medicine (GIM) residents and its association with personal and work-related factors. METHODS: We conducted an anonymous electronic survey among GIM residents from 13 Swiss teaching hospitals. We explored the association between a reduced well-being (≥5 points based on the Physician Well-Being Index [PWBI]) and personal and work-related factors using multivariable mixed-effects logistic regression. RESULTS: The response rate was 54% (472/880). Overall, 19% of residents had a reduced well-being, 60% felt burned out (emotional exhaustion), 47% were worried that their work was hardening them emotionally (depersonalisation), and 21% had career choice regret. Age (odds ratio [OR] 1.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.05–1.34), working hours per week (OR 1.04 per hour, 95% CI 1.01–1.07) and <2.5 rewarding work hours per day (OR 3.73, 95% CI 2.01–6.92) were associated with reduced well-being. Administrative workload and satisfaction with the electronic medical record were not. We found significant correlations between PWBI score and job satisfaction (rs = -0.54, p<0.001), medical errors (rs = 0.18, p<0.001), suicidal ideation (rs = 0.12, p = 0.009) and the intention to leave clinical practice (rs = 0.38, p <0.001) CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 20% of Swiss GIM residents appear to have a reduced well-being and many show signs of distress or have career choice regret. Having few hours of rewarding work and a high number of working hours were the most important modifiable predictors of reduced well-being. Healthcare organisations have an ethical responsibility to implement interventions to improve physician well-being.

RESUMO

Antibiotic resistance, good resource management and health care costs drive us to think about our practice. In this update we take into consideration therapeutical guidelines for the most frequently encountered serious infections in a hospital setting, and respective non-inferiority studies supporting early switch to an oral form of antibiotic. This strategy generally leads to a shorter hospital stay, with the same effect in terms of mortality, relapse, complications or treatment failure. Too often still, doctors and patients believe that intravenous antibiotics only are effective enough for severe infections, whereas in many cases, oral antibiotics are as effective.


La résistance aux antibiotiques, la bonne gestion des ressources ainsi que les coûts du système de santé, nous poussent à réfléchir à nos pratiques. Dans cet article, nous prenons en considération les recommandations thérapeutiques des infections sévères les plus souvent rencontrées dans la pratique médicale hospitalière ainsi que les études respectives de non-infériorité de l'antibiothérapie orale précoce. Cette dernière permet en général un séjour hospitalier plus court tout en ayant le même effet en termes de mortalité, récidive, complications ou échec de traitement. Trop souvent encore, médecins et patients pensent que seule une antibiothérapie intraveineuse est efficace lors d'infections sévères, alors qu'une administration per os s'avère tout aussi efficace.

RESUMO

Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) have long been considered as devoid of any toxicity, but recent studies have uncovered significant potential side effects related to long-term use. In addition, stopping treatment with PPI may cause a symptomatic rebound effect of acid production. This article reviews the current literature on strategies for rationalizing their use, limiting potential adverse effects and progressive discontinuation.


Les inhibiteurs de la pompe à protons (IPP) ont longtemps été considérés comme dénués de toute toxicité, mais des études récentes ont mis à jour de potentiels effets secondaires significatifs en lien avec leur utilisation à long terme. De plus, l'arrêt du traitement par IPP peut être à l'origine d'un effet rebond symptomatique de la production acide. Cet article propose une revue des données actuelles de la littérature sur les stratégies de rationalisation de leur usage, la limitation de potentiels effets indésirables et de leur sevrage progressif.

RESUMO

Beta-blockers are very commonly drugs used in clinical practice, but whose mechanisms and clinical impacts are not always well understood, especially in certain specific clinical situations. This article proposes a review of some pharmacology notions over the different generations of ß-blockers, as well as a review of indications and side effects in particular clinical situations, such as COPD, portal hypertension with esophageal varices and erectile dysfunction. Finally, an overview of response variability of these treatments is discussed from a genetic point of view.


Les bêtabloquants sont des traitements médicamenteux couramment utilisés en pratique clinique mais dont les mécanismes et les impacts demeurent parfois méconnus, notamment dans certaines situations cliniques spécifiques. Cet article propose une revue de quelques notions pharmacologiques des différentes générations de bêtabloquants, ainsi que les indications et effets secondaires dans des situations cliniques particulières, comme la BPCO, l'hypertension portale avec varices œsophagiennes et la dysfonction érectile. Enfin, un survol de la variabilité de réponses à ces traitements est abordé notamment d'un point de vue génétique.

RESUMO

We report a case of acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by amoxycillin crystalluria suggested by massive amounts of urinary crystals of unusual morphology. This hypothesis was further reinforced by a particular solubility pattern when the urine sample was exposed to various temperatures, alkali, acids and alcohol. We therefore suspended amoxycillin, which produced a rapid and complete recovery of kidney function. Infrared spectroscopy later confirmed the amoxycillin composition of the crystals. Since infrared spectroscopy is not easily available, we propose that these solubility tests of urinary crystals be used as a first-step investigation when amoxycillin crystalluria is suspected.

RESUMO

Development of oncological treatments has progressively and significantly reduced both mortality and morbidity. Chemotherapy and more recently immunotherapy may have short- and long-term side effects among which, renal involvement is one of the most frequent complications, which may alter therapeutic options and quality of life. High cumulative doses of chemotherapy, concomitant administration of nephrotoxic treatment and pre-existing nephropathy are to be carefully considered. This article intends to review some practical considerations concerning therapies from a nephrological point of view.


Le développement de thérapies oncologiques spécifiques a permis de diminuer progressivement et significativement la mortalité ainsi que la morbidité globale. La chimiothérapie et plus récemment les traitements biologiques ciblés peuvent s'accompagner d'effets secondaires à court et long termes, et l'atteinte rénale est l'une des complications les plus fréquentes qui peut notamment limiter significativement les options thérapeutiques et la qualité de vie des patients. Les doses cumulées de ces traitements, l'administration simultanée de traitements néphrotoxiques et la présence de néphropathies concomitantes sont des éléments à prendre en considération. Cet article propose de revoir quelques aspects pratiques sur le plan néphrologique concernant certaines thérapies oncologiques.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia is characterized by arterio-venous malformations (AVM). It frequently involves the liver without clinical symptoms, but may lead to biliary ischaemia, portal hypertension, or fatal high-output heart failure. The indication of liver transplantation is controversial. METHODS: Herein, we report the case of a 65-year-old female patient with a 'double Osler syndrome' consisting of hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) and type I hereditary angioedema diagnosed at the age of 25 and 22 years respectively. RESULTS: Hereditary angioedema was treated with danazol for several decades until multiple hypoechogenic liver masses were detected. Albeit danazol treatment was replaced by C1 esterase inhibitor infusions, hepatocellular carcinoma was diagnosed at the age of 64 and the patient was listed for liver transplantation. HHT was marked by recurrent epistaxis until the age of 63 when severe intestinal bleeding occurred. At the age of 65, severe dyspnoea (NYHA class IV) developed and rapidly progressive high-output cardiac failure was diagnosed. Despite argon plasma coagulation to control bleeding from intestinal angiodysplasia, and treatment with bevacizumab to inhibit angiogenesis, the patient died from severe gastrointestinal bleeding associated with cardiogenic shock at the age of 66 before being transplanted. CONCLUSION: The indication to list this patient for liver transplantation was debated several times before the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma because of good general condition and low MELD score. Precise guidelines for screening and management of patients with hepatic HHT need to be better defined.

RESUMO

Prevention and management of thromboembolic events are historically based on the use of anti-vitamines K (AVK) and heparins. Since 2009, emerging direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) with successive validated indications, changed progressively the way of managing oral anticoagulation. The main advantages of this new generation of medication are a better safety profile and the lack of need for monitoring anticoagulation activity. However, a number of situations in clinical practice still require careful use of these DOAC. This article review some practical considerations and specific situations of hospital and ambulatory settings.


La prise en charge des événements thromboemboliques et leur prévention est historiquement basée sur l'utilisation des antivitamines K et des héparines. Depuis 2009, l'arrivée sur le marché d'anticoagulants oraux directs (AOD), avec la validation successive d'indications, a modifié le paysage de l'anticoagulation et de sa prise en charge. L'avantage principal de cette nouvelle génération de substances est un effet anticoagulant plus prédictible, sans nécessité de suivre l'activité anticoagulante. En pratique clinique, certaines situations requièrent néanmoins une utilisation prudente des AOD. Cet article propose une revue de quelques considérations pratiques et de situations spécifiques issues des pratiques hospitalière et ambulatoire.

RESUMO

Daily medical practice triggers reflexes in the use of drugs which must nevertheless always be adapted to new knowledge. Physician assistants and residents in the clinical ward of Internal Medicine of Sion Hospital summarize six recently published clinical treatments to which primary care physicians or in hospital-based internal medicine have to pay a particular attention. Quinolones are widely used but associated with QT interval widening, morphine delays and attenuate ticagrelor action in patients with myocardial infarction, evolocumab, a monoclonal antibody impact in reducing lipids and cardiovascular events, impact of statins on influenza vaccine effectiveness, vitamin D treatment for the prevention of functional decline, high dose dexamethasone for the treatment of immune thrombocytopenia.


La pratique médicale quotidienne suscite des réflexes dans l'utilisation de médicaments qui doivent sans cesse être adaptés aux nouvelles connaissances. Les médecins du Service de médecine interne de Sion résument six publications sur des traitements auxquels le praticien ambulatoire ou hospitalier doit porter une attention particulière. L'effet des quinolones sur l'intervalle QT, l'administration concomitante de morphine et de ticagrélor en cas de syndrome coronarien aigu, la place d'un anticorps monoclonal pour abaisser le taux de cholestérol, l'impact des statines sur l'efficacité vaccinale, la rôle de la vitamine D à haute dose pour ralentir le déclin de la performance physique, le stéroïde de choix en cas de thrombopénie auto-immune.
