RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Older people have the highest suicide rates in the world. In turn, they have the lowest rates of suicide attempts. Many studies have found greater health contact, especially with general practitioner, prior to suicidal behaviour in this age group. Less information is availbale about prior contact with other health services. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study is to know the characteristics of contact with all levels of health services, prior to a suicide attempt in people over 65 years of age in a defined population. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Along the period January 2015 to December 2017, all persons over 65 years of age admitted by suicide attempt to emergency room in the health area of Santiago de Compostela were interviewed. The interview included a psychiatric evaluation and the collrection of relevant clinical and sociodemographic variables, in particular, data on prior contact with health services. RESULTS: 80 suicide attempts were recorded, which represents an incidence of 35.3 / 100,000. The average age of our sample was 74.85 ± 7 years, the ratio between male: female was 2: 3. 61.3% had visited their general practitioner the month prior to the attempt, 72.5% had visited a health centre. On the other hand, 41.3% were not under the follow up of Mental Health services. CONCLUSIONS: The facts hat two out of three people over 65 years who commit suicide attempt in our area visit their general practitioner the previous month and 90% visit a health service along the previous three months, raise the question of wheter preventive measures of suicide could take place beyond the scope of Primary Care.

RESUMO

INTRODUCCIÓN: Las personas de edad avanzada presentan las tasas más altas de suicidio en todo el mundo. A su vez, tienen las menores tasas de intentos de suicidio. Muchos estudios coinciden en señalar que en este grupo de edad existe un mayor contacto sanitario previo a las conductas suicidas, especialmente con Atención Primaria. El contacto previo con otros niveles asistenciales es menos conocido. OBJETIVO: El objetivo del estudio es conocer las características del contacto con centros sanitarios, de todos los niveles asistenciales, previo a un intento de suicidio, en personas mayores de 65 años, en un área sanitaria bien delimitada. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: En el periodo de enero de 2015 a diciembre de 2017, todas las personas mayores de 65 años del área sanitaria de Santiago de Compostela atendidas en el servicio de urgencias por intentos de suicidio fueron entrevistadas. La entrevista incluyó una evaluación psiquiátrica y la recogida de distintas variables clínicas y sociodemográficas, así como datos sobre el contacto previo con centros sanitarios. RESULTADOS: Se registraron 80 intentos de suicidio, lo que supone una incidencia de 35,3/100.000. La edad media de nuestra muestra fue de 74,85 ± 7 años, la proporción entre hombre: mujer fue de 2:3. En las cuatro semanas previas a la tentativa, el 61,3% visitó a su médico de Atención Primaria y el 72,5% visitó algún centro sanitario. El 41,3% no estaba a seguimiento en servicios de Salud Mental. CONCLUSIONES: El hecho quedo de cada tres personas mayores de 65 años que cometen un intento de suicidio en nuestra área visitaron a su médico de Atención Primaria durante el mes previo y el 90% hubieran visitado algún centro sanitario durante los tres meses previos, plantea la posibilidad de que las medidas preventivas del suicidio pudieran llevarse a cabo más allá del ámbito de la Atención Primaria

RESUMO

Introducción: Las personas de edad avanzada presentan las tasas más altas de suicidio en todo el mundo. A su vez, tienen las menores tasas de intentos de suicidio. Este hecho responde a diversos factores, que hacen que la conducta suicida en el anciano sea de alta letalidad, consumándose el suicidio al primer intento en un gran número de casos. Objetivo: conocer el perfil sociodemográfico y clínico de las personas mayores de 65 años que son atendidas en el servicio de urgencias del Hospital Clínico de Santiago de Compostela por un intento de suicidio. Material y métodos: en el periodo de Enero de 2015 a Diciembre de 2017 todas las personas mayores de 65 años atendidas por intento de suicidio en el servicio de urgencias e Interconsulta de psiquiatría del Hospital Clínico de Santiago de Compostela fueron evaluadas y entrevistadas. Se recogieron distintas variables clínicas y sociodemográficas de interés. Resultados: se registraron 80 tentativas de suicidio, lo que supone una incidencia de 35,3/100.000. La edad media de nuestra muestra fue de 74,85±7 años, la proporción entre hombre:mujer fue de 2:3. La mitad de la muestra estaba casada y la mayoría vivían con familia. El 25% presentaba tentativas previas, siendo la mayoría mujeres (p<0,01). El diagnóstico mayoritario pertenecía al grupo de Trastornos afectivos y el método más utilizado fue el de sobreingesta medicamentosa. El desencadenante o estresante más frecuente estuvo en relación a conflictiva intrafamiliar. Se encontraron diferencias en los subgrupos por la edad del episodio índice superior o inferior a los 65 años en cuanto al sexo, diagnóstico, e ingresos previos. Conclusiones: Las personas de más de 65 años que intentan suicidarse en nuestra área presentan un perfil sociodemográfico similar a otras muestras de nuestro entorno. Las mujeres, con ingresos previos en psiquiatría, tentativas antes de los 65 años, y con algún diagnóstico de Trastorno de la Personalidad son una población de riesgo para presentar nuevas tentativas más allá de los 65 años


Introduction: Elderly people have the highest suicide rates in the world. In turn, they have the lowest rates of suicide attempts. This fact responds to several factors, which make suicidal behavior in the elderly a behavior of high lethality, committing suicide at the first attempt in a large number of cases. Objective: to know the sociodemographic and clinical profile of people over 65 years who are treated in the emergency department of the Clinical Hospital of Santiago de Compostela for an attempted suicide. Material and methods: from January 2015 to December 2017 all people over 65 years treated by suicide attempt in the emergency service and Psychiatry Interconsultation of the Clinical Hospital of Santiago de Compostela were evaluated and interviewed. Different clinical and sociodemographic variables of interest were collected. Results: 80 suicide attempts were recorded, which represents an incidence of 35.3 / 100,000. The average age of our sample was 74.85 ± 7 years, the ratio between male: female was 2: 3. Half of the sample was married and most lived with family. 25% had previous attempts, the majority being women (p <0.01). The majority diagnosis was the Affective Disorders group and the most used method was drug overdose. The most frequent trigger or stressor was related to intrafamiliar conflict. Differences were found in the subgroups by the age of the index episode above or below 65 years in terms of sex, diagnosis, and previous income. Conclusions: People over 65 who try to commit suicide in our area have a sociodemographic profile similar to other samples from our environment. Women, with previous income in psychiatry, attempts before the age of 65, and with some diagnosis of Personality Disorder are a risk population to present new attempts beyond 65 years

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Spasmophemia, also called stuttering or stammering, is a speech disorder characterized by impairment of the rhythm of words whose classical symptoms are blocks and repetitions. METHODOLOGY: We describe the case of a male patient, his evolution and therapeutic strategies and review the current literature on the subject. RESULTS: A 33-year-old patient was referred to our Mental Health Unit by his family doctor due to "speech problems and difficulty expressing ideas. His symptoms had worsened in recent weeks, with increase in his state of anxiety." Standing out in the consultation to the doctor, the patient experienced multiple blocks in expressing words, using circumlocutions and monosyllabic repetitions that made it very difficult to conduct the interview. Anticipatory anxiety and occasional obsessions of repeated checking also stand out. After six weeks of treatment with olanzapine 5 mg/daily, the patient showed significant improvement both in the fluency and anticipatory anxiety with decreased repetitions, blocking, interjections and broken words. DISCUSSION: Spasmophemia has been associated with dopaminergic hyperactivity, so that studies have been conducted with atypical antipsychotics. Fundamentally, olanzapine and risperidone have revealed promising results. Furthermore, several studies have shown that these patients have higher rates of anxiety. That is why antidepressants and antianxiety drugs such as clomipramine, paroxetine, fluoxetine, citalopram, sertraline and alprazolam have been used. CONCLUSION: Treatment with olanzapine, 5HT-2 and D1/ D2 antagonist, significantly improved the clinical picture as Boyd et al. have described in their systematic review.

RESUMO

Introducción. La espasmofemia, también llamada disfemia o tartamudeo, es un trastorno del habla caracterizado por la alteración del ritmo de las palabras y cuyos síntomas clásicos son los bloqueos y las repeticiones. Metodología. Se describe el caso clínico de un paciente, su evolución y estrategias terapéuticas, asimismo se revisa la literatura actual acerca del tema. Resultados. Paciente de 33 años, derivado a nuestra Unidad de Salud Mental por su médico de cabecera al presentar: "problemas de expresión y dificultad para expresar ideas, clínica que ha empeorado en las últimas semanas incrementándose su estado de angustia". En consulta destacan múltiples bloqueos en la emisión del lenguaje con circunloquios y repeticiones monosilábicas que plantean grandes dificultades para realizar la entrevista. Destaca también ansiedad anticipatoria y ocasionales obsesiones de comprobación. Tras seis semanas de tratamiento con olanzapina 5 mg/ día, presenta una mejoría significativa tanto en la fluidez, como en la ansiedad anticipatoria con disminución de las repeticiones, bloqueos, interjecciones y palabras entrecortadas. Discusión. La espasmofemia se ha asociado con una hiperactividad dopaminérgica por lo que se han realizado estudios con antipsicóticos atípicos: fundamentalmente olanzapina y risperidona, que han desvelado resultados prometedores. Por otra parte diversos estudios constatan que estos pacientes presentan índices más altos de ansiedad. Para ello se han empleado fármacos antidepresivos y ansiolíticos como la clomipramina, paroxetina, fluoxetina, citalopram, sertralina y alprazolam. Conclusión. El tratamiento con olanzapina, antagonista de los receptores 5HT-2 y D1/D2, mejoró significativamente el cuadro clínico tal como han descrito Boyd y cols. en su revisión sistemática (AU)

RESUMO

En los últimos años se han producido importantes avances en la comprensión de la fisiopatología de los miembros fantasma, del síndrome de Charles Bonnet y de las alucinosis musicales, olfatorias y gustativas, que hacían necesaria su revisión para el lector en español. Históricamente los autores que se han ocupado del tema han oscilado entre atribuir un origen central o uno periférico a estos fenómenos. A la luz de la evidencia actual, sin embargo, la mayor parte de los autores coinciden en señalar como probable un mecanismo mixto en donde la pérdida de la aferencia sensorial periférica provoque la liberación de engramas centrales. Siguiendo esta teoría, proponemos en el presente trabajo la consideración del fenómeno del miembro fantasma como una alucinosis cenestésica y su integración junto con el síndrome de Charles Bonnet, las alucinosis musicales y las alucinosis olfatorias y gustativas, dentro de un constructo más amplio al que denominamos alucinosis por desaferenciación. Seguimos para ello las propuestas actuales que insisten en señalar el parentesco fisiopatológico de estos cuadros, a pesar de las diferentes modalidades sensoriales implicadas (AU)
