La prévalence du diabète peut être estimée entre 20 et 30% parmi les patients en hôpital aigu. Il a été démontré que l'hyperglycémie, même modérée, est associée à une augmentation de la morbi-mortalité hospitalière, tandis que le contrôle glycémique efficace a un impact favorable sur celle-ci. La prise en charge de l'hyperglycémie demeure pourtant largement inefficace hors des soins intensifs, en raison de la persistance d'une pratique inadaptée. Nous développons actuellement un projet de soins destiné à faire changer les pratiques. Pour un contrôle glycémique efficace, une formation des soignants à une gestion basée sur le concept de couverture des besoins en insuline du patient est nécessaire. La démarche doit être intégrée à une approche de type systémique, prenant en compte le contexte dans lequel les soignants évoluent. The hospital inpatient prevalence of diabetes mellitus can be estimated between 20 and 30%. Even moderate hyperglycemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in the acute care setting, whereas efficient glycemic control has been shown to improve both of them significantly. Glycemic control however remains largely inefficient outside of the intensive care unit due to the persistance of an inadequate glycemic management practice. We are currently developing a clinical care project aimed at changing this practice. For an efficient glycemic control, a training programme for health care professionals based on the concept of covering the insulin needs of the patient is mandatory. This programme needs to be integrated in a systemic approach, which takes the professionals' context in account.

L'article met en évidence la nécessité de prendre en compte le registre des valeurs, engagées dans nos croyances, lorsque nous cherchons à évaluer les méthodes psychothérapeutiques et à les valider scientifiquement. Après avoir montré l'apport de l'anthropologie clinique pour une telle démarche et précisé le lien réunissant science et croyance, il propose une double clarification qui apparaît indispensable à opérer en vue de valider une méthode psychothérapeutique, à savoir une clarification d'ordre épistémologique et scientifique.

A cleft can be labial, labial-maxillary, unilateral or bilateral labial-maxillary-palatal, or isolated palatal. A multidisciplinary team includes several specialists who will handle the diverse problems of children born with a cleft. This team will follow the child through each developmental stage and assemble an optimal treatment plan, thus reducing the onus on the family. Depending on the type of cleft and the age of the child, feeding, speech, ORL, dental, orthodontic, esthetic and possibly also psychological problems will be taken care of. This is why cleft treatment starts at the time it is diagnosed, before or after birth, and ends when the child is fully grown. It requires a complete interdisciplinary team and the collaboration with obstetricians and geneticians.

En 36 chapitres, concis et efficaces, cet ouvrage propose des repères pour la prise en charge des patients adultes en médecine générale et en médecine interne ambulatoire. Les thèmes ont été choisis en fonction des besoins exprimés par les médecins en formation. Chaque chapitre propose une stratégie diagnostique et thérapeutique dans une perspective d'usage rationnel des ressources du système de santé, en tenant compte des données les plus récentes de la médecine basée sur les preuves. Ce livre confirme que la pratique de la médecine reste un subtil assemblage des connaissances scientifiques, de l'expertise clinique et des valeurs du patient.

Underfeeding causes a significant increase of postoperative complications, particularly respiratory and infectious complications. Thoracic surgery is frequently required in patients suffering wasting diseases (cancer, COPD, cystic fibrosis), which increase the risk of malnutrition. The most important risk factors are preoperative hypoalbuminemia and BMI < 20. The deleterious effects of underfeeding may be corrected by a preoperative nutritional support for 7 to 15 days using oral supplements or enteral feeding: respiratory muscle strength is improved, immunity is restored, and overall complications are reduced. Therefore preoperative diagnosis of underfeeding is of utmost importance. In case of emergency surgery, the nutritional assessment on admission enables the introduction of early postoperative artificial feeding.

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a subacute/chronic vasculitis and represents the most common form of systemic vasculitis in people over the age of 50 years. The absence of clear and specific diagnostic criteria with the highly variable clinical presentation is a diagnostic challenge requesting a multidisciplinary approach. Yet, GCA is an emergency and the treatment must be initiated very rapidly due to the risk of blindness. This article presents a review of GCA as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic institutional guidelines of the University Hospital of Lausanne.

Atopic dermatitis is the most frequent dermatosis in childhood. Numerous studies underscored the central role of skin barrier alterations in the pathogenesis of the inflammatory skin lesions. The management of atopic dermatitis has to be multidimensional. It combines among others some daily local care and a sporadic topical anti-inflammatory treatment during the acute flare-ups. The objective of this article is to summarize, in light of the recent European guidelines, the general principles of management of atopic dermatitis, for the general practitioner.

As psychiatric disorders attacking the body, anorexia and bulimia may have severe psychological, physical and social consequences, often requiring a long-standing interdisciplinary, coordinated and individualized approach. Recently the canton of Vaud has initiated and developed an interinstitutional structure--between the University Hospital (CHUV) and the hospitals of the Northern region of the canton (eHnv)--for the care of patients suffering from eating disorders. This structure, allowing the above mentioned approach for the treatment of eating disorders, consists of an outpatient facility located in the CHUV and an inpatient unit in the hospital of Saint Loup of the eHnv. Within this structure, the general practitioner plays a crucial role in the prevention of the chronification of these disorders by means of their early detection and management.

Along with the decrease in kidney function arises a secondary hyperparathyroidism, which constitutes one of the most important risk factor for mortality in patients suffering from renal insufficiency. Treating secondary hyperparathyroidism is challenging, as most of the parameters of mineral metabolism are interconnected. We review here the pathophysiology and treatment options of this entity.
