Il ressort que de l'avis largement majoritaire de tous les acteurs, institutions comme médecins privés, les soins palliatifs se sont améliorés dans le canton au cours des dix dernières années. Ce bilan positif est également confirmé par la comparaison des données qui avaient été recueillies en 2000 lors de la phase d'organisation des soins palliatifs dans le canton de Vaud. Trois éléments-clé sont évoqués comme cause de cette amélioration: les équipes mobiles en soins palliatifs (EMSP), les personnes-ressource et les formations en soins palliatifs . Cependant, des lacunes demeurent dans les institutions concernant, par exemple, l'inscription d'une définition des soins palliatifs dans les chartes institutionnelles ainsi que les différences observées entre les divers secteurs de soins et l'augmentation des déclarations de ressources inadéquates ou insuffisantes pour les soins palliatifs en comparaison à 2000. Les médecins quant à eux sont nombreux à faire part de leur difficulté à trouver le temps nécessaire à une formation spécifique mais aussi à faire reconnaître celui que requiert la coordination dans une prise en charge comprenant des soins palliatifs.

Although the performance of the Swiss health system is high, one out of ten patients in general practitioner's (GP) office declares having foregone care in the previous twelve months for economic reasons. Reasons for foregoing care are several and include a lack of knowledge of existing social aids in getting health insurance, unavailability of GPs and long waiting lists for various types of care. Although long term knowledge of patients or a psychosocial history of deprivation or poverty may help identify individuals at risk of foregoing care, many may remain undetected. We propose then a few instruments to help GPs to identify, in a simple and structured approach, patients at risk of forgoing care for economic reasons; these patients are frequently deprived and sometimes poor.

Résumé : Les maladies cardiovasculaires restent la première cause de mortalité dans notre pays. Elles sont associées à des facteurs de risque (FRCV) bien connus comme le diabète ou la dyslipidémie. Nous résumons ici les principaux résultats de l'étude CoLaus concernant d'une part la prévalence du diabète et de la dyslipidémie et certaines caractéristiques de leur prise en charge.Les découvertes récentes concernant de nouveaux déterminants génétiques impliqués dans ces FRCV sont présentées de manière succincte. La contribution de ces données génétiques est également discutée dans une perspective de prise en charge clinique.[Abstract] Cardiovascular diseases remain the first cause of mortality in our country. They are associated with well known risk factors such as diabetes and dyslipidemia. Herein we summarize main results of the CoLaus study regarding, first the prevalence and characteristics of the treatment of these risk factors.Then we present recent discoveries of new genetic determinants associated with these risk factors. Finally, we discuss whether this knowledge changes our current clinical management of our patients.

Chronic stress in Western society can activate the autonomus, neuroendocrine and inflammatory/immunlogic systems. Chronic exposure to stressors can indeed stimulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and induce a disbalance between anabolic and catabolic hormones, responsible of an increased in visceral fat and of insulin resistance. These metabolic consequences can lead to pre-diabetes. Exposure to chronic stress results in allostatic load and its pathophysiologic consequences. The knowledge of this mecanisms and the cardiovascular and metabolic risk related, should influence our way of thinking about patient care. To decrease allostatic load, practitioners can rely on therapeutic relation. Therapeutic education is one of the skill that can be use to create therapeutic relation.

Cet article présente le nouveau modèle de remboursement proposé par l'industrie pharmaceutique pour des traitements très coûteux : le "capping model" ou CAP. Les autorités acceptent le remboursement d'un montant plafond et l'industrie prend en charge un éventuel dépassement de coût du traitement.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to calculate the percentiles of BMI of a cohort of 1,203 children and adolescents, representing the 95% of the pupils of the school, born in 1980 followed longitudinally between 5 and 16 years. We compare these percentiles with those of the first swiss study, calculated on a cohort born in 1954-1956. METHODS: The percentiles were calculated with the method of Cole, on the basis of weight and height measured during the controls by the school health service, at a non-periodic mean interval of 14 months. RESULTS: The gap between the BMI percentiles of the two cohorts is near zero for the third percentiles, weak but progressively growing with age up to two units of BMI for the 50th percentiles. For the percentiles 97 the difference, straight away present at five years, grows regularly up to 11 years, and remains thereafter for the girls at 4.3 units of BMI, while growing more up to 6.8 units of BMI at 15 years for the boys. The percentages of children and adolescents of the present study with overweight, in accordance with the thresholds of Cole, constant for the girls at 14%, increase for the five to 11.5 years old boys from 13.4% to 17.6% for the 11.5 to 16 years old. The percentage of obesity is 2.7% for the girls, and increase for the same categories for the boys from a percentage of 1.7% to 2.3% for the boys. CONCLUSIONS: The changes during this quarter of century are important, especially for the boys. We can postulate thereafter a very early change in the energy balance. A chronic increase of the food supply, linked or not with a decrease of the physical activity, would be an explanation.
