Article Synopsis
- Strong opioids are commonly used in medical settings primarily for pain relief, but their potential for overdose and addiction raises concerns among healthcare providers.
- These concerns can lead to hesitancy in prescribing or adjusting dosages that are crucial for effective patient care.
- The literature review aims to clarify when to use opioids, their potential side effects, associated risks, and safe prescribing practices to reassure doctors and encourage responsible use of these medications.
Inter-regional secure hospital units have noted an increase in the complex pathologies and care load of detained patients they receive for somatic care in a short-stay scheduled hospitalisation. Communication between health care providers and prison staff is essential for the proper functioning of these closed units. Transmissions with level 1 health units are essential to ensure continuity of care upon the patient's return to custody.

Methods: We conducted the study in two stages: (i) in a randomized controlled trial (RCT), patients received either intervention (sevoflurane-remifentanil-rocuronium-ropivacaine) or control protocol (isoflurane-sufentanil-atracurium-levobupivacaine). All patients received general anesthesia plus continuous epidural anesthesia and analgesia.
Purpose: A hunger strike is a voluntary fast, performed to protest publicly against an issue deemed unfair. In the case of French prisoners, hospitalization in an interregional hospital secured units (UHSI) may be necessary.
Methods: A retrospective epidemiological study based on one UHSI medical records was performed on the period of May, 2006 to December, 2008, and focused on symptoms, outcomes and ethical problems encountered.
Background And Objectives: Two coadjuvant anesthetic drugs - remifentanil and dexmedetomidine - were compared in terms of anesthetic recovery, arterial pH and PaCO2 evolution, in morbidly obese patients submitted to Capella's surgery.
Methods: Participated in this prospective, randomized and double blind study 92 patients divided in two groups and submitted to standardized anesthetic technique (general/epidural). Remifentanil Group (Group R) and Dexmedetomidine Group (Group D) received continuous intravenous infusion of these drugs (0.
