  Year 2011 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 2  
  Keywords early intervention; adolescent; health promotion; public policy on health; recommendations or guidelines; Switzerland  
  Abstract La démarche d’Intervention Précoce (IP) vise à promouvoir un environnement favorable à la santé et à renforcer les compétences éducatives de tous les membres de la communauté pour mieux accompagner les jeunes en situation de vulnérabilité. Il ne s’agit pas seulement de prévenir ou traiter des difficultés telles que problèmes familiaux, scolaires, violence, consommations de substances et autres comportements à risque, mais également de renforcer la construction collective d’un contexte social plus favorable au développement des jeunes. Savoir repérer suffisamment tôt une situation potentielle de vulnérabilité et savoir comment l’orienter selon les besoins constitue le point central de la démarche.

  Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 2  
  Keywords government and politics; political process; laws and regulations; doping; public health; Switzerland  
  Abstract Depuis des décennies, nous menons une guerre acharnée contre le dopage. Celle-ci n’est pas sans rappeler la « guerre à la drogue » où la stratégie poursuivie ne permet pas d’atteindre le but déclaré (l’éradication) et provoque des effets collatéraux néfastes. Des spécialistes tirent la sonnette d’alarme et rejoignent les revendications des professionnels des addictions, qui militent pour l’abandon de la tolérance zéro et l’adoption d’approches pragmatiques dans l’intérêt de la santé publique.

  Title Joint ECDC and EMCDDA rapid risk assessment : epidemiological update: anthrax cases among injecting drug users, June-July 2012 : update, 13 July 2012 Type Book Whole
  Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 7  
  Keywords addiction; heroin; AOD induced risk; drug safety; heroin-assisted treatment; prevention through education; information transfer; AODR mortality; risk assessment; Europe  
  Abstract As of 10 July 2012, five cases of anthrax have been reported among injecting drug users (IDUs) from Germany (n=3), Denmark (n=1) and France (n=1). Reported dates of onset in all five cases range between early June 2012 and 11 July 2012. One German case and the case from Denmark have died. The first two cases from Germany are likely linked through exposure to heroin contaminated by a most likely identical Bacillus anthracis strain (based on molecular typing results). For the third German case there is also some laboratory evidence that the strain could be identical with the outbreak strain, but due to the limited amount of DNA, further typing is not possible. The link of the remaining two cases, though probable, needs to be confirmed through molecular typing. The geographical distribution of the potentially contaminated heroin is unknown at this time, but it is possible it has the same source as the contaminated heroin incriminated in the 2009/2010 outbreak in Scotland (with cases also reported from Germany and England). The risk of exposure for heroin users in European Union (EU) countries is presumably still present and therefore it is not excluded that additional cases among IDUs will be identified in the near future. Information could be disseminated to health care workers, drug treatment and harm reduction centres describing the symptoms of anthrax infection to ensure early treatment, and urging the provision of appropriately-dosed opiate substitution treatment to prevent further anthrax cases.

  Year 2013 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 5  
  Keywords public policy on AOD; public health; illicit drug; prevention campaign; television; evaluation; adolescent; Europe; European Union  
  Abstract The use of mass media campaigns as a drug prevention intervention is relatively common, but it is not without controversy. Both policy makers and practitioners have debated the effectiveness of such campaigns in reducing drug use among young people, and there is a possibility that they may be counter-productive. In Europe, more than one-third of the 30 countries affiliated to the EMCDDA report that mass media campaigns on illicit drugs are either not carried out or have been cut back, in some cases because of concerns about their safety. This analysis contributes to the debate by reviewing the available evidence on the efficacy of massmedia campaigns for drug use prevention.

  Abstract Die Prävention will mit verschiedenen Methoden verschiedene Zielgruppen erreichen. Die Ziele der Prävention sind vielfältig und hängen von zahlreichen Faktoren ab. Die folgenden Dokumente bieten eine Übersicht über die Themen der Suchtprävention. Für Interessierte wird auch Literatur zur Vertiefung angegeben. In “Theoretische Grundlagen der Suchtprävention” werden die wichtigsten Theorien, welche die Basis für suchtpräventives Handeln bilden, dargestellt. Hier finden sich Erläuterungen zu Risikofaktoren und Schutzfaktoren sowie zu Entstehungs- und Interventionstheorien. In “Konzepte der Suchtprävention” wird auf zwei wichtige Einteilungen der Suchtprävention eingegangen: – nach Zeitpunkt der Intervention – nach Zielgruppe der Intervention In der Suchtprävention wird die “Verhältnisprävention” von der “Verhaltensprävention” unterschieden. Die Massnahmen der Verhältnisprävention setzen bei der Umwelt an, diejenigen der Verhaltensprävention beim Menschen. Um die Effizienz und Effektivität von Massnahmen zu überprüfen, ist eine “Evaluation” der Massnahmen notwendig.

Author Australian National Council on AIDS, Hepatitis C. and Related Diseases (ed) url 
  Title National hepatitis C testing policy Type Book Whole
  Year 2003 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages xiii, 68  
  Keywords government and politics; viral hepatitis; hepatitis C; diagnosis; strategy; international area; Australia  
  Abstract Hepatitis C is the most commonly diagnosed notifiable communicable infection in Australia. The Hepatitis C Virus Projections Working Group of the Australian National Council on AIDS, Hepatitis C and Related Diseases (ANCAHRD) released the report Estimates and Projections of the Hepatitis C Epidemic in Australia 2002 which stated that in 2001 approximately 210 000 people in Australia had hepatitis C antibodies and approximately 16 000 new infections were occurring annually. Although the virus may be cleared after infection, it persists in 65–85 per cent of those infected. Of these cases, 5–10 per cent develop cirrhosis after 20 years and 3–5 per cent develop hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, hepatitis C represents a significant public health concern. A diagnosis of hepatitis C also has multiple implications in relation to an individual’s work, family and quality of life. Caring for a person diagnosed with hepatitis C calls for informed and sensitive management. Health professionals, infected people and the community recognise that clear and rigorous guidelines for diagnosing and monitoring hepatitis C infection are needed and that the guidelines should take account of the life of the infected individual as well as of the populations at risk and their needs. The National Hepatitis C Testing Policy has been formulated under the auspices of the Australian National Council on AIDS, Hepatitis C and Related Diseases (the Commonwealth’s principal independent advisory body on hepatitis C) and the Intergovernmental Committee on AIDS, Hepatitis C and Related Diseases (the intergovernmental committee responsible for implementation of the National Hepatitis C Strategy). The policy is intended to provide advice to government, health professionals, industry, hepatitis C–infected individuals, and the community in general, about matters associated with testing. Anti-HCV antibody testing first became available in 1990. The number of hepatitis C antibody tests carried out each year in Australia is approaching 2 million (including blood service and diagnostic testing) and about 50 000 for supplemental immunoassay tests. New technologies have offered further dimensions in testing strategies. Qualitative and quantitative nucleic acid tests (NAT) are useful in detecting infection in the early stages and in assessing clearance of the virus and the effect of treatment. Qualitative NAT can be used to determine if infants of infected mothers have been infected. Genotype testing is useful in predicting the response to treatment because some hepatitis C subtypes are more sensitive to therapy than others. In addition to these tests, short incubation immuno-assays are available and home kits are being developed for marketing. The National Hepatitis C Testing Policy offers clarification on the use of hepatitis C tests and the interpretation of diagnostic tests in the context of other laboratory tests and specific clinical situations. There are 32 recommendations. Recommendations 1 to 19 outline the principles for hepatitis C testing and emphasise the need for individuals to be informed about testing and to be tested voluntarily. Testing must be of benefit to the individual, and confidentiality must be maintained at all levels of testing. People with hepatitis C should have access to treatment and ongoing monitoring. Particular attention should be paid to groups such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, who may have difficulty gaining access to health services; populations at risk, such as injecting drug users and people in custodial settings, also warrant particular attention. Recommendations 20 to 29 outline diagnostic strategies. Appropriate testing standards are to be applied by all laboratories undertaking testing for hepatitis C. Minimum practices, which should be adopted by all laboratories, include the need to confirm antibody reactivity by two separate immuno-assays based on different antigens and different immuno-assay formats. Discordant test results in two immunoassays may require additional testing by qualitative NAT or referral to a reference laboratory, or both. The National Serology Reference Laboratory should keep laboratories up to date on appropriate combinations of immuno-assays, to avoid common cross-reactivity between tests. The utility of qualitative NAT in testing newly diagnosed hepatitis C sero-positive individuals and in testing infants born to hepatitis C sero-positive mothers is discussed in Chapter 6. The use of short incubation tests is not supported—except in the case of screening potential organ donors, when the tests should be performed by suitably trained laboratory personnel. Home sampling or testing is not supported for the Australian situation. The regulation of hepatitis C test kits and the supporting Quality Assurance Program are dealt with in Recommendations 30 to 32. An outline for a classification system for hepatitis C tests and test kits is presented; the system offers a choice of test protocols within a given situation and a framework for evaluation of test kits and for incorporating new technology as it emerges. The policy recommends that it be a condition of registration of hepatitis C kits by the Therapeutic Goods Administration that laboratories using the kits participate in the National Serology Reference Laboratory’s hepatitis C Quality Assurance Program. Standard and reference testing for hepatitis C should be provided by public and private sector laboratories that comply with the National Association of Testing Authorities – Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia audit and accreditation mechanisms, according to National Pathology Accreditation Advisory Committee guidelines. The National Hepatitis C Testing Policy will clarify for all concerned the testing parameters for hepatitis C and guide the approach to diagnosis and management.
