In Pregnancy

NVP occurs in 50–90% of pregnancies, making it a common medical condition in pregnancy. Women present differently with any combination of signs and symptoms. It is appropriate to take the pregnancy-related versus nonpregnancy-related approach when determining the cause of nausea and vomiting but other causes should be considered. The most common etiologies for NVP include the hormonal changes associated with pregnancy, the physiologic changes in the gastrointestinal tract, and a genetic predisposition. Up to 10% of women will require pharmacotherapy to treat the symptoms of NVP despite conservative measures. ACOG currently recommends that a combination of oral pyridoxine hydrochloride and doxylamine succinate be used as first-line treatment for NVP if pyridoxine monotherapy does not relieve symptoms. A review of NVP and early pharmacotherapeutic management is presented due to the fact that NVP is largely undertreated, and investigations into the safe and effective pharmacotherapies available to treat NVP are lacking.

Introduction: Caring for acute odontogenic cellulitis involves drainage, treatment of the tooth and the administration of antibiotic therapy (ANSM 2011). The emergence of bacterial resistance mechanisms has led to formulating actions to promote better use of antibiotics, but France stay one of the largest consumers in Europe. Objectives: Evaluate the impact of ANSM's recommendations on dental surgeons in France for treatment of this affection. Methods: We performed a national survey with 12365 practitioners who received the questionnaire by email. Results: On 690 responder practitioners, 13% followed the recommendations to the letter and 70.5% performed a clinical intervention on the day of emergency. Only 1/3 of cases involved the prescription of amoxicillin alone for first line treatment. Conclusion: Few data exist on the evaluation of the impact of recommendations regarding this subject, but it is generally accepted it they are seldom followed. The reasons expressed are many: disagreement between practitioners on the efficiency of recommendations, lack of time and organizational constraints.
