Résumé : |
ENGLISH : A study covering six years of treatment at our centre was dedicated to 570 patients addicted to prohibited (because illegal) drugs; those patients were enrolled in the period April 1995 - April 2001. Group A results are those for 284 addicts treated with methadone, while those for group B refer to the comprehensive treatment outcomes for all 570 addicts enrolled there in that period. Patients in group A had an average age of 26 years, and an average daily methadone dose of 80 mg, the following infections were recorded: 21 patients (7.4%) had the hepatitis B virus ; 105 (36.9%) had the hepatitis C virus ; no patients (0%) had the HIV virus . For 16 patients (5.6%) the results are unknown. Analysis of the cause of death within this population shows approximately the same percentage (1.4%) for each of the four items: suicide, overdose, violent death and traffic accident. In April 2001 164 addicts were being treated in the methadone maintenance programme (VMP). In the larger group, B (n=570, all the addicts treated), the average age was 24 years, with percentages for infection with HBV, MCV and HIV below those for addicts in VMP. For 109 patients (19%), the results are unknown. Comorbidity was frequent; it involved 178 of these patients (37%): 115 patients were diagnosed as having personality problems (20%) and 58 (10%) as having endogenous psychic diseases.
