epidemiology and prognosis of patients with
postoperative delirium
Delirium is a common
and devastating complication after surgery especially in
older patients. It is associated with increased morbidity,
mortality, longer hospitalization and higher health care
costs. Delirium is a multi-factorial syndrome with unclear
mechanisms. There is currently no approved pharmacological
therapy for the prevention and treatment of delirium in the
postoperative period. Non-pharmacological approach should
target potentially modifiable risk factors as sleep
deprivation, pain, hearing and visual impairment, immobility
and overuse of medications associated with delirium.
]
Dr C Pomfrett - "The Vagus Nerve - a window
on Consciousness and Disease"
[The
vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) connects our brainstem to the
body, facilitating monitoring and control of many automatic
functions; the vagus electrically links our gut, lungs and
heart to the base of the brain in an evolutionarily-ancient
circuit, similar between mammals and also seen in birds,
reptiles, and amphibians. In many ways the vagus can be
compared to the USB or Firewire connection of your computer.
The vagus comprises a major part of the parasympathetic
autonomic nervous system, contributing to the motor control
of important physiological functions such as heart rate and
gut motility. The vagus is also sensory, relaying
protective visceral information leading to reflexes like
cough and indication of lung volume. The vagus has been
described as a neural component of the immune reflex. By
monitoring changes in the level of control exerted by the
vagus, apparent as beat by beat changes of heart rate, it is
possible to indirectly view the effect of pharmaceuticals
and disease on brainstem function and neural processes
underlying consciousness. The paired vagus nerves of humans
have different functions, and stimulation of the left vagus
has been shown to be a therapeutic treatment for epilepsy,
and may modulate the perception of pain.]
Dr N Stanley - "What's new in sleep?"
[Good
sleep is important for us all but especially the healthcare
environment from its importance in keeping patients well and
helping them get better to the part in can play in stopping
Doctors killing patients, or killing themselves. This talk
will provide an update on the latest findings concerning the
benefits of sleep to good physical, mental and emotional
health and may just help you and your patients live longer.

"Long-term consequences of early
institutional deprivation – overview of findings from the
English and Romanian Adoptees (ERA) study"
[The English and Romanian
Adoptees (ERA) study is a longitudinal study investigating
children adopted from highly depriving Romanian institutions
into the UK in the early 1990s. The ERA study is a natural
experiment that allows the examination of the effects of
sudden, precisely timed, and radical change from a
profoundly depriving environment to a somewhat above-average
one in the adoptive families. Over the past 15 years, the
effects of early institutional deprivation on a wide range
of developmental outcomes have been studied. This talk will
give an overview of the findings, with a focus on
psychological impairments, effects on brain structure and
function, and the moderating role of genetic factors.]

Symposium "Evolving Issues and Controversies in Medical
Practice"
Dr R Zimmern -
“Genomics & public health: What the future
really holds”
[Dr Zimmern will focus on the impact of genomic science and
personalised medicine on the practice of public health.
The hype will be distinguished from the reality.
Issues of how public health, conventionally a collectivist
activity, will need to change to adapt to a more
individualistic approach to medical practice will be
discussed.]
Professor Sir Nicholas Wright - "Stem cell research: who
are the beneficiaries?"
[With the establishment
of human embryonic stem cell lines, 'therapeutic cloning',
the process of creating genetically identical cells for
therapeutic purposes becomes possible: 'reproductive
cloning' - creating an individual organism that is
genetically identical - could be a possibility.
However, the derivation of such cells from human embryos
raises the question of who will benefit from this research.
There are several potential beneficiaries - and the patient
is only one of these.]
Professor Sir Michael Rawlins -
“Pitfalls in assessing the benefits and harms
of therapeutic interventions”
[The assessment of the benefits and harms of therapeutic
interventions requires the totality of the evidence base to
be considered. This includes observational, as well as
experimental, studies; and requires the exercise of both
scientific skill and judgement if patients are to be treated
appropriately. There is no place for the thoughtless use of
'hierarchies' of evidence.]

Professor M A O Lewis -
"Watch Out, Bugs About! The basis of decontamination in
the dental surgery"
[The recognition that
potentially pathogenic infections may be transferred from
patient to healthcare worker or vice-versa or from patient
to patient during the delivery of dental healthcare has
resulted in the need for all members of the dental team to
have an appropriate appreciation of potential hazards in the
clinic and the need for adequate infection control.
This lecture will describe the range of bacteria, viruses
and proteins that may be encountered within the mouth and
represent potential risk of infection.
An outline of the practices
and procedures recommended for dentistry, in particular
those aspects of decontamination described in HTM 01-05,
will be presented. In addition the talk will give an
overview of other practical aspects of infection control,
such as hand washing, aerosols, impressions, inoculation
injury and single-use items.]

Dr R D G Neely -
"Familial
hypercholesterol-aemia: Guidelines and
Strategies for Identification and Treatment"
[Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is an inherited
metabolic disorder with an estimated population prevalence
of 1 in 500 in the UK, or approximately 120,000 cases in the
UK, of whom probably less than 15000 have been diagnosed.
In affected individuals, concentrations of harmful (atherogenic)
LDL-cholesterol in the blood are typically doubled from
birth leading to early development of advanced
atherosclerosis. Without treatment, affected men will
frequently develop symptoms of coronary heart disease before
40 years and half will be symptomatic by the age of 50
years. In women a similar proportion are symptomatic by 60
years. The clinical expression of FH is affected by dietary
and lifestyle factors and those with FH living in the North
of England may do particularly badly as the problem is
exacerbated by the high content of saturated fatty acids in
the diet and the high prevalence of smoking.
Most individuals with FH have an alteration in the LDL
receptor gene, inherited as an autosomal dominant trait
which means that each of their first degree relatives
(parents, siblings and children) have a 50% chance of also
being affected. With early intervention and careful follow
up to ensure concordance with treatment the excess coronary
heart disease risk and premature mortality associated with
FH can effectively be eliminated. The NICE FH Guideline
(CG71) recommends genetic testing of relatives of
individuals known to have FH which is the most
cost-effective strategy for early identification of affected
individuals, leading to effective treatment through diet,
lifestyle interventions and cholesterol lowering drugs.
Despite evidence in its favour, this strategy has not yet
been commissioned in England, however programmes have been
funded in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. ]

SECTION
OF PSYCHIATRY
Symposium "Mind the gap: collaborative
approaches to mental health across primary and secondary
care"
Professor S Gilbody
- "Working collaboratively at the primary-secondary care
interface: what works?"
[Improvements
in the management of common mental disorders (CMDs) requires
primary and secondary care services to work together in a
coherent manner. There are several ways in which they might
do this. In order to decide which, we started several years
ago to make sense of a complex research literature using
various forms of ‘evidence synthesis’.
We
have considered and rejected a number of options, including:
consultation liaison, pure GP education and the wholesale
referral of large populations of people with CMDs into
secondary care. The most effective and efficient method
seems to be ‘collaborative care’. Few people had heard of
this approach five years ago, but there is an increasing
recognition that this is the most promising model of working
at the primary care interface.
Simon Gilbody has, with colleagues, produced some the most
widely-cited summaries of this evidence. He works as a
Psychiatrist and is Professor of Health Services Research at
the University of York. He will provide an overview of
collaborative care and the seminal studies that could inform
UK practice for the next ten years.]

The group has overseen the development of guidelines for

and Secondary Care. Issues that have arisen re communication
between Primary and Secondary Care, potential solutions and
also how to engage successfully with SMI patients and their

[2011
will mark the beginning of a new era of anticoagulant
therapy. Prevention and treatment of thrombosis are central
to clinical care in modern medicine with prevention of
hospital-acquired thrombosis at the top of the patient
safety agenda and more than 1 in 100 of the general UK
population now taking oral anticoagulant drugs. The new
anticoagulant drugs offer the promise of improved efficacy,
ease of use and reduced bleeding complications. However, the
expanding repertoire of oral and parenteral agents will
result in an unprecedented educational need for doctors,
nurses and pharmacists as well as implications for patient
education, concordance and compliance and new issues
relating to clinical management and safety. The presentation
will answer the following questions:
 |
what is the 'gold standard
of care' with heparin and warfarin and just how good are
they?
|
 |
what do we want from new
anticoagulants?
|
 |
what is going to be
available?
|
 |
how do the new drugs work
and what is the implication of different mechanisms for
treatment choice, dosing, bleeding risk, interruption
and reversal of therapy?] |
