BACKGROUND: Pruritus is a common problem in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and haemodialysis patients. There are few studies on the clinical characteristics of uremic itch, the cause of which is still unknown. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to define the prevalence and clinical characteristics of pruritus in CAPD and haemodialysis patients. METHODS: A questionnaire was used to evaluate pruritus in 52 CAPD and 289 haemodialysis patients in two dialysis units. The relationship of various factors and medical parameters to itch was examined. RESULTS: Of the 341 patients, 177 (51.9%) had pruritus at the time of examination, 97 (28.4%) had pruritus in the past. Pruritus was present in 145 (50.2%) of the haemodialysis patients and 32 (61.5%) of the CAPD patients. Men, patients with liver disease, and patients with pruritus before starting dialysis treatment were more likely to have uremic pruritus. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed us that uremic pruritus was observed more in men than women. The high prevalence of uremic pruritus in our study does not support the decrease of pruritus due to an improvement in the management of dialysis patients. 相似文献

Uremic pruritus is one of the most prevalent and bothersome dermatologic symptoms in patients with end-stage renal disease. Some studies suggest a possible neuropathic cause of uremic pruritus. Gabapentin, an anticonvulsant, may control pruritus with neuropathic origin. The objectives of this study were to assess the efficacy of gabapentin in reducing pruritus scores of patients with uremic pruritus and evaluate its safety among dialysis patients. Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials, using gabapentin as treatment for uremic pruritus among hemodialysis patients was included and analyzed using Review Manager Version 5.1.4 software. Seven out of 17 screened articles were included, with a total of 315 participants. Meta-analysis of the incidence of improved pruritus scores after treatment from four studies (n = 171) showed that treatment with gabapentin decreased the severity of uremic pruritus as compared to the placebo (risk ratio = 0.18; 95% confidence interval: 0.09, 0.33; I2 = 4%: P =< 0.00001). Six studies (n = 290) presented with incidence of adverse drug events such as dizziness, drowsiness, and somnolence. In the pooled analysis, treatment with gabapentin was associated with a higher incidence of adverse drug events compared to the comparator drugs, but the results were not significant (risk ratio = 1.3, 95% confidence interval: 0.81, 2.11; P = 0.28, I2 = 37%). The results of this systematic review suggest that gabapentin is efficacious and safe in improving uremic pruritus among dialysis patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Two recent studies have provided opposite results on the efficacy of naltrexone on uremic pruritus. We have performed a third study. OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy and tolerance of naltrexone and loratadine in uremic pruritus. PATIENTS/METHODS: Among 296 hemodialyzed patients, 65 suffered from uremic pruritus. Fifty-two patients participated in the study. The patients were treated for 2 weeks with naltrexone (50 mg/day; 26 patients) or loratadine (10 mg/day; 26 patients), after a washout of 48 h. Pruritus intensity was scored by a visual analogue scale (VAS). Adverse events were carefully searched for. The two groups were statistically equivalent. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the mean VAS scores after treatment, but naltrexone allowed a dramatic decrease in VAS scores (Delta >3/10) in 7 patients. Adverse events (mainly nausea and sleep disturbances) were observed in 10/26 patients. CONCLUSIONS: Naltrexone is effective only in a subset of patients. Adverse events are very frequent. The differences of efficacy and tolerance between patients might be due to metabolism. Naltrexone might be considered as a second-line treatment. 相似文献

Background
Uremic pruritus is acommonsymptom in chronic renal failure patients with undefined pathophysiology. Initial treatment involves topical therapy mainly in the form of moisturizers, however, in many cases, this is not sufficient to relieve itching. Systemic adjuvant therapy is therefore necessary, which commonly includes oral antihistamines, with limited success. Positive effects have been reported for gabapentin.Objectives
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of gabapentin vs. dexchlorpheniramine in reducing uremic pruritus.Materials & Methods
A randomized, controlled, double-blinded clinical trial for haemodialysis patients with persistent pruritus was performed. Pre-randomisation, cold cream was used for 15 days by 71 participants. Those with pruritus who remained in the study (60 patients) were randomised to receive gabapentin (30 patients; GABA group) or dexchlorpheniramine (30 patients;DEXgroup) for 21 days. The primary outcomewas the decrease in pruritus score and improvement in quality of life.Results
After cold cream use, the participants demonstrated a 37.5% median reduction in Visual Analogue Scale (p<0.01) and a 50% reduction in Quality of Life in Dermatology (DLQI) score (p<0.01). There was an additional reduction of pruritus in both groups (p<0.01), with no difference between the two (p>0.7). The median DLQI was reduced from 2 to 1 in the GABA group and from 2 to 0 in the DEX group. Nineteen patients (32%) reported mild/moderate side effects without differences between the groups.Conclusions
Uremic pruritus was reduced upon treatment with gabapentin or dexchlorpheniramine with good safety profiles; no difference was observed between the two treatments.12.

BACKGROUND: Estimation of skin diseases in the community is challenging because we do not easily have access to the nonhealthcare-seeking population. A potential tool is a questionnaire asking for self-reported skin complaints. Such an instrument has not yet been developed. OBJECTIVES: To validate a simple instrument assessing skin morbidity in the general adult population, to predict clinical skin morbidity from self-reported skin complaints. METHODS: A questionnaire was drawn up in Norwegian and validated against clinical signs in two samples of an urban population, 100 healthcare-seeking adults in a dermatological clinic, and 100 nonhealthcare-seeking adults. A total self-reported score was calculated and validated against severity of clinical signs (no sign, trivial, moderate or severe). The inter-rater agreement was assessed in a small study including 16 patients from a dermatological clinic. RESULTS: The participation rate was 98%. The sensitivity was 61%, the specificity 69% and the positive predictive value 82% when the caseness criterion was any clinical sign of skin disease. The agreement was good between the two observers for clinical skin morbidity, with kappa = 0.67. CONCLUSIONS: This questionnaire is a simple tool to evaluate skin morbidity in an adult population. The use of self-reported complaints to predict clinical morbidity may be of value in quantifying and exploring skin diseases at the population level. Further studies are needed to improve the instrument. It is our intention to demonstrate the potential usefulness of this questionnaire in a forthcoming population survey in Norway. 相似文献

Generalised pruritus and acquired perforating dermatosis occurring in chronic kidney disease are not uncommon and are often debilitating. However, treatment options are limited. We present two patients with uremic pruritus and acquired perforating dermatosis who were successfully treated with amitriptyline. 相似文献
