Uvod: Anksiolitici su jedni od najčešće propisivanih lijekova te su veoma popularni zbog svoje široke terapijske primjene. Cilj: Cilj je ispitati učestalost korištenja anksiolitika kod studenata medicine.Metode: U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 222 studenata od 1. do 6. godine Studija medicine na Medicinskom fakultetu Osijek rješavajući anonimni upitnik. Rezultati: Od 222 studenata 19,5 % koristilo je benzodiazepin. Djevojke ih koriste značajno češće od muškaraca. Najčešće indikacije za korištenje su osjećaj tjeskobe i anksioznost. Najčešće korišten benzodiazepin je alprazolam. Najviše ih koriste studenti 6. godine medicine, dok ih studenti 1. godine ne koriste.Razlozi za korištenje razlikuju se prema godinama studiranja; glavni razlog korištenja na 3. godini je nadolazeći ispit, dok su na 5. i 6. godini razlozi uzimanja benzodiazepina obiteljski i ljubavni problemi. Jednom u više mjeseci benzodiazepine koristi 59,1 % studenata, dok ih 5 % koristi svaki dan, 20,9 % studenata koristi i smatra korisnima biljne preparate za smirenje. Pomoć stručnjaka za svoje probleme potražilo je 32,6 % studenata koji su koristili benzodiazepine, dok ih je 41,9 % o tome razmišljalo. Zaključci: Unatoč tome što su studenti medicine izloženi velikom stresu te anksiolitike koriste češće nego opća populacija, njihova je uporaba racionalna i kontrolirana. / Introduction: Anxiolytics are one of the most prescribed drugs due to their wide therapeutic use. Aims: Our goal is to examine the frequency of anxiolytics use in medical students. Materials and methods: 222 medical students from 1st to 6th year at the Faculty of Medicine in Osijek participated in the research by solving an anonymous questionnaire. Results: Of the 222 students, 19.5% used anxiolytics. Women use them significantly more than men. The most common indication for use is anxiety. The most used benzodiazepine is alprazolam. They are mostly used by 6th-year medical students. Reasons for benzodiazepine use vary depending on the year of study; 3rd-year students use benzodiazepines due to upcoming exams, while for the 5th and 6th year students, family and love problems are more
<p>Pheochromocytoma is a rare cause of hypertension in pregnancy. Unrecognized, it carries a great risk for both mother and the foetus. The main reason for missing the diagnosis is the misconception that any hypertension occurring in pregnancy is gestational hypertension or pre (eclampsia). As many as 90% of patients report one or more pheochromocytoma-related symptoms antenatally, but the diagnosis is made in 75% of patients, meaning that 3 out of 10 patients are diagnosed after childbirth or post-mortem. The symptoms are similar to other more common causes of hypertension in pregnancy, which presents a major diagnostic challenge. The diagnosis is based on determination of metanephrines in plasma or 24-hour urine. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound (US) are used to localize the tumour. If the diagnosis is made before the 24th week of pregnancy, laparoscopic removal of the tumour in the second trimester is recommended. If diagnosed later, the tumour could be removed during or after delivery. Preoperative preparation with alpha blockers is required to stabilize blood pressure. The decision on the mode of delivery depends on several factors, so an experienced multidisciplinary team is needed to minimize maternal and foetal mortality.</p>
