dc.description.abstract | ABSTRACT. Introduction. In our society drug use is associated
with a high burden of morbidity and mortality.1
Several indicators
are agreed at EU level for epidemiological surveillance.2
Data on
trends in substance use and related problems are offered through
the triangulation of these indicators. First treatment onset episodes for substance use disorder (SUD) is one of the main indirect
indicators to monitor this phenomenon.3,4
Material and methods. Data were obtained from the notification of beginnings of treatment for SUD with potential for abuse
and addiction in outpatient centres for drug dependence care and
follow-up (CAS). Information on other drug dependence services
is also included.
Results. During 2017, 13,716 outpatient starts of treatment were
notified for SUD in Catalonia. Primary substances of abuse reported in treatment admission were alcohol (43.4%), cocaine (22.2%),
heroin (12.8%), and cannabis derivatives (12.4%). The average age
of the reported cases was 41.2 years and 22.2% of cases were women. 33.6% of people who started treatment in 2017 were unemployed and 10.5% had not completed primary education.
In 2017 there were 974 admissions in hospital detoxification units
and by the end of the year there were 7,482 people in methadone
maintenance treatment programmes. Supervised drug consumption rooms hosted almost 125,000 consumptions, and more than
875,000 sterile syringes were provided by the needle and syringe
programme. |
