#cardiacarrest #australia 💔 A third of cardiac arrest patients have positive toxicology assessment results for drug use. The investigators analysed data from a statewide registry on patients aged 18–50 years who experienced out-of-hospital SCD between April 2019 and April 2021 in Victoria, Australia (population 6.5 million). Toxicology assessment results were available for nearly all patients, 32.5% of which were positive for drug use. Previous estimates of drug use in Australia had ranged from approximately 16% overall to 19% for those aged 14-49. Lead investigator Elizabeth D. Paratz, MBBS, PhD, FRACP, Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute, noted, “As clinicians in Melbourne, we frequently see complications of illicit drug use in young people. We noticed a consistent trend of illicit drugs involved in our registry’s young SCD cohort and were very keen to tease this out further. We found the prevalence of illicit drug use in young SCD patients was astonishingly high at almost one in three cases and exceeds reported rates in the young population.
Let's use the power of social media to raise awareness about this issue. Share this post to inform your friends and loved ones about the risks associated with illicit drug use and its potential link to fatal cardiac arrest. #SCAFoundation #CardiacArrest https://bit.ly/SCAF4

Bold, results-driven leader in Managed Care, Cost Containment, TPA Operations, Workers' Compensation and P&C
To these solutions I would suggest adding another: the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), the Department of Justice, and other federal agencies should work with other federal and non-federal partners to reinstate and enhance the Arrestee Drug Abuse Monitoring survey (ADAM).

The International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, or #WorldDrugDay, is marked on June 26th every year to strengthen action and cooperation in achieving a world free of #drugabuse. This year’s World Drug Day campaign theme is “The evidence is clear: invest in prevention," and recognizes that effective drug policies must be rooted in science, research, full respect for human rights, compassion, and a deep understanding of the social, economic, and health implications of drug use. The global #drug problem presents a multifaceted challenge that touches the lives of millions worldwide. From individuals struggling with #substanceuse disorders to communities grappling with the consequences of drug trafficking and organized crime, the impact of drugs is far-reaching and complex. Together, we can amplify our efforts to combat the global drug problem, guided by the principles of science, compassion, and solidarity. Through collective action and a commitment to evidence-based solutions, we can create a world where individuals are empowered to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.

Website from the CDC with general info, links and resources related to substance abuse and overdose prevention. On International Overdose Awareness Day. Take a moment to Remember loved ones who have died from drug overdose and acknowledge the grief of the family and communities left behind. We should also take a moment to acknowledge all the countless lives lost to drug overdose, of those we didn’t know. Their lives were equally important to the families & communities they also left behind. #overdoseawareness #substanceusrdisorder #opioidcrisis #crisisresponse
