Colique néphrétique : comment calmer et optimiser l’expulsion ? Quelle prise en charge chez la femme enceinte et l’enfant ?
2021
Introduction The aims of this narrative review was to report on the contemporary data of renal colic (RC) in terms of epidemiology and pressure on emergency structures and also to describe the latest therapeutic developments about uncomplicated RC, depending on the pediatric, adult and pregnancy population. Material and methods A request to the health surveillance network for emergencies and deaths (SurSaUD®, Sante Publique France) revealed original data on the contemporary epidemiology of renal colic. A narrative synthesis of the articles (French, English) available on the Pubmed database was produced in June 2021. Results Renal colic represents 1.1% of the annual total of emergency room visits. The mean age at admission was 45 years and 62% of patients were men. NSAIDs and Paracetamol are the most effective analgesic treatments and should be given priority over opioids. Non-drug analgesic treatments by tactile stimulation probably have a place in the CN management, particularly in case of contraindications. Among the validated treatments, alphablockers allow better expulsion when the stone is located in the pelvic ureter and if its size is between 5 and 10mm in diameter. In pregnant women, the predominant problem is to confirm the diagnostic. If there is a strong suspicion, MRI or a low-dose CT scan is possible. Ureteroscopy is feasible in particular in the first part of pregnancy to avoid iterative ureteral catheter changes. The care for children is now based on that of adults. Conclusion The renal colic care pathway in 2021 can benefit from various optimizations in the field of expulsion and analgesic treatments. Good knowledge of the specific situations in pregnant women and children allowing to improve the quality of care.
