How many young people were hospitalised due to alcohol consumption?

According to the latest figures, fewer young people in Germany have had to be hospitalised for alcohol. DP MPs André Bauler and Gilles Baum asked the Minister of Health how many young people have been hospitalised for alcohol consumption in recent years, on which days of the year a particularly high number of drunk people are hospitalised and whether the National Action Plan against Alcohol Abuse will be renewed.

Question

« La presse allemande vient d’annoncer que le nombre d’adolescents alcoolisés qui ont dû être hospitalisés est en nette baisse. Ainsi, par exemple, le nombre de cas aurait baissé de 28% de 2022 à 2023. 

Voilà pourquoi nous aimerions poser les questions suivantes à Madame la Ministre de la Santé et de la Sécurité sociale :

  • Combien de patients ont été hospitalisés en raison d’une consommation excessive d’alcool depuis l’an 2018? 
  • Parmi la population de personnes alcoolisées ayant dû être hospitalisées, comment a évolué la part des jeunes ? 
  • Quelles sont les journées de l’année durant lesquelles l’on enregistre des pics de personnes hospitalisées sous l’emprise de l’alcool?
  • De 2020 à 2024, le Plan d’Action Luxembourgeois de réduction du Mésusage de l’Alcool (PALMA) était en vigueur. Le Gouvernement va-t-il renouveler ce plan d’action ? »

Which doctors will be on board SAMU vehicles in future?

In Luxembourg, anaesthetists and anaesthesia and intensive care nurses have until now been on board SAMU vehicles. However, DP MPs Corinne Cahen and Carole Hartmann have learned that, in future, GPs or emergency doctors could also be taken on board instead of anaesthetists. The MPs asked the ministers concerned why until now only anaesthetists have been on board SAMU vehicles, whether anaesthesia and intensive care nurses could also form an emergency team with other doctors, and whether the quality of care, regardless of the doctor’s specialisation, would still be guaranteed.
