16 what are the causes how should we investigate and manage generalised pruritus in the elderly?
17 Sensation in skin provoking a desire to scratch This is often an extremely unpleasant sensation that disturbs sleep and can cause low mood.
18 May have developed in evolutionary terms from need to rid skin of parasites Scabies is a common cause of itching in elderly in UK in care homes Most people who itch do not have parasitic diseases
19 Causes of itchy skin Skin disease -look for signs, and inaccessible area such as small of back Skin disease with no signs - itch may precede rash e.g. in pemphigoid, so keep looking Medications e.g. opiates, statins, digoxin, chloroquine, clonidine, quinidine, gold, lithium, ACE inhibitors. Only way to establish if this is the cause is trial off the medication, needs to be for a month. Systemic disease Psychogenic e.g. delusional parasitosis, anxiety/depression. Willan s Itch/Senile Pruritus diagnosis of exclusion
20 Systemic dis causing itchy skin chronic renal failure, biliary obstruction (cholestasis), iron deficiency, thyroid dysfuncion, malignancy (hypercalcaemia, lymphoma, leucaemia, myeloma), diabetes, polycythymia.
21 FBC U&E Gluc Ca Fe, ferritin TSH LFT?HIV?CXR CPR Immunogloculins Plasma electrophoresis
22 Cause of Senile Pruritus?dryness skin of skin older skin is thinner/ has poorer barrier function, has altered water and lipid content, and reduced sebum and sweat production Pain/itch nerve fibres deteriorate with age which may lead to spontaneous activity
23 Management Treat underlying cause General measures Symptomatic treatment
24 General measures Advice not to scratch, keep finger nails short Keep cool avoid over clothing, hot bath. Shorten water (bath/shower) contact time, avoid soaps/alcohol cleansers/wet wipes
25 Symptomatic treatment - topical agents (NB physical compliance) Emollient, 1% menthol in aqueous (Dermacool), To consider but often impractical Calamine messy, BNF often ineffective Eurax 100ml/g, BNF uncertain value Doxepin 30g = > 10, risks sensitisation, burning. Capsaicin- 45g= >15 can burn, indic for neuralgia - oral meds - Anti-dep: amitriptyline, doxepin, mirtazapine, SSRIs anticonvulsants: gabapentin/pregabalin
26 Other options Phototherapy Behavioural therapy the Ezcema solution = breaking itch scratch cycle
27 Excoriations Lichenification Lichen simplex chronicus Purpura Disturbed sleep Depression
28 Nodular prurigo

30 Skin of 13 elderly patients with itching and no rash was compared to age and sex-matched controls Itchy people perceived their skin to be drier (VAS) Degree of dryness correlated with severity of itch Itchy cases had decreased skin surface conductance and increased intracorneal adhesion Long et al J Am Acad Dermatol 1992; 27: 560-4
31 Altered water and lipid content Stratum corneum forms poor barrier Reduced sebum and sweat production External influences eg excessive washing, detergents and soaps, ph, low humidity,

51 The more drugs, the more likely Most suspected drug eruptions referred are not actually drug eruptions
52 In the UK, where older people make up a fifth of the population but consume almost half of prescription items Adults aged >65 years take a mean of two daily prescribed drugs. In the >75 years age group living in the UK, this mean daily drug usage increases to 2.5.

61 Pemphigus vulgaris Less common More difficult to treat Usually affects mucosal surfaces
62
63 Diagnosis by biopsy (with perilesional immunofluorescence) Treatment with systemic steroids Alternatives are high dose tetracyclines ± nictotinamide, potent topical steroids Pain relief/ dressings Aspirate blisters
64 Viral: herpes zoster, papilloma virus, HIV Fungal: superficial and deep Bacteria: wounds and MRSA, cellulitis Infestations: scabies
65 Incidence increases with age Lifetime risk 50% in over 85s rate per 1000 person-years < >60 age group Schmader Clin J Pain 2002; 18: 350-4
