GCS Survey: "GHB IN CHEMICAL SUBMISSION: MYTH OR REALITY?"

Summary

According to the media, GHB is the main substance used for chemical submission. The national survey conducted by the Addictovigilance centre of Paris on drug-facilitated assaults shows that GHB is used, but only in a very small proportion of cases. However, the short detection times for this substance point to its possible under-detection (06-09h in blood, 10-12h in urine). A pilot research protocol in Ile de France focusing on capillary analysis is therefore being proposed to volunteer victims to overcome this bias and answer this question: is the massive use of GHB in chemical submission a myth or a reality?

Conditions

  • CHEMICAL SUBMISSION

Interventions

OTHER

Capillary analysis

Samples taken between 2 and 6 months after the presumed events. A pre-analytical treatment of the hair (washing, fragmentation), followed by detection by high-resolution mass spectrometry is carried out by an expert laboratory to search for both GHB and psychoactive drugs.
