Cystitis Acute Clinical Trial
Official title:
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Application of a Protocol for the Management of Female Functional Urinary Signs in French Community Pharmacies
Every year, between 4 and 6 million French people are affected by a urinary infection; the vast majority of these are women. Although the diagnosis of an uncomplicated urinary tract infection is simple to make, it requires prompt medical management to relieve the symptoms. The lack of immediate of a physician can slow down the management of patients affected by this condition, and lead to an inappropriate referral of patients to the emergency services. Because of their wide availability, accessibility, and geographical distribution throughout the country, pharmacists are primary health care professionals who are regularly called upon to respond to patients with this type of infection. A national protocol exists in France, but it is very difficult to apply. The PharmaCyst' study aims to evaluate its application in community pharmacies.
