Filter by:"Main objective: to demonstrate that the implementation of an extended panel solution for the point of care analysis of biological parameters (point of care : POC) in an emergency department (ED) reduces the length of stay (LOS) of patients Secondary objectives: to demonstrate the feasibility of implementing an expanded panel of POC solutions in an ED and the reduction of emergency overcrowding in the POC group. To determine the medico-economic impact of the extended implementation of POC solutions (cost-efficiency and health-economic study), to collect the satisfaction of medical (emergency physicians, medical biologists) and paramedical personnel as well as the satisfaction of patients. Inclusion criteria: Any patient consulting in the emergency department during the study period Non-inclusion criteria: Patients attending the emergency departments as part of dressing or trauma follow-up consultations Main criteria of judgment: Time between administrative registration and the patient's discharge or hospitalization decision, compared between the control period and the intervention period (POC). Design: Prospective, monocentric, controlled, cluster- randomized per week. Duration of center preparation (technical preparation and training of laboratory staff): 4 weeks Duration of inclusion period: 18 weeks Duration of patient participation: 1 day Total trial duration time: 22 weeks"
The investigators would like to include patients consulting in a Accident and Emergency Department (AED) during the permanence of care the week of March 11 to 17, 2018. The data collection would concern socio-demographic data, their consultation to the AED, the follow-up given to the consultation and would take place by telephone contact of patients within 48 hours of the consultation. why patients come to the emergency room, what are they waiting for? what are their main motivations? what do they do in emergencies, do they follow the treatments and recommendations?
The long-term goal of this project is to promote responsible opioid prescribing, immediately improving patient safety and ultimately decreasing healthcare costs by reducing older adult morbidity and mortality due to opioid-related injury. The objective of this pilot project is to gather data to inform the development of the STOP Injury tool and evaluate additional predictive factors and important outcomes relevant to prescription opioids.
The objective of this study is to to understand the most effective method for health-related social need (HRSN) screening in the challenging environment of an emergency department by randomizing patients to oral or written HRSN screening in the ED.
The performance of STIs and clinical scores alone and their combination to predict short term prognosis of acute decompensated heart failure.
This project focuses on patients in AED. Objectives of this project are: 1. To examine the factors associated with alcohol drinking and alcohol use disorder 2. To examine the effect of face-to-face alcohol brief intervention on drinking reduction 3. To examine the effect of a continuous interactive chat-based intervention via "WhatsApp" on drinking reduction 4. To explore the perception of face-to-face alcohol brief intervention 5. To explore the perception of continuous interactive chat-based intervention via instant messaging mobile application "WhatsApp"
This study seeks to test standard and behavioral economic-enhanced training strategies to bolster first-time Emergency Department-initiated buprenorphine-naloxone administration among Emergency Department providers.
The purpose of this pharmacokinetic (PK) study was to evaluate if a double dose (3 mg) of levonorgestrel (LNG) overcomes known drug-drug interactions (DDIs) with efavirenz (EFV)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) or rifampicin (RIF)-containing tuberculosis (TB) therapy. The safety of double-dose (3.0 mg) LNG versus standard-dose (1.5 mg) was also compared.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficiency of emergency procedures and patient satisfaction within the GHPS (Groupe Hospitalier Pitié Salpêtrière) Dental Emergency Department. Pain is the main reason of consultation at dental emergency. The investigators evaluate the pain felt before and after the intervention of the emergency with questionnaires at the day of the consultation (D0), then with phone interviews at D1, D3 and D7. The investigators also evaluate the quality of the reception and care provided in the GHPS service using a satisfaction questionnaire completed by the patients at D0.
This project aims to deliver an evidence-based smoking cessation intervention comprising the provision of brief cessation advice to smokers attending emergency departments and active referral to existing smoking cessation services. The objectives are as follows: 1. To promote this evidence-based project to emergency departments in various hospitals under the Hospital Authority 2. To construct a network with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to provide smoking cessation services 3. To train healthcare professionals to use the AWARD model to deliver brief cessation advice to smokers 4. To deliver brief cessation advice via healthcare professionals and actively refer smokers to existing smoking cessation services.
