Evaluation of the Rate of Consultations in Gynecological Emergencies Under "Non-urgent" Management

Completed

• Conditions: Gynecologic Disease

• Registration Number: NCT05325619
• Lead Sponsor: Fondation Hôpital Saint-Joseph

Brief Summary

The difference between the demand and the current medical supply poses a real public health problem in terms of the organization of health care systems.

For several years in France, there has been an increase in the number of consultations in emergency services, particularly gynaecological ones. The two causes put forward are a change in user behavior with an increase in requests for rapid but "non-urgent" care and the inadequacy of the supply of care in the private sector.

Few studies have been carried out concerning gynaecological emergencies, unlike general emergencies.

The aim of this study is to measure the frequency of consultations in gynaecological emergencies for non-emergency reasons.

The interest of this study is therefore mainly on the optimization of the care system with the emphasis on the city-hospital network in the management of these patients.
