Summary

A recent internal study evaluating the relevance of the visit to traumatology consultation in our establishment highlight that 49.3% of consultations were not relevant passages. The project consists of individualizing 5 to 6 pathologies and to create care sheets and patient sheets to be given to the care teams and patients when the pathology lends itself to it. The aim is to reduce the irrelevant passage rate during these consultations, which is the source of absence from iterative work for parents, collateral expenses (toll, parking), absence from school for the children, unjustified expenses and X-ray examination unnecessary most often.

Detailed description

The Pediatric Orthopedics and Traumatology department proposes a reform of the care in Traumatology of the children in order to improve and homogenize the care for a better relevance of these. A recent internal study (June 2018) evaluating the relevance of the visit to traumatology consultation in our establishment to highlight that 49.3% of consultations were not relevant passages (Benign diseases of sprained ankle type, muscular contusion or simple bone removals). Indeed, these specialist consultations are currently filled by pathologies of simple treatment that do not require medical follow-up (neither clinical nor radiological follow-up). The project consists of individualizing 5 to 6 pathologies found in consultation recurrently which the scientific literature has established that their follow-up is not justified, and to create care sheets and patient sheets to be given to the care teams and patients when the pathology lends itself to it. These cards will include all the management of the pathology of the definition itself, including the treatment and expected outcomes. The aim is to reduce the irrelevant passage rate during these consultations, which is the source of absence from iterative work for parents, collateral expenses (toll, parking), absence from school for the children, unjustified expenses and X-ray examination unnecessary most often. The expected benefit is parental and child satisfaction, a time saving for the practitioner that he can reinvest in consultations for patients who are in fact a specialist opinion and a relative budget saving for the establishment. The method of study of the decline of irrelevant consultations will be made by a systematic review of each reason for consultation over a period of 3 months after implementation of the cards and study of the percentage of irrelevant consultation over the same period. The objective pursued is a drop in attendance of at least 25% of consultations deemed irrelevant in Traumatology, associated with a satisfaction rate of parents greater than 90%.
