Impact of Six Patient Information Leaflets (PIL) on Doctor Patient Communication and Adherence in Emergency Ward

The purpose of this "before-after" prospective multicenter study is to assess the impact of six Patient Information Leaflets (PILs) on Doctor Patient Communication scale (DPC) and adherence scale for common acute illnesses in emergency ward.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Assessing the impact of six Patient Information Leaflets (PILs) on Doctor Patient Communication scale (DPC) and adherence scale for common acute illnesses (infectious colitis, diverticulitis, pneumonitis, prostatitis, pyelonephritis , ankle sprain) in two emergency ward.

For "before" study without intervention : usual consultation without PIL .

For "after study" with intervention : the patient is given a PIL related to his disease during the consultation.

Data collection will take place the same day as the consultation by self-administered questionnaire for DPC scale and also between 7 to 10 days after the consultation by phone survey for DPC scale and adherence scale.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Doctor Patient Communication score
Time Frame: In seven to ten days after delivery
All patients will be called seven to ten days after the delivery of a PIL during the visit to answer a questionnaire on their perception of Doctor Patient Communication (DPC) since they visit the GP. Il will permit to calculate a DPC score.
In seven to ten days after delivery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adherence score
Time Frame: In seven to ten days after the delivery
All patients will be called seven to ten days after the delivery of a PIL during the visit, to answer a questionnaire on their adherence related to the disease since they visit the GP. Il will permit to calculate a adherence score.
In seven to ten days after the delivery
Satisfaction score
Time Frame: In seven to ten days after the delivery
All patients will be called seven to ten days after the visit, to answer a questionnaire on their satisfaction about since they visit the GP. Il will permit to calculate a satisfaction score.
In seven to ten days after the delivery
Doctor Patient Communication score
Time Frame: Just after the visit
All patients will answer to a self questionnaire on their perception of Doctor Patient Communication (DPC) just after the visit of the GP. Il will permit to calculate a DPC score.
Just after the visit
