BECOME PATIENTS IN THE EMERGENCIES OF UHC POITIERS (DEPAUG)

March 2, 2018 updated by: Poitiers University Hospital

ANALYSIS OF THE BECOME OF THE PATIENTS ADDRESSED BY THEIR GENERAL PRACTITIONER TO EMERGENCIES OF UHC POITIERS

The number of consultations in the emergency services has continued to increase with 19.7 million passages in 2014, an increase of 4% compared to 2013. Among these admissions, many patients come spontaneously to the emergency department and others are sent by the general practitioner who remains the first resort in the care of the patient.

Faced with this massive influx to emergency services, the investigator will see what is the future of these. Are they more likely to be hospitalized than patients presenting to emergencies on their own?
