Feasibility and Quality of TeleConsultation in Pediatric Anesthesia (TéléCCCAP)

March 10, 2026 updated by: University Hospital, Toulouse

Assessment of the Feasibility and Quality of the Consultation by TeleConsultation in Pediatric Anesthesia in the Context of the Covid 19 Pandemic

Teleconsultation (TLC) being a new method of anesthesia consultation, deployed as an emergency in healthcare facilities in the Covid context, it has never been evaluated either in terms of feasibility or in terms of quality. An initial assessment will highlight the pitfalls and difficulties encountered and suggest areas for improvement.

Detailed Description

The evaluation of teleconsultation in pediatric anesthesia, a new consultation method developed in the context of COVID for several weeks, appears necessary and will be a first inventory after its implementation in France. Analysis of the data collected in this study will allow us to propose technical, medical and organizational solutions to optimize the positioning and practical use of TLC for patients and care facilities. This assessment step seems imperative if the Covid context persists over time but could also be useful for the development of TLC outside the Covid context.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
teleconsultation
Patient with teleconsultation of pre-anesthesia
In the pandemic period linked to COVID, pediatric pre-anesthesis consultations should preferably be carried out by teleconsultation. This is to assess the effectiveness of these teleconsultation and the satisfaction of parents.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
assess the feasibility of teleconsultation (TLC) in pediatric anesthesia in France in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic.
Time Frame: 3 months
The feasibility of anesthesia TLC will be assessed by the failure rate of anesthesia TLC, defined by the conversion rate to degraded TLC (use of an unsecured video medium such as WhatsApp or simple audio communication without video support) or in face-to-face consultation
3 months
