Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group 1 : Before

"Before" phase including 186 patients patients included before the implementation of the prescription support tool

Anti-infectious prescription support tool

Intervention Type DEVICE

implementation of a pocket notebook with current anti-infectious recommendations in the emergency department Patients were kept under surveillance for at least one hour before discharge.

Patients were discharged home with a 7 day supply of acetaminophen 1000 mg orally every 6 h, ketoprofen 100 mg, orally twice a day, and muscle relaxant as needed. Patients were instructed to take tramadol 50 mg, orally every 6h as needed for low back pain, in case of insufficient relief.

Group 2 : After

"After" phase including 185 patients patients included after the implementation of the prescription support tool

Anti-infectious prescription support tool

Intervention Type DEVICE

implementation of a pocket notebook with current anti-infectious recommendations in the emergency department Patients were kept under surveillance for at least one hour before discharge.

Patients were discharged home with a 7 day supply of acetaminophen 1000 mg orally every 6 h, ketoprofen 100 mg, orally twice a day, and muscle relaxant as needed. Patients were instructed to take tramadol 50 mg, orally every 6h as needed for low back pain, in case of insufficient relief.
