INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The potential benefit of outpatient care for this common digestive emergency is considerable, both for the patients themselves and for the public health system: 1. Optimization of the care pathway, reducing the length of stay in hospital (a major issue in the context of the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) pandemic) liberating patient beds and staff, and reducing the risk of nosocomial exposure. 2. Improved patient satisfaction compared to waiting for hours in the emergency department due to lack of hospital beds. 3. Non-inferiority of care in an outpatient unit in terms of quality and safety in day hospitalization. 4. Significant decrease in the overall cost of this pathology as a result of a reduction in the hospital stay.
