About this study
Official title: 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.
Read the 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.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
teleconsultationOther
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.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| teleconsultation | Patient with teleconsultation of pre-anesthesia Receives: Other: teleconsultation |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
assess the feasibility of teleconsultation (TLC) in pediatric anesthesia in France in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic.
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
Measured: 3 months
