Abstract:
Continuous medical evaluation (CME) is compulsory which aims to ameliorate and guarantee quality of care. This paper describes the experience of our unit during the different stages of evaluation that permit us to obtain our accreditation. Our evaluation dealt with the "amelioration of women's and newborn's care after scheduled caesarean section". A first retrospective study of files of scheduled caesareans allowed to update possible points of improvement, after application of adapted corrective actions, both at the medical and paramedical level. The second study, made after application of these actions, allowed to appreciate the results of our initiative of CME, to update new possible points of improvement, but also to notice certain limits in the achievement of the objectives.
