Study Description

Our main objective was to describe the use of rigid corsets to immobilise patients with spondylodiscitis in hospital, by asking doctors about their practices.

The secondary objectives are :

  • To describe the use of rigid corsets to immobilise patients suffering from spondylodiscitis in hospital by asking paramedical staff about the way in which medical prescriptions were implemented and patients about their compliance.

  • To measure the rate of satisfaction and understanding of patients treated with a corset.

  • To detail the different ways in which doctors and paramedical staff manage patients hospitalised for spondylodiscitis, depending on their age, training, speciality and the department in which they work.
