[Study of litigation files leading to a definitive settlement over three years in the orthopaedic trauma ward in a public hospital].

OBJECTIVE: To know the future of appeals against a public establishment of health. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We studied 16 files of dispute having ended in a definitive payment over three years in the service of orthopaedics of the Amiens hospital (2001-2003). RESULTS: The majority of the plaintiffs are people (63%), and the average age is of 45,6 years (24 year/68 years). In 14 cases on 16, an expertise was done (7 on the initiative of the hospital and 8 on the initiative of administrative court). The opinion of the expert was followed in every case, except one. In the final, 5 patients (31%) received a compensation (3 with the administrative court and 2 after a love rule). Eleven patients (69%) were not indemnified (7 after demand with the administrative court 4 after demand of love rule). On the whole, 10 case was treated in the administrative court (62%) and 6 by the legal department of the hospital. Among cases settled by the service of dispute of the hospital, 2 ended in a love rule and 4 were classified. Among those treated by the court, 3 ended in a love rule and 7 were the object of a refusal.
