* To evaluate exhaustiveness of patient inclusion in the study, one week was randomly drawn from the inclusion period, excluding the first and last month in each center. A study coordinator and a member of the steering committee reviewed the emergency department charts to estimate the number of patients missed during the randomly chosen week. Exhaustiveness was defined as the number of included patients divided by the total number of patients who should have been included in the study (sum of missed and included patients). It was extrapolated based on the estimation in each center: 62% (36%–88%).
