In private healthcare facilities, the access to a specialized infectious disease (ID) advice is difficult. More, the lack of traceability is problematic and harmful for treatment and follow-up. We have tested an information technology (IT) application to improve medical transmission and evaluate an interdisciplinary ID activity. In November 2015, three ID physicians (IDP) created an interdisciplinary activity, visiting patients and giving phone advices among ten private healthcare facilities. They are members of the complex bone and joint infection unit of the community hospital where they are attached. Since September 2016, each advice was prospectively recorded on a protected online information system. These data are available for consultation and modification by the three IDP. It is the first descriptive analysis of this database.Aim
