Key Points

• The use of emergency care for all causes (Oscour® hospital emergency departments and SOS Médecins), across all age groups and among those aged 75 and older, remained within the usual fluctuations for the period; there was a slight increase in all-cause activity in emergency departments (all-cause visits and hospitalizations) within the expected range for the period.

• An increase in SOS Médecins and hospital emergency department activity for the iCanicule indicator (including hyperthermia, dehydration, and hyponatremia) was observed during the alert period, with values that nevertheless remained within the usual range for the period.
