About this trial
The research system is a Mobile Perinatal Psychiatry Team (EMPPer), for children aged 0 to 3 and their parents. it facilitates access to psychiatric care by going to families who need it and who are in difficulty to ensure this process.
This device, already deployed in a dozen French cities for several years, convinced the teams of its interest, without demonstrating its effectiveness by evaluation conducted according to research standards. The deployment of a Mobile Perinatal Psychiatry Team in a region not yet equipped (Meurthe-et-Moselle Sud) would therefore offer the opportunity to assess its effectiveness,
The main objective of the research is to evaluate the effect of the EMPPer on the prevalence of abnormalities in the psychomotor development of children at the age of 2 years, in comparison with similar territories that do not benefit from it, and in comparison with the period preceding the establishment of the EMPPer in the targeted territory.
