1. Dr KEES VAN BOVEN Dutch College of General Practitioners The Dutch Family of International Classifications: ICPC-2, ICD-10, and ICF

2. Roles of the Dutch family members In general practice electronic patient records diagnostic ordering principle for the GP: ICPC-2 diagnostic specificity: ICD-10 (combined in one tool: ICPC2-ICD10 thesaurus) additional data on functioning and disability: ICF

3. INTERNATIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF PRIMARY CARE ICPC-1: 1987 ICPC-2:1998 ICPC-2-E: 2000

4. A classification is the ordering principle of a defined domain

5. ICPC: THE DOMAIN OF FAMILY PRACTICE… quantitatively…..

6. 200 600 400 10.000 SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSES ICPC: > 1 PER 1000 PPY ICD: <1 PER 1000 PY

7. and qualitatively…..

8. DESCRIBES THE CONTENT OF PATIENT-FP ENCOUNTERS localization before etiology symptoms AND diagnoses -28 impairment category -27 fear of.. category -64 category (FP’s initiative) social problems patient and FP oriented

9. What is the unit of observation in family medicine? Patients? Doctors? Encounters? Diagnoses? Episodes: the patient with his/her problem over time

10. episode of care health problem from the first encounter for it with a health care provider till the last one

11. EPISODE OF CARE Perceived health problem Perceived need for care RFE, demand for care DiagnosisProcess RFE, demand for care DiagnosisProcess RFE, demand for care DiagnosisProcess

12. ICPC bi-axial structure 17 alpha-coded chapters based on body systems/problem areas 7 identical components, with rubrics bearing a two-digit numeric code

13. ICPC Chapters (Systems) A General and unspecified B Blood/bloodforming organs, lymphatics (spleen, bone marrow) D Digestive F Eye (Focal) H Ear (Hearing) K Circulatory L Musculoskeletal (Locomotion) N Neurological P Psychological R Respiratory S Skin T Endocrine, metabolic and nutritional (Thyroid) U Urological W Pregnancy, child bearing, family planning (Women) X Female genital (X-chromosome) Y Male genital (Y-chromosome) Z Social problems

14. ICPC Components Components (standard for each chapter) CODES 1.Complaints and symptoms 1-29 2.Diagnostic and preventive 30-49 3.Treatment, procedures and medication 50-59 4.Test results 60-61 5.Administrative 62 6.Referral and other reasons for encounter63-69 (64!!) 7.Diagnoses/diseases:70-99 - infectious diseases - neoplasms - injuries - congenital anomalies - other

15. Episode of care Core Elements Reasons for encounter Health problems/diagnoses = Episode Title Process of care/interventions (Outcomes) Transitions One or more encounters, including changes in their relations over time

16. Episodes of care Reason for encounter (RFE) The agreed statement of the reason(s) why a patient enters the health care system, the demand for care by that person. Symptoms or complaints (headache, tiredness, feeling depressed, having fear of cancer) Known diseases (diabetes, hay fever) Requests: for preventive or diagnostic services (a blood pressure check or an ECG), a request for treatment (repeat prescription), getting information, or test results, or administrative procedure (a medical certificate). It is the PATIENT’S statement, clarified by the doctor.

17. Episodes of care Reason for encounter (RFE) This is a true primary care concept Primary Care is RFE driven, not diagnosis driven

18. Episodes of care Health problem: the diagnosis Certainty Status Clinical findings No coding (yet) for everything in primary care

19. TOOLS ICPC-2 1404 terms including all process codes Acts as ordering principle Common entities have distinct codes Surprisingly complete given small size Context of episode adds specificity ICD-10 14,000 terms Adds clinical specificity to ICPC

20. Episodes of care Processes of care Diagnostic/preventive procedures Treatment, procedures and medication Tests and results Administrative Referrals Outcome Functional status, ICF, WONCA/COOP indicators Severity of illness, DUSOI

21. Episode example 23 yr old woman typist, tennis player ICPC code? RFE: pain R elbow for 10 days, and can’t use R arm at work: ICPC code? L10 & L28 L10 & L28 ICPC code? Process: Tenderness R lat. Epicondyle: ICPC code? L31 Partial examination L31 Partial examination ICPC code? Diagnosis: Tennis elbow: ICPC code? L93 L93 ICPC code? Process: Steroid injection: ICPC code? L55 L55

22.

23. Episodes of care Transitions An episode may occur over many encounters  Diabetes is a lifelong episode Each encounter may have more then one episode assessed Many to many relationship between episodes and encounters

24. Possibilities for data on functioning & disability Classification of Body Functions in patients’ Reasons for Encounter, as symptoms and complaints, in GP’s clinical observations, as extension of ICPC process mode Classification of Activities and Participation involves clinical consequences of a specific episode of care, resulting in limitations, as extension of ICPC process mode Qualifiers for Function and Activities & Participation might be quite useful for family practice

25. Health condition (disorder or disease) Body function Activities Participation and structures Environmental Personal Factors

26. COPD (ICPC/ICD code) Breathlessness Can`t get upstairs No work Poor condition Living in a flat Smoking

27. Case history Mr De Vries, age 72 Present complaints Shortness of breath Palpitations Findings Hypotension Bradycardia Can’t get upstairs Walking difficulties ICPC code R02 K04 ICPC - ICF code K43 - B4201 K43 - B410 K48 - D460 K48 - D450
