    This study details the conversion of the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) disease classification to the International Classification of Health Problems for Primary Care (ICHPPC). The research provides a comprehensive translation for family medicine problem-oriented medical records.

    Area of Science:

    • Primary Care Medicine
    • Medical Informatics
    • Health Classification Systems

    Background:

    • The Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) Classification of Diseases, adapted for problem-oriented medical records, required a more compatible international standard.
    • Existing health problem classifications needed alignment for improved data sharing and research in primary care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To definitively convert the RCGP Classification of Diseases to the International Classification of Health Problems for Primary Care (ICHPPC).
    • To provide a standardized tool for family medicine training programs utilizing problem-oriented medical records.

    Main Methods:

    • Faculty members from four family medicine training programs collaborated on the conversion process.
    • A systematic translation methodology was employed to map RCGP codes and titles to their ICHPPC equivalents.

  • Challenges encountered during the conversion were documented.

    • Main Results:

    • A comprehensive and definitive conversion from RCGP to ICHPPC was successfully produced.
    • Detailed translation of each RCGP diagnostic title and code number to its ICHPPC equivalent is provided.
    • The study outlines the methodology and specific problems encountered during the classification conversion.

    Conclusions:

    • The conversion facilitates better integration of family medicine data within the ICHPPC framework.
    • This work supports enhanced data analysis and consistency in primary care research.
    • The provided translation serves as a valuable resource for family medicine practitioners and educators.
