An ad hoc committee of the North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) was appointed to adapt the diagnosis clusters instrument for use with the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9-CM) and the International Classification of Health Problems in Primary Care (ICHPPC-2). This article describes the development and testing of the final roster of 110 diagnosis clusters for family physicians. Almost 90 percent of all diagnoses recorded by family physicians in a variety of settings were included in the clusters. The diagnosis clusters can be used in the analysis of large databases and facilitate comparisons between different providers and practices.
北美初级保健研究组（NAPCRG）任命了一个特别委员会，对诊断聚类工具进行调整，以便与《国际疾病分类》（ICD - 9 - CM）和《初级保健中的国际健康问题分类》（ICHPPC - 2）一起使用。本文描述了针对家庭医生的110个诊断聚类最终列表的开发和测试情况。家庭医生在各种环境中记录的所有诊断中，近90%都包含在这些聚类中。这些诊断聚类可用于大型数据库的分析，并有助于不同医疗服务提供者和医疗实践之间的比较。
