ABSTRACT: Introduction:The International Classification of Primary Care, Second version (ICPC-2) aligned with the 10th Revision of the International Classification of Disease (ICD-10) is a standard for primary care epidemiology compendium. ICPC-2 has been also intended to identify the clinical topics in family medicine. Contextual field-specific knowledge in family medicine and primary care such as health structures, management, categories of patients, research methods, ethical or environmental features are not standardized and reflect, more often, the views of experts. Methods:A qualitative research method, applied to the analysis of several Family Medicine congresses, has helped identify, in addition to clinical items, a spectrum of contextual concepts addressed by family doctors during their exchanges at the congresses. Assembled in a hierarchical manner, these concepts were given expression, together with ICPC-2, under the name of Q-codes Version 2.5, in the multilingual multi-terminology semantic server of the Department of Information and medical informatics (D2Im) at the University of Rouen, France. The two classifications are edited under the acronym 3 CGP for Core Content classification of General Practice. This free access server allows you to consult the ICPC-2 in 22 languages and the Q-codes in ten languages. Results:The result of the joint use of these two classifications, as descriptors in congress to identify the concepts in texts or index the gray literature for family medicine and primary care is presented here in its various pilot uses. The validity and generalizability of 3CGP appears to be good in the light of the translations already carried out by colleagues around the world and of the applicability of the method in the two sides of the Atlantic. However the reproducibility and the inter-coder variations still remain to be tested for Q-codes. Maintenance remains an issue. Conclusion:This method highlights the conceptual extension, the complexity and the dynamics of the role of general practitioner and family doctor as well as of primary care physician.

Project description:BackgroundIn 2022, NHS England announced plans to ensure that all adult primary care patients in England would have full online access to new data added to their general practitioner (GP) record. However, this plan has not yet been fully implemented. Since April 2020, the GP contract in England has already committed to offering patients full online record access on a prospective basis and on request. However, there has been limited research into UK GPs' experiences and opinions about this practice innovation.ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore the experiences and opinions of GPs in England about patients' access to their full web-based health record, including clinicians' free-text summaries of the consultation (so-called "open notes").MethodsIn March 2022, using a convenience sample, we administered a web-based mixed methods survey of 400 GPs in the United Kingdom to explore their experiences and opinions about the impact on patients and GPs' practices to offer patients full online access to their health records. Participants were recruited using the clinician marketing service Doctors.net.uk from registered GPs currently working in England. We conducted a qualitative descriptive analysis of written responses ("comments") to 4 open-ended questions embedded in a web-based questionnaire.ResultsOf 400 GPs, 224 (56%) left comments that were classified into 4 major themes: increased strain on GP practices, the potential to harm patients, changes to documentation, and legal concerns. GPs believed that patient access would lead to extra work for them, reduced efficiency, and increased burnout. The participants also believed that access would increase patient anxiety and incur risks to patient safety. Experienced and perceived documentation changes included reduced candor and changes to record functionality. Anticipated legal concerns encompassed fears about increased litigation risks and lack of legal guidance to GPs about how to manage documentation that would be read by patients and potential third parties.ConclusionsThis study provides timely information on the views of GPs in England regarding patient access to their web-based health records. Overwhelmingly, GPs were skeptical about the benefits of access both for patients and to their practices. These views are similar to those expressed by clinicians in other countries, including Nordic countries and the United States before patient access. The survey was limited by the convenience sample, and it is not possible to infer that our sample was representative of the opinions of GPs in England. More extensive, qualitative research is required to understand the perspectives of patients in England after experiencing access to their web-based records. Finally, further research is needed to explore objective measures of the impact of patient access to their records on health outcomes, clinician workload, and changes to documentation.
