The European general practice research network presents the translations of its comprehensive definition of multimorbidity in family medicine in ten European languages.
(2015) In PLoS ONE 10(1).- Abstract
- Multimorbidity, according to the World Health Organization, exists when there are two or more chronic conditions in one patient. This definition seems inaccurate for the holistic approach to Family Medicine (FM) and long-term care. To avoid this pitfall the European General Practitioners Research Network (EGPRN) designed a comprehensive definition of multimorbidity using a systematic literature review.
