International Nomenclature and Classification of Diseases and Causes of Death

The International Nomenclature and Classification of Diseases and Causes of Death (INCDC) is an important tool in the field of medicine and healthcare. It is a system of standard terms and codes used to classify diseases, medical conditions and causes of death. The ICBP is developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is a universal system adopted by many countries around the world.

The purpose of the ICBP is to ensure uniformity and consistency in the classification and documentation of medical data. It allows scientists, health professionals, statisticians and other interested parties to analyze and compare data on morbidity, mortality and population health across countries and regions.

The INKBPS has many sections, including various classifications of diseases and medical conditions. The core section known as the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ISCDHP) is the most widely used and well-known part of the ISCDP.

The MSKBP consists of a list of medical diagnoses divided into different categories and groups. Each diagnosis has its own unique code, which facilitates the exchange of information and communication.
