LANDA, N.; GONI, A.; GARCIA DE JALON, E.  e  LOPEZ-GONI, J.J.. Diagnostic concordance between paediatric and mental health. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2009, vol.32, n.2, pp.161-168. ISSN 1137-6627.

Background. To analyse the diagnostic concordance between the paediatric and mental health (MH) services. Materials and methods. Two hundred and seven patients from 0 to 16 years referred from paediatrics to the Estella Mental Health Centre during 2006 and 2007. Concordance between global Kappa Index and specific diagnosis was calculated with Epidat 3.1. An analysis was made for each diagnostic category of the percentage of cases where the diagnosis made in paediatrics was confirmed in Mental Health. Results. The global diagnostic concordance between both medical care levels has a Kappa Index of 0.58. There is a wide variability in the concordance between the different diagnoses. The concordance is weak (0.2-0.4) for specific developmental disorder, affective disorders and adaptative disorders. A moderate concordance (0.41-0.6) is obtained for mental retardation, pervasive developmental disorder, z diagnostics, and sibling rivalry disorder. Concordance is good for attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity, anxiety disorder and conduct disorder. Finally, the diagnostic concordance is very good for enuresis and encopresis and for eating disorders. Conclusions. The diagnostic concordance obtained between paediatric services and the mental health centre is moderate. A wide variability is obtained in the concordance between different diagnoses.
