A CCC is “any medical condition that can be reasonably expected to last at least 12 months (unless death intervenes) and to involve either several different organ systems or 1 organ system severely enough to require specialty pediatric care and probably some period of hospitalization in a tertiary care center
 Complex chronic conditions defined as diabetes plus one or more other additional conditions among: asthma, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, or hypertension.
The number of patients with complex chronic conditions (CCC) has increased in the last 20 years or so. There is limited data as regards the prevalence of CCC in the paediatric population and its impact on hospital admissions. The main objectives of this study are to determine the proportion of CCC in the paediatric hospital population and compare them with other groups of patients admitted (acute and chronic).
Common chronic diseases of children include asthma, cystic fibrosis, diabetes, epilepsy, and developmental disabilities, including ADHD, cerebral palsy, and autism spectrum disorders.
The CCC classification is widely used in research (currently cited in more than 100 peer-reviewed journal publications). However, the current approach to assigning the CCC categories in health care–related data sets is limited by proprietary software and computational inefficiency. SAS and Stata software to assign CCC categories were published as appendices to the 2014 update, but not all investigators have access to these statistical packages. In addition, increasingly large data sets are available to investigatuion.
