Patient Global Impression of Change(PGIC)

Korean translation: 환자 전반적 인상 척도

English term or phrase: Patient Global Impression of Change(PGIC)
Hi all,

What would be standard Korean term for "Patient Global Impression of Change(PGIC)" in psychiatry or psychopharmacology? It is a scale to assess treatment response in patients with pscyhiatric disorder(but not restricted to psychiatry) and rated as: very much improved, much improved, minimally improved, no change, minimally worse, much worse, or very much worse. There must be right Korean term in use, I think.

Any help will be much appreciated. TIA.

Hi Purple Downshifter,

I found your suggestion most helpful. "환자 전반적 인상 척도" would be sensible, appropriate Korean term for PGIC but I am afraid "change" is not mentioned properly in Korean wording. It helps me anyway. MANY THANKS!

The PGIC is a standardized, self-reported tool that measures the change in a patient's overall status ranging from "very much improved" to "very much worse."
