29 Prevalence estimates f multimrbidity amng adult PHC patients in Canada is cnsistent with internatinal literature Adult PHC patients with multimrbidity are living with clusters that becme increasingly unique, especially when a specific sequence is examined Careful use f this infrmatin in clinical training culd help create simulated multimrbidity-based patient vignettes f the mst cmmn/uncmmn clusters using real data These results prvide empirical evidence t supprt the need fr patient- and family-centered care fr individuals living with multimrbidity
