Introduction[edit | edit source]

Model of disability which has been systematically developed by The World Health Organization (WHO) is based on the ongoing interaction between ones health and contextual factors. This model acknowledges that disability is a universal human experience, is etiologically neutral, and it lies on a continuum from no disability to complete disability.[1]The contextual factors affecting person's health include real-life environment, social interactions, and social participations.[1]Every healthcare personel need to understand and appreciate that patient perceives his health through the lenses of his daily life impacted by the environment.[1]This course provides an introduction to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and review the changes and progress in conceptualising and measuring disability.

International Classification of Impairment, Disability and Handicaps (ICIDH)[edit | edit source]

n 1980, the World Health Organization published the ICIDH as a manual of classification related to the consequences of disease, injuries, and other disorders. It was also intended to be a conceptual framework for health-related information. The ICIDH has been translated into over a dozen languages. There were a number of applications and uses of the ICIDH around the world, but it never reach full implementation.[2] Impairments are classified according to abnormalities of body structure and appearance or disturbances of organ or system function resulting from any cause (‎disturbances at the organ level)‎. The classification of disabilities reflects the consequences of impairment in terms of functional performance and activity by the individual (‎disturbances at the individual level)‎. Handicaps cover the disadvantages experienced by the individual as a result of impairments and disabilities (‎interaction of the individual with the environment)‎.[3]
