Introduction[edit | edit source]
A comprehensive and holistic nature of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) makes it extremely useful in clinical practice. [1] The primary purpose of applying the ICF into clinical practice is to establish a common language for defining health and health-related states between different providers.[2] It improves communication in decision making among healthcare and social care professionals, which is essential for making more informed assessments, developing more effective interventions, and achieving good patient outcomes.[1]
Overview of ICF[edit | edit source]
The ICF defines the interaction between health conditions, personal and social factors, daily life activities and social life.[3]The relationship of these various domains and components is reciprocal, which explains how they interact with one another.[1]
Framework[edit | edit source]
The ICF is a biopsychosocial model of functioning, health and disability. It helps to explain disability as a complex
Classification[edit | edit source]
ICF-Based Tools/ICF Informed Tools[edit | edit source]
Framework, classification, The ICF-based tools, the ICF-informed tools (WHODAS, ICF checklist)
WHO Disability Assessment Schedule[edit | edit source]
The WHO Disability Assessment Schedule enable clinical professionals to create functional profiles of their patients to develop more informed interventions. In this assessment all relevant domains are included: health conditions, activities and participation, and environmental factors. Thus, the ICF can be useful at enhancing decision making among healthcare and social care professionals.
Case Study[edit | edit source]
The patient sustained a burn injury to the hand causing damage to the integrity of the skin structure.
Goals:
- Defining ICF codes that correspond to this patient's injury for the purpose of assessment
- Choosing ICF developed qualifiers or qualifiers specific to the profession you represent
Body structure codes (s codes) according to specificity :
- s810: structures of the area of skin
- s8102:skin of the upper extremity
Body functions (b codes) following the skin healing process:
- b810: protective functions of the skin may be impaired temporarily
- b820: functions of the skin for repairing breaks and other damage to the skin (from wound stage to scar formation)
- Inclusion and exclusion criteria can be applied to the body functions domain:
- Inclusion: function of scab formation, healing, scaring; bruising and keloid formation
- Exclusion: protective function of the skin; other functions of the skin.
- Inclusion and exclusion criteria can be applied to the body functions domain:
