Introduction[edit | edit source]
The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a framework that describes in a more systematic way typical affected areas in health conditions in terms of body functioning and structure, activities and participation, personal and environmental circumstances. It uses a unified, globally agreed-upon language for the reporting of health and health-related states. The ICF has two components: a classification system for the coding of functioning and disability, and a conceptual framework that serves to define, describe, and organise information on health and disability aspects.
With regards to patients with osteoporosis, in 2003, the World Health Organisation (WHO) produced a Technical Report on the burden of musculoskeletal conditions. Based on the health domains covered by available generic health-status measures and a qualitative review of the literature, a number of health domains of importance in patients with osteoporosis were suggested with the aim to develop internationally-accepted and evidence-based ICF Comprehensive and Brief Core Sets for osteoporosis.
ICF Core Set Categories for Osteoporosis[edit | edit source]
69 ICF categories have been included in the Comprehensive ICF Core Set. These categories can be considered when conducting a comprehensive, multidisciplinary assessment. Out of the 69 categories, 22 ICF categories are included in the Brief ICF Core Set for osteoporosis. The Brief ICF Core Set can be used in assessing patients participating in a clinical study on osteoporosis. [1]
