ICF-CY may work as a road-map for in-hospital paediatric neuro-rehabilitation. Its implementation results in perceived improvements in the process. Training requirements and accurate evaluation of timing, workload and organizational context are critical issues that should be addressed before results from the present experience are generalized.
The results confirmed the feasibility of ICF implementation in the clinical setting. ICF based project/program was appreciated by both team members and caregivers as adding quality to the rehabilitation process. These results further encourage the implementation of ICF based tools in the clinical sector.
This application confirmed that ICF contribute to improve the quality of interdisciplinary work and to share the rehabilitation process between team members and family. Indeed ICF-CY works efficiently as a roadmap for in-hospital pediatric neuro-rehabilitation. Its implementation results in perceived improvements in the process, ongoing utilization reduces the time needed and the problems encountered in completing the task.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
