“…The study also demonstrates that individual goals may be categorized into five domains of the ICF-CY, hence allowing for comparison of studies by establishing a universal language (28). For example, the ICF-CY domains in our study have a higher proportion of activity-participation and a lower proportion of body function domain goals than for children with cerebral palsy (16) and for adults with acquired brain injury (29). Knowledge of the chosen domains of set goals also provides an opportunity to encourage change in goals as the child grows older, for example, to increase goals that include 'the child's active participation in the community' (5).…”

The International Classification of Function, Health and Disability can be utilised as a common framework for communication among clinicians involved in rehabilitation of persons with lower-limb amputation across the globe. The most important factors that were identified by experts in amputee rehabilitation working in different international locations were similar. Clinical relevance The challenges faced by the clinicians involved in care of persons with lower extremity amputation vary across different parts of the world. The overarching goal for the clinician irrespective of the location is to improve mobility and quality of life of their clients. The International Classification of Function, Health and Disability provides a common language between the various stakeholders in amputee rehabilitation across the globe.

“…Another advantage of using the TBI ICF Core Sets as a guide for the assessment is that it improves quality assurance of assessing the four different domains that interact in functioning. For example, research has shown that professionals tend to assess according to their area of knowledge (Laxe et al, 2014) and environmental factors that have a significant effect on functioning are not systematically assessed (Hoffman et al, 2014;Laxe et al, 2012).…”

INTRODUCTION: Traumatic brain injury is a sudden and unexpected condition that gives rise to different impairments in body functions and structures leading to dramatic life changes, not only to the patient but also to his or her family and ultimately in the wider society. As a health strategy, rehabilitation aims to reduce disability and increasing the quality of life of those people that suffer from TBI but also to reduce the social burden associated with it. Functioning is the starting point of rehabilitation and the use of measurement instruments and classifications are commonly used tools for its definition. Within the endorsement of the ICF by WHO, there is now a classification and a conceptual framework for the description of functioning providing an opportunity of a full understanding of the experience of TBI. OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to identify the utility of ICF in TBI as well as bringing new challenges for further clinical practice and research. CONCLUSIONS: ICF has shown itself to be useful in the content comparison of measurement instruments. It has also been used to describe the functional profile of individuals with TBI in both acute and chronic phases making it possible to draw comparisons across other health conditions. Furthermore, the development of the TBI ICF Core Sets provided an item bank to describe not only functional status but also to set goals and plan interventions. Overall, we now have a potentially useful tool in rehabilitation of TBI that allows us to understand the full burden of traumatic brain injury.
