“…limited authentic interprofesssional learning opportunities, could be mitigated by incorporating the ICF framework into health professional curricula. 16 Access to a common set of meanings and language for shared communication is an essential condition for interprofessional education and collaboration.…”

“…[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Despite the limited evidence, there is increasing attention from educators in the application of the ICF as a learning framework to scaffold IPECP. 16 Stimulated by the international interest in IPECP, a number of jurisdictions (e.g. Canada and USA) have developed agreed learning outcomes and competencies to guide interprofessional learning of health personnel.…”

The World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (WHO-ICF) is a comprehensive and highly adaptable framework that provides a universal language and shared health concepts to articulate human functioning across the lifespan and from individual to population health settings. It provides a global, biopsychosocial, and holistic structure for conceptualising the human experience of health and health service provision. Consequently, the ICF framework offers hope for a universal map for health service providers that bridges professional, cultural, economic, and geographical variations. While the use of the ICF is typically mandated by health professions accreditation bodies, integration of the ICF in medical and health professional education programmes has been slow. In addition, its potential for scaffolding interprofessional education for collaborative practice has not been maximised. In this Perspective paper, we draw on our extensive experience in developing curricula and teaching within a range of health professions programmes (medicine, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and speech-language pathology) to provide advice on conceptual, theoretical, and practical dimensions of embedding the ICF framework within curricula to support interprofessional education and collaborative practice.

“…It has demonstrated strengths in the promotion of a comprehensive perspective on health, ease in the application of this theory to practice, and the ability to enhance communication and collaboration across HCPs 19 . The ICF has been a catalyst for interprofessional education and collaborative practice in other neurological health conditions 20 Table 1 describes the four domains of the ICF framework and the corresponding recommended CDEs for Ontario TC within each domain.…”

Background: Standardized data collection for traumatic brain injury (TBI) (including concussion) using common data elements (CDEs) has strengthened clinical care and research capacity in the United States and Europe. Currently, Ontario healthcare providers do not collect uniform data on adult patients diagnosed with concussion. Objective: The Ontario Concussion Care Strategy (OCCS) is a collaborative network of multidisciplinary healthcare providers, brain injury advocacy groups, patient representatives, and researchers with a shared vision to improve concussion care across the province, starting with the collection of standardized data. Methods: The International Framework of Functioning Disability and Health was selected as the conceptual framework to inform the selection of CDEs. The CDEs recommended by the OCCS were identified using key literature, including the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke-Zurich Consensus Statements for concussion in sport and the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation Concussion/mTBI clinical guidelines. Results: The OCCS has recommended and piloted CDEs for Ontario that are readily available at no cost, clinically relevant, patient friendly, easy to interpret, and recognized by the international scientific community. Conclusions: The implementation of CDEs can help to shift Ontario toward internationally recognized standard data collection, and in so doing yield a more comprehensive evidence-based approach to care while also supporting rigorous research.RÉSUMÉ: Éléments de données communs concernant le traitement des commotions cérébrales dans les centres de soins tertiaires : la première phase en Ontario. Contexte: En utilisant des éléments de données communs (common data elements), la collecte normalisée de données au sujet des lésions cérébrales traumatiques (LCT), ce qui inclut les commotions cérébrales, a pu renforcer les soins cliniques et les capacités de la recherche aux États-Unis et en Europe. Au moment où l'on se parle, les fournisseurs ontariens de soins de santé ne collectent pas de données uniformes en ce qui concerne les patients adultes chez qui on a diagnostiqué une commotion cérébrale. Objectifs: La Ontario Concussion Care Strategy (OCCS) est un réseau coopératif qui rassemble des fournisseurs multidisciplinaires de soins de santé, des groupes de défense des personnes ayant subi des lésions, des représentants des patients et des chercheurs qui partagent une vision commune quant à la nécessité d'améliorer, partout dans la province, les soins prodigués à la suite d'une commotion cérébrale. Cela commence, selon eux, par une collecte normalisée de données. Méthodes: Nous avons choisi la Classification internationale du fonctionnement, du handicap et de la santé (CIF) à titre de cadre conceptuel sur lequel devait reposer la collecte de nos éléments de données communs. La OCCS a recommandé ces éléments en s'appuyant sur des publications clés, par exemple celles du National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, sur les énoncés du consensu...

It was chosen specifically to address this cross-section of South African society, represented in the community from which the participants were drawn (Snyman, Pressentin & Clarke, 2015). Participants were asked to write down as many words as they could think of.…”
