[Introduction to the international classification of functioning, disability and health (ICF)].
The WHO International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) allows a standardized description of functioning and disability based on individual and contextual factors. The ICF adopts a biopsychosocial model of disability and functioning and is complementary to the ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases). For its implementation in clinical practice ICF-based instruments, such as the ICF core sets were developed in a standardized scientific process. These consist of the ICF categories which are most relevant for patients with specific diseases or in specific health care situations. In trauma care the ICF and ICF core sets can be applied in defined health problems and treatment situations for documentation of functioning, structured planning and implementation of interventions as well as outcome assessment.
