Q

What is the classification framework used to guide clinical practice? It was developed by World Health Organization (WHO) and published in 2001. The health condition is the disorder or disease. The body functions and structures describe the anatomy and physiology. The environmental factors describe how the deficit influences the individual’s life and experiences. The activities and participation component describes how the deficit limits the individual’s activities and restricts their participation.
