WHO-ICF Flashcards
It describes the consequences of the
disorder or disease in terms of three levels
International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities, and Handicaps
at the body level; it is defined as abnormalities of structure
or function at the organ level.
Impairment
Affect performance of everyday task
Disability
will affect socio-economic and environmental disadvantage resulting from the impairment or the disability; societal level
HAndicap
Three major limitations of ICIDH
- The linear and causal relationship between each of the three levels of disablements did not adequately reflect all health and health-related experiences.
- The ICIDH recognized the environment as a factor but only in the negative way
- Personal factors, those aspects of a person unrelated to the health condition.
Describes actual anatomy and physiology/ psychology of the human body
Body functions and structures
Describes the person’s functional status, including communication, mobility, interpersonal interactions, self care, learning, applying knowledge, etc. at the level of the person
Activity limitation
Describes the person’s functional status, including communication, mobility, interpersonal interactions, self care, learning, applying knowledge, etc. at the level of the community
Participation restriction
Factors that are NOT within the person’s control, such as family, work, government agencies, laws, and cultural beliefs
Environmental factors
Include race, gender, age, educational level, coping styles, etc
Personal Factors
Therefore, the use of the two together would provide a more comprehensive picture of the health of persons and populations
The ICD classifies disease, the ICF looks at functioning
The ICF is not based on etiology or “consequence of disease,” but as a component of health
while functional status may be related
to a health condition, knowing the health condition does not predict functional status
In this definition, functioning as classified in ● the ICF is an essential component of health
The WHO defines “health” as “the complete physical, mental, and social functioning of a person and not merely the absence of disease”
The ICF describes health and health related domains using standard language
Because there is a way to classify the
di culty in terms of functions and they are
able to rate the performance from 0 to 5
The Purposes of ICF
● Collection of Statistical data
● Clinical Research
● Clinical Use
● Social Policy Use
T or F: The ICF is stated as the framework for the field in both the scope of practice for SLP (2001) and scope of practice for audiology (2004)
True
are visual representations of information. They can take the forms of charts, graphic organizers, tables, flow charts, venn diagrams, timelines, or T-chart.
Concept Map
Five Attributes of Concept Maps
Nodes
Linking words
Propositions
Cross-links
Overall appearance
the identification of relevant concepts helps students organize information with meaningful relationships between concepts
Nodes
Should define the relationships between the two concepts so that it reads as a valid statement or proposition. T
Linking words
The basic unit of a concept map (Novak & Gowin, 1984). There are di erent types of concept maps, e.g. simple, top-down hierarchical, and networked
Proposition
Are relationships or links between concepts in di erent segments or domains of the concept map’’
Cross Links
depends on whether they’re able to discriminate the important nodes to include VS not able to discriminate because of too many or too little numbers of nodes.
Comprehensiveness (Nodes)
Are you able to identify the relationship between concepts?
Content (Linking Words)
Statements and arguments
Content (Propositions)
Something to do with relationships
Content (Cross-Links)
This enhances understanding VS detracts from understanding that tells us that it has been e ective if you’re able to retrieve the information which was the CM.
Clarity (Overall appearance)
