  1. An ICF 'Brief Core Set' differs from a 'Comprehensive Core Set' in that it:

    Answer: Contains fewer categories for use in brief assessments

    A Brief Core Set contains a minimal, essential subset of ICF categories suitable for clinical practice, while a Comprehensive Core Set contains a full set for research and detailed assessment.

  2. How does integrating ICF into electronic health records (EHRs) benefit patient care?

    Answer: Enables standardized, structured functional data across clinical encounters

    Integrating ICF into EHRs allows standardized functional data to be collected, compared, and tracked over time, improving continuity of care.

  3. Which ICF Core Set is commonly used in clinical practice for patients with stroke?

    Answer: ICF Core Set for Stroke

    The ICF Core Set for Stroke was developed specifically for stroke rehabilitation and includes the most relevant ICF categories for this population.

  4. In occupational therapy, the ICF framework helps practitioners:

    Answer: Link occupation-based interventions to specific functioning domains

    ICF helps occupational therapists connect occupational performance interventions to specific activity limitation and participation restriction domains for outcome measurement.

  5. What is the recommended first step when applying ICF in a new clinical setting?

    Answer: Select an appropriate ICF Core Set for the patient population

    Selecting a condition-specific or setting-appropriate ICF Core Set is the recommended starting point to make ICF feasible and relevant in clinical practice.

  6. How does the ICF support person-centered care planning?

    Answer: By including the person's perspective through performance qualifiers and goal setting

    The ICF's performance qualifier captures what people actually do in real life, and its framework supports identifying goals meaningful to the individual, promoting person-centered care.
