Elaboração e validação de instrumento baseado no Core Set resumido da classificação internacional da funcionalidade para indivíduos com lesão medular aguda / Development and validation of an instrument based on the summarized Core Set of the international classification of functioning for individuals with acute spinal cord injury

A Lesão de Medula Espinhal (LME) é um trauma com efeitos devastadores na vida dos indivíduos. Estima-se que mais de 130.000 pessoas sejam afetadas por LME, a cada ano, em todo o mundo. Aproximadamente, 45% de todas as lesões são completas, deixando apenas uma pequena chance de recuperação funcional. As complicações ocasionadas pela LME influenciam a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos, aumentam as demandas de cuidados e os encargos sociais e econômicos de saúde. Este é um estudo metodológico, que teve o objetivo de construir e validar instrumento baseado no Core Set resumido da CIF, para indivíduos com lesão medular aguda traumática. Essa pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética e desenvolvida nas seguintes etapas: 1 - Elaboração do instrumento a partir do Core set resumido da CIF para lesão medular aguda: "Elaboração e Validação de Instrumento baseado no Core Set resumido da Classificação Internacional da Funcionalidade para indivíduos com Lesão Medular Aguda"; 2- Validação do instrumento e coleta de dados pelos juízes; 3- Aplicação do pré-teste. O instrumento para validação de face e conteúdo composto por 15 categorias que integraram os componentes da CIF: funções do corpo (6), estrutura do copo (2), atividades e participação (2), fatores ambientais e fatores pessoais (5). A validade de conteúdo do instrumento foi feita por um comitê de vinte e dois juízes. Dos 22 juízes, 18 (81,8%) eram do sexo feminino e 4 (18,2%) do sexo masculino. A maioria era constituída por jovens, com média entre 40±10 anos, sendo que 3 participantes (13,6%) tinham idade entre 20 e 29 anos, 8 (36,4%) de 30 e 39 anos, 7 (31,8%) entre 40 e 49 anos, 3 (13,6%) 50 e 59 anos e 1 (4,5%) 60 e 69 anos. Cerca de 95,5 % relataram participar, nos últimos 2 anos, de eventos científicos na área temática da pesquisa, 13 (59,1%) realizavam estudos sobre a CIF e 14 (63,6%) a utilizavam na sua prática clínica. Todas as categorias obtiveram uma concordância de IVC >0,80, sendo assim, o instrumento, pode ser considerado validado. Na maioria das categorias, os juízes fizeram sugestões que visavam às modificações de termos, para serem substituídos ou reformulados, e os qualificadores repontuados, de acordo com os percentuais da CIF. Após consenso entre os pesquisadores foram realizadas as alterações sugeridas e elaborada a versão final do instrumento, com aplicação do pré-teste. O instrumento validado poderá contribuir para prática clínica dos profissionais da saúde, no processo de avaliação da funcionalidade dos indivíduos com lesão medular aguda

Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is a trauma with devastating effects on the lives of individuals. It is estimated that more than 130,000 people are affected by SCI each year worldwide. Approximately 45% of all injuries are complete, leaving only a small chance of functional recovery. The complications caused by SCI influence the quality of life of individuals, increase the demands for care, and increase the social and economic burden of health care. This is a methodological study, which aimed to construct and validate an instrument based on the summarized ICF Core Set for individuals with traumatic acute spinal cord injury. This research was approved by the Ethics Committee and developed in the following stages: 1 - Development of the instrument from the summarized ICF core set for acute spinal cord injury: "Development and validation of an instrument based on the summarized core set of the International Classification of Functioning for individuals with acute spinal cord injury"; 2 - Validation of the instrument and data collection by the judges; 3 - Application of the pre-test. The instrument for face and content validation consisted of 15 categories that integrated the ICF components: body functions (6), body structure (2), activities and participation (2), environmental factors and personal factors (5). The content validity of the instrument was done by a committee of twenty-two judges. Of the 22 judges, 18 (81.8%) were female and 4 (18.2%) were male. The majority were young, averaging 40±10 years, with 3 participants (13.6%) aged 20-29 years, 8 (36.4%) 30-39 years, 7 (31.8%) 40-49 years, 3 (13.6%) 50-59 years, and 1 (4.5%) 60-69 years. About 95.5% reported participating, in the last 2 years, of scientific events in the thematic area of the research, 13 (59.1%) carried out studies about the ICF and 14 (63.6%) used it in their clinical practice. All categories obtained a CVI agreement >0.80, thus, the instrument can be considered validated. In most of the categories, the judges made suggestions that aimed at the modification of terms, to be replaced or reformulated, and the qualifiers were re-assessed, according to the ICF percentages. After consensus was reached among the researchers, the suggested changes were made and the final version of the instrument was prepared, with the application of the pre-test. The validated instrument may contribute to the clinical practice of health professionals in the process of evaluating the functionality of individuals with acute spinal cord injury

Evaluación de discapacidad en los defectos congénitos: una mirada desde la Clasificación Internacional del Funcionamiento, la Discapacidad y la Salud (CIF) / Evaluation of Disability in Birth Defects: A view from the International Classification of Functioning (ICF) / Avaliação de deficiência nos defeitos congênitos: um olhar desde a Classificação Internacional do Funcionamento, a Deficiência e a Saúde, CIF

Introducción: en la actualidad, coexisten dos modelos contrapuestos que han servido como marco para la evaluación y tratamiento de la discapacidad: el modelo rehabilitador y el social. Sin embargo, en 2001, la üms recurre a una tercera vía de interpretación a través de la síntesis de estos dos modelos, que derivan en la Clasificación Internacional del Funcionamiento, la Discapacidad y la Salud (CIF). Objetivo: evaluar la discapacidad a través de la CIF, en pacientes con defectos congénitos atendidos en un hospital de cuarto nivel de la ciudad de Cali. Materiales y métodos: estudio transversal que incluyó 40 pacientes (niños y adolescentes) con defectos congénitos y sus perfiles de funcionamiento obtenidos a través de la CIF. Resultados: las funciones que con mayor frecuencia se reportaron alteradas en el componente corporal fueron las mentales; las neuromusculoesqueléticas y de movimiento; las del sistema digestivo, metabólico y endocrino, y las sensoriales. En el componente de actividades y participación, las limitaciones se centraron en el aprendizaje básico, movilidad y comunicación. En el componente de factores contextuales, los profesionales de la salud y la tecnología para jugar, fueron los principales facilitadores reportados. Conclusiones: la utilización de herramientas integrales como la CIF para la evaluación, intervención y seguimiento de los pacientes con defectos congénitos, permitirá considerar al fenómeno de la discapacidad como un problema de origen social y, principalmente, como un asunto centrado en la inclusión de las personas en la sociedad

Introduction: The concept of disability has evolved throughout history going through the bases of three models that have served as a framework for the evaluation and treatment of disability: the exclusion model, the rehabilitation model, and the social model; which co-exist in different degrees. Because of this coexistence, in society there are still imaginary ideas and beliefs about disability that focus solely on the traits of people and in what they are unable to do. Objective: To evaluate the degree of disability through the International Classification of Functioning (ICF), in patients with birth defects who attend a high complexity hospital in the city of Cali. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional study that included 40 patients (children and adolescents) with birth defects and their functional profiles obtained from the ICF. Results: The altered functions that are most frequently reported in the corporal component are the mental; the neuromusculoskeletal and movement; the digestive, metabolic and endocrine system, and the sensorial functions. In the activities and participation component constraints were focused on basic learning, mobility and communication. In the contextual factors component, the health professionals and technology for playful activities were the main facilitators reported. Conclusions: the use of integrated tools such as ICF for evaluation, intervention and follow up of patients with birth defects, will allow to consider the phenomenon of disability as a problem of social origin and, mainly, as a matter centered on the inclusion of people in society

Introdução: Na atualidade, coexistem dois modelos contrapostos que têm servido como marco para a avaliação e tratamento da deficiência: o modelo reabilitador e o social.

Materiais e métodos: Estudo transversal que incluiu 40 pacientes (crianças e adolescentes) com defeitos congênitos e seus perfis de funcionamento obtidos através da CIF. Resultados: As funções que com maior frequência reportaram-se alteradas no componente corporal foram as mentais; as neuromusculoesqueléticas e de movimento; as do sistema digestivo, metabólico e endócrino, e as sensoriais. No componente de atividades e participação, as limitações centraram-se na aprendizagem básica, mobilidade e comunicação. No componente de fatores contextuais, os profissionais da saúde e a tecnologia para brincar, foram os principais facilitadores reportados. Conclusões: A utilização de ferramentas integrais como a CIF para a avaliação, intervenção e seguimento dos pacientes com defeitos congênitos, permitirá considerar ao fenômeno da deficiência como um problema de origem social e, principalmente, como um assunto centrado na inclusão das pessoas na sociedade

Portraying the amputation of lower limbs: an approach using ICF / Retratando a amputação de membros inferiores: uma abordagem por meio da CIF

Abstract Introduction: Amputation is a trauma that involves important functional, psychological and social sequelae. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is based on the biopsychosocial model and enables understanding functioning and disability through the interaction of its components. Objective: This study's aim was to depict functioning and disability using the ICF conceptual interaction model from the perspective of individuals who suffered a lower limb amputation. Methods: The qualitative approach was used and included a semi-structured interview held with six participants. Results: All the participants used assistive devices such as crutches, wheelchairs or walkers: three used prostheses and the other three emphasized their difficulty in acquiring prostheses from the Social Security Service or Public Health System. Social support, especially that provided by family and friends, is a major facilitator. The importance of acquiring and adapting prostheses to enable the rehabilitation of amputees became clear; however, rehabilitation is not restricted to the acquisition of prostheses. A rehabilitation program directed to restoring functionality is needed. Conclusion: The multidirectional approach using the ICF's conceptual interaction model enabled important insights concerning public health issues, such as obstacles related to the access to rehabilitation services and a lack of preparedness on the part of health professionals in relation to care provided to amputees.

Resumo Introdução: A amputação é um trauma que envolve sequelas funcionais, psicológicas e sociais importantes. A Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde (CIF) baseia-se no modelo biopsicossocial e permite a compreensão dos processos de funcionalidade e incapacidade através da interação dos seus componentes. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi retratar o processo de funcionalidade e de incapacidade por meio do Modelo de Interação Conceitual da CIF a partir da percepção de pessoas que sofreram amputação de membro inferior. Métodos: Utilizou-se abordagem qualitativa com realização de uma entrevista semiestruturada, aplicadas em seis sujeitos. Resultados: Todos os entrevistados faziam uso de dispositivos auxiliares de marcha como muletas, cadeira de rodas, andadores sendo que três deles possuíam prótese, e os outros três destacaram dificuldades de aquisição da mesma por meio do SUS ou Previdência Social. O suporte social, sobretudo aquele oferecido pelos familiares e amigos, é importante facilitador. Ficou evidenciada a importância da aquisição e adaptação à prótese para reabilitação da pessoa amputada, porém reabilitar não é somente adquirir a prótese, pois é preciso da reabilitação para a funcionalidade. Conclusão: A abordagem multidirecional, por meio modelo de interação conceitual da CIF, permitiu refletir questões importantes da saúde pública, como os obstáculos relacionados ao acesso aos serviços de reabilitação e o despreparo dos profissionais de saúde no cuidado à pessoa amputada.

Validation of the 36-item version of the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2. 0 (WHODAS 2.0) for assessing women's disability and functioning associated with maternal morbidity / Validação da versão de 36 itens do WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2. 0 (WHODAS 2.0) para a avaliação de incapacidade e funcionalidade da mulher associada à morbidade materna

Abstract Objective To validate the translation and adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese of 36 items from the World Health Organizaton Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0), regarding their content and structure (construct), in a female population after pregnancy. Methods This is a validation of an instrument for the evaluation of disability and functioning and an assessment of its psychometric properties, performed in a tertiary maternity and a referral center specialized in high-risk pregnancies in Brazil. A sample of 638 women in different postpartum periods who had either a normal or a complicated pregnancy was included. The structure was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), while the content and relationships among the domains were assessed through Pearson's correlation coefficient. The sociodemographic characteristics were identified, and the mean scores with their standard deviations for the 36 questions of the WHODAS 2.0 were calculated. The internal consistency was evaluated byCronbach's α. Results Cronbach's α was higher than 0.79 for both sets of questons of the questionnaire. The EFA and CFA for the main 32 questions exhibited a total variance of 54.7% (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin [KMO] measure of sampling adequacy = 0.934; p < 0.001) and 53.47% (KMO = 0.934; p < 0.001) respectively. There was a significant correlation among the 6 domains (r = 0.571-0.876), and a moderate correlation among all domains (r = 0.476-0.694). Conclusion The version of the WHODAS 2.0 instrument adapted to Brazilian Portuguese showed good psychometric properties in this sample, and therefore could be applied to populations of women regarding their reproductive history.

Introduction: Schizophrenia is associated to progressive deterioration of the person's skills in several areas of life. However this fact has not been studied in our population. Objective: To identify the effect of schizophrenia on functioning according to time. Design: Analytical correlational, cross-sectional observational study. Location: Hospital Hermilio Valdizan, Lima, Peru. Participants: Outpatient subjects diagnosed with schizophrenia. Interventions. Interview and application of scales to 136 patients in 4 groups of 34 according to time of sickness. The analysis was performed with t-student tests, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann Whitney U test and Spearman correlation, with a 95% confidence interval, p <0.05. Main outcome measures: Measurement of functioning with the Short Scale Performance Review (FAST) and measurement of psychotic symptoms with the Brief Psychiatric symptoms Rating Scale (BPRS) were done. The FAST score is inversely proportional to functioning. Results: 57% of patients were male, 47.9% in the 21-30 age range. The FAST score for the group with less than 1 year of disease was 50.2 + 9.3, for 1-5 years 57.1 + 10.6, 6-10 years 59.0 + 9.7, and more than 10 years of illness 60.2 + 10.1. There was a significant difference (p <0.005) for in functioning between the group with less than one year of disease versus the other groups. Conclusions: Patients with less than one year of disease showed better functioning. Decreased functioning was observed after the first year of diagnosis, without distinction between groups. There is a need for early rehabilitation strategies starting in schizophrenia.

Is WHODAS 2.0 Useful for Colorectal Cancer Survivors?

OBJECTIVE: To compare the disability level of colorectal cancer survivors with and without stoma by using the Korean version of the 12-item, interview-administered World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (Korean version of WHODAS 2.0). METHODS: This is a multicenter (five tertiary university hospitals and the Korea Ostomy Association) and cross-sectional survey. Colorectal cancer survivors with and without stoma were interviewed. Survey measured disability level using the Korean version of WHODAS 2.0 and health-related quality of life using the SF-36. RESULTS: A significant difference was observed between patients with and without a stoma in two subdomains: getting around (31.1 vs. 20.3; p=0.013) and participation in society (32.3 vs. 22.2; p=0.028). After adjusting for age, gender, and time since surgery, having a stoma was associated with severe to extreme disabilities in participation (OR=2.72, p=0.045). The Korean version of WHODAS 2.0 showed satisfactory internal consistency (r=0.96) and convergent validity. CONCLUSION: Patients with stoma participated less in society than those without stoma. The Korean version of WHODAS 2.0 is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring disability in Korean colorectal cancer patients.

Guía metodológica para elaborar el diagnóstico fisioterapéutico según la Clasificación Internacional del Funcionamiento (CIF), de la discapacidad y de la salud / Methodological guide for preparing the physiotherapy diagnosis according to the International Classification of Functioning (CIF), disability and health

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo plantear una guía metodológica que permita a los estudiantes de la Carrera de Fisioterapia y Kinesiología unificar criterios para desarrollar los procesos diagnósticos desde el enfoque biopsicosocial, a partir de las evidencias obtenidas en la evaluación inicial y tomando como base la Clasificación Internacional del Funcionamiento, de la Discapacidad y de la Salud (CIF). La idea surge a raíz de las dificultades que se tiene en la formulación del diagnóstico fisioterapéutico, más allá del referente “enfermedad”, asumiendo una identidad propia desde su objeto de estudio como es la función - disfunción del movimiento humano. Se propone el uso de la CIF porque incorpora en su estructura categorías desde la perspectiva corporal, individual y social, los cuales tienen relación estrecha con la naturaleza y niveles de estudio de la Fisioterapia y Kinesiología. Solo así se provee un marco inicial que dinamiza la organización de datos y opiniones clínicas facilitando un sistema de clasificación de acuerdo con las funciones y estructuras corporales, las actividades corporales y la participación en las actividades de la vida diaria, así como la identificación de barreras o facilitadores en el entorno ambiental y las características individuales que forman parte del estado de salud de las personas.

This article aims to raise a methodological guide that allows students of the School of Physiotherapy and Kinesiology unify criteria to develop diagnostic processes from the biopsychosocial approach, based on the evidence obtained in the initial evaluation and based on the ranking International of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). The idea stems from the difficulties you have in the formulation of physiotherapy diagnosis, beyond the reference “disease”, assuming an identity from its subject as it is the function - dysfunction of human movement. The use of ICF is proposed that incorporates in its structure categories from body, individual and societal perspective, which are closely related to the nature and levels of study of physiotherapy and kinesiology. Only then an initial framework that streamlines the organization of data and clinical opinion facilitating a classification system according to body functions and structures, bodily activities and participation in activities of daily living, as well as identifying barriers is provided or facilitators in the ambient environment and the individual characteristics that are part of the health status of people.

Feasibility of Applying the Extended ICF Core Set for Stroke to Clinical Settings in Rehabilitation: A Preliminary Study

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the potential feasibility of application of the extended International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Core Set for stroke. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 40 stroke outpatients (>6 months after onset) admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine for comprehensive rehabilitation. Clinical information of the patients were respectively evaluated to link to the 166 second-level categories of the extended ICF Core Set for stroke. RESULTS: Clinical information could be linked to 111 different ICF categories, 58 categories of the body functions component, eight categories of the body structures component, 38 categories of the activities and participation component, and seven categories of the environmental factors component. CONCLUSION: The body functions component might be feasible for application of the extended ICF Core Set for stroke to clinical settings. The activities and participation component and environmental factors component may not be directly applied to clinical settings without additional evaluation tools including interview and questionnaire.

Introduction: ADHD is one of the most common diagnoses in child psychiatry, its early diagnosis is of great importance for intervention at family, school and social environment. Based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), a questionnaire was designed to assess activity limitations and participation restrictions in children with ADHD. The questionnaire was called "CLARP-ADHD Parent and Teacher Version". Objective: To determine the degree of internal consistency of the CLARP-ADHD questionnaire, and its concurrent validity with the "Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire SDQ parent and teacher version". Material and Methods: A sample of 203 children aged 6 to 12 with ADHD, currently attending school in five Colombian cities. The questionnaires were applied to parents and teachers. The internal consistency analysis was performed through Cronbach coefficient and concurrent validity using the Spearman correlation coefficient utilizing multiple and unique predictors through multiple linear regression as well as simple regression models. Results: A high internal consistency was found for global questionnaires for each of its domains. The CLARP-ADHD for parents gave as result an internal consistency of 0.83, and the CLARP-ADHD for teachers one of 0.93. Concurrent validity was found between the CLARP-ADHD and the SDQ Parent and Teacher version; also, concurrence between the CLARPADHD for Teachers and the SDQTeachers was found, as well as between CLARPADHD for Parents and CLARP ADHD Teachers, given by p values of p < 0.001.

Diabetic Specific Health-related Quality of Life Assessment and ICF Core Sets for Diabetes Mellitus(review) / 中国康复理论与实践

@#15 year literatures from databases such as MEDLINE, PUBMED, and CNKI were reviewed. The foundings indicate that there are a lot of scales to assess diabetic specific quality of life, but no one can involve the following aspects: body function, body structure, activity and participation, and environmental factors except ICF core sets for diabetes mellitus which involve the four aspects listed above. Nowadays an international multi-center validation study of the ICF core sets for 12 chronic conditions is ongoing, and so far there has been no report on the validation of the ICF core sets for diabetes mellitus yet. Through the validation study of the ICF core sets for diabetes mellitus, it is anticipated that the ICF core sets for diabetes mellitus can comprehensively describe health and functional status of diabetic patients, thus can create a valid and common tool or language to assess diabetes mellitus. It will facilitate communication between different disciplines and countries, provide effective interventions and finally improve health and functional level of diabetic patients.
