RESUMO
Objective: This paper describes the development of the Protocol for Identification of Problems for Rehabilitation (PLPR), a tool to standardize collection of functional information based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). Development of the protocol: The PLPR was developed for use during the initial contact with adult patients within a public network of rehabilitation services. Steps to develop the protocol included: survey of the ICF codes most used by clinical professionals; compilation of data from functional instruments; development and pilot testing of a preliminary version in the service settings; discussion with professionals and development of the final version. The final version includes: user identification; social and health information; brief functional description (BFD); summary of the BFD; and PLPR results. Further testing of the final version will be conducted. Conclusions: The protocol standardizes the first contact between the user and the rehabilitation service. Systematic use of the protocol could also help to create a functional database that would allow comparisons between rehabilitation services and countries over time.

OBJECTIVE: To identify environmental and personal factors associated with social participation in adults with various diseases/health conditions residing in the urban areas of the Belo Horizonte Metropolitan Region, Minas Gerais, Brazil. METHODS: Individual characteristics, social participation, and perception of environmental barriers of 226 patients treated at a public rehabilitation referral service were evaluated. Regression analyses with hierarchical entry of data were performed to verify the association of personal and environmental factors with social participation. RESULTS: More years of schooling, being engaged in the labor market, and consuming alcohol are conditions that increase the social participation of patients. Natural environment, transportation, access to health services, and social capital are perceived as the most important barriers to participation. Based on the linear regression analysis, the adjusted coefficient (R²adj) of the full model was 0.42 (P = 0.000). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study may contribute to the planning and implementation of interventions and public policies at the individual and contextual level that are considered appropriate for reducing barriers and facilitate full participation.
OBJETIVO: Determinar los factores ambientales y personales asociados con la participación social de los adultos, en diversas situaciones de enfermedad o salud, que residen en las zonas urbanas de la Región Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, del estado de Minas Gerais (Brasil). MÉTODOS: Se evaluaron las características individuales, la participación social y la percepción de las barreras ambientales de 226 pacientes tratados en un servicio público de rehabilitación de referencia. Se llevaron a cabo análisis de regresión con entrada jerárquica de los datos para comprobar la asociación de los factores personales y ambientales con la participación social. RESULTADOS: Un mayor número de años de escolarización, estar ocupado en el mercado de trabajo y el consumo de alcohol son condiciones que aumentan la participación social de los pacientes. El entorno natural, el transporte, el acceso a los servicios de salud y el capital social se perciben como las barreras más importantes a la participación. Con base en el análisis de regresión lineal, el coeficiente ajustado (R²aj) del modelo total fue de 0,42 (P = 0,000). CONCLUSIONES: Los resultados de este estudio pueden contribuir a la planificación y la ejecución de las intervenciones y políticas públicas a escalas individual y contextual que se consideren apropiadas para reducir las barreras y facilitar la plena participación.
