Case Studies
An illustration using the ICF in rehab practice
To illustrate the use of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) in rehabilitation practice, Swiss Paraplegic Research initiated the project "Case studies" in 2007. Using ICF tools within the framework of the "Rehab-Cycle", real-life persons with spinal cord injury and their respective health care situations were described . The results are presented on the website www.icf-casestudies.org/.
