Abstract:

Frailty has emerged as an increasingly important concept in the understanding and care of the elderly. Despite this, no consensus has been established in the frailty literature regarding a theoretical framework, operational definition, or measurement strategies. The International Classification of Function, Disability and Health (ICF) provides an attractive framework to exemplify and consolidate the diverse literature on frailty. The ICF is a classification system developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) to provide

Abstract:

Background: Effective collaboration between health professionals can reduce medical errors and assist in interpretation of health information resulting in improved patient care. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) has been suggested as a potential framework to help health professionals develop a common language for better collaboration and to provide more holistic care.

Analyzed documents contained lists of health terms recommended to be included in the health record (HR) (I), requested information in health questionnaires (II) and the content of free text notes in health records (HRs) (III).

Abstract:

Introduction: Maintaining good oral health may be more important for children with disabilities than others, since problems with oral health may increase the impact of a disability, or the medical condition may increase the risk for poor oral health. In addition, the risk for oral health problems may be influenced by the functioning of the child. Functioning can also affect the child’s ability to cooperate in the dental setting, and how dental treatment is performed. A medical diagnosis alone does not provide enough information about a child’s functioning, nor oral health. Thus, there is a nee

Background: Physical activity questionnaires (PAQ) have been extensively used to determine physical activity (PA) levels. Most PAQ are derived from an energy expenditure-based perspective and assess activities with a certain intensity level. Activities with a moderate or vigorous intensity level are predominantly used to determine a person’s PA level in terms of quantity. Studies show that the time spent engaging in moderate and vigorous intensity PA does not appropriately reflect the actual PA behavior of older people because they perform more functional, everyday activities.

Abstract:

Community walking is a multifactorial task and an important functional goal for stroke survivors. Measuring community walking is challenging because there is not a good understanding of what is considered successful community walking or how this could be measured. Physiotherapists currently use a range of measures to assess community walking. Furthermore, the factors contributing to community walking that are captured by these measures are not yet well understood. This thesis, comprising two studies, explores these gaps. The first study is a qualitative exploration of physiotherapists’ perspec

This approach moves the therapeutic goal from symptomatic remission to the recovery of satisfactory and proper functioning.

Background La ricerca ha affrontato il tema del benessere psicofisico, inserendosi nella cornice teorica del paradigma biopsicosociale assunto nella definizione di salute della WHO. Sono stati presi in considerazione i diversi modelli di salute ed il problema della promozione della salute, con particolare attenzione ai bambini con disabilità, facendo riferimento anche all’International Classification of Functioning, Disabilities and Health (ICF). A livello empirico lo studio si è focalizzato sull’analisi di alcune dimensioni del benessere psicologico che concorrono alla promozione della salut

Abstract:

Brachial plexus Injury (BPI) occurs following trauma to the nerves as they exit the spinal cord in the neck. Dependent on the site and degree of the initial trauma, people with BPI display a board spectrum of ability to use their affected arm to perform day-to-day activities. BPI is a heterogeneous condition that has a significant impact on how the individuals use their arm. Some may only achieve simple stabilising or carrying tasks; others may undertake more complex movements that use the whole arm and hand. Historically, outcomes following adult traumatic BPI have been discussed in terms of

Abstract:

Background: The International Classification of Function, Disability and Health (ICF) describes health using 1424 categories from 4 components: body functions (BF), body structures (BS), activities and participation (AP) and contextual factors (environmental (EF) and personal (PF)). In this study the ICF was used to describe and compare aspects of ANCA-Associated Vasculitis (AAV) measured in clinical trials and those important to clinicians and patients. Methods: Individual interviews and focus groups were used to capture the perspective of AAV patients. Clinicians’ perspective was obtained wi

Abstract:

The overall aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of forced use on arm and hand recovery after stroke by applying a restraining sling on the non-affected arm and to investigate psychometric properties of selected upper limb measures. Papers I and II reported a randomised trial with 1- and 3-month follow-ups. Thirty patients 1 to 6 months after stroke were included and received regular training for 2 weeks of intervention. The forced-use group had in addition a restraining sling on the non-paretic arm. Outcome measures were the Fugl-Meyer Assessment, the Modified Ashworth scale, the 16-hole peg

Introdução: A incapacidade no idoso é multidimensional, envolvendo aspectos de saúde física, emocional, cognitiva, ambiental e social. Os fatores ambientais têm um impacto importante como facilitadores ou barreiras nas atividades e participação social do idoso, especialmente relacionado ao ambiente de moradia e a capacidade de continuar vivendo no próprio domicilio apesar do envelhecimento (Aging in place). Políticas públicas devem ser pensadas levando a questão do Aging in place em consideração. Objetivos: investigar o impacto dos fatores ambientais na incapacidade de idosos que residem em co

Abstract:

Increasing lifestyle-related ill health, escalating health care costs, expanding health inequalities within and between nations, and an aging population are challenges facing governments globally. Governments, especially in industrialized countries like Sweden, are investing in health promotion and health communication, especially in ICT-supported health communication as a way to increase health literacy and empowerment at individual and population levels. Studies show that many eHealth communication efforts are narrow in scope, medical oriented and therefore not enough to address the complexi
