Abstract:
SummaryA common framework for describing health and health related states is needed in order to make this information comparable and of value. The World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), which has been approved by all its member states, provides this common language and framework. The article provides an overview of the ICF taxonomy, introduces the conceptual model which underpins the ICF and elaborates on how the ICF is used at population and clinical level. Furthermore, the article presents key features of the ICF tooling environment and outlines current and future developments of the classification, in particular the conceptual and operational alignment of ICF and ICD in the context of the ongoing ICD revision process. Finally, the paper examines the formulation of disability in the diagnosis of mental disorders in ICD and DSM and argues for separate operational assessment of disability through the ICF and ICF based assessment instruments such as the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0).

Abstract:
Classification systems constitute an important contribution to nursing practice, as they provide standardized frameworks for communication between nurses and other healthcare professionals. International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) provides a unified and standardized language, as well as a working structure, for the description of health and health-related states. This paper aims to describe some of the available classifications used in nursing practice and to identify the potential value provided by the application of the World Health Organization (WHO) International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health by all healthcare professionals. With this purpose, a concept analysis was conducted. The relevant nursing classifications were analyzed and related evidence on the use of ICF classification was reviewed to provide a discussion on the application of ICF in nursing practice. The use of ICF could be beneficial in different areas of nursing practice, as it provides a more comprehensive framework to classify nursing outcomes and interventions, improving areas such as interprofessional communication and optimization of care. Although there is published evidence on the use of ICF core sets, further research is needed on this area.

Abstract:
At OMERACT 8 in May 2006 in Malta, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) was introduced as a universal model and a universal classification to describe human functioning. The potential usefulness of the ICF for the OMERACT process was highlighted and reported in a position paper following the OMERACT 8 meeting. Since then representatives of several OMERACT working groups with an interest in the ICF joined an OMERACT-ICF reference group. Most members had experience with the ICF and worked further to integrate the ICF into OMERACT. We describe the main roles of the ICF in the OMERACT process and the challenges when practice confronts theory.

Abstract:
Development of a unified classification system to replace four of the systems currently used in disability athletics (i.e., track and field) has been widely advocated. The definition and purpose of classification, underpinned by taxonomic principles and collectively endorsed by relevant disability sport organizations, have not been developed but are required for successful implementation of a unified system. It is posited that the International classification of functioning, disability, and health (ICF), published by the World Health Organization (2001), and current disability athletics systems are, fundamentally, classifications of the functioning and disability associated with health conditions and are highly interrelated. A rationale for basing a unified disability athletics system on ICF is established. Following taxonomic analysis of the current systems, the definition and purpose of a unified disability athletics classification are proposed and discussed. The proposed taxonomic framework and definitions have implications for other disability sport classification systems.

Abstract:
Summary Background: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is the World Health Organization’s standard for describing health and health-related states. Examples of how the ICF has been used in Electronic Health Records (EHRs) have not been systematically summarized and described yet. Objectives: To provide a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature about the ICF’s use in EHRs, including related challenges and benefits. Methods: Peer-reviewed literature, published between January 2001 and July 2015 was retrieved from Medline®, CINAHL®, Scopus®, and ProQuest® Social Sciences using search terms related to ICF and EHR concepts. Publications were categorized according to three groups: Requirement specification, development and implementation. Information extraction was conducted according to a qualitative content analysis method, deductively informed by the evaluation framework for Health Information Systems: Human, Organization and Technology-fit (HOT-fit). Results: Of 325 retrieved articles, 17 publications were included; 4 were categorized as requirement specification, 7 as development, and 6 as implementation publications. Information regarding the HOT-fit evaluation framework was summarized. Main benefits of using the ICF in EHRs were its unique comprehensive perspective on health and its interdisciplinary focus. Main challenges included the fact that the ICF is not structured as a formal terminology as well as the need for a reduced number of ICF codes for more feasible and practical use. Conclusion: Different approaches and technical solutions exist for integrating the ICF in EHRs, such as combining the ICF with other existing standards for EHR or selecting ICF codes with natural language processing. Though the use of the ICF in EHRs is beneficial as this review revealed, the ICF could profit from further improvements such as formalizing the knowledge representation in the ICF to support and enhance interoperability.Citation: Maritz R, Aronsky D, Prodinger B.

Abstract:
The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a classification of the World Health Organization (WHO). It is a reference document for the description of phenomena related to functioning and disability. The aim of the present study is to assess the relationship between the theoretical assumptions of ICF and the field of Health Promotion. The dissemination of ICF has been widely documented in literature over the last few years, however, there is a large gap between enthusiasm with the paradigm change that the classification proposes and its effective incorporation in the different environments of health care. This study presents an example of ICF operationalization. The biopsychosocial evaluation model of ICF presented is a strategy of light technology in health that advances towards the proposals of the field of Health Promotion.

Abstract:
Abstract This article begins with a consult of a patient using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF), published by the World Health Organization in 2001. The ICF framework serves as the conceptual model for the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides), Sixth Edition. In contrast to the issues of morbidity-centric documentation schemas, the ICF platform provides a standardized nomenclature to chart functioning, specifically an integrative biopsychosocial model of functioning that defines the components of functioning. The ICF qualifier serves as the titratable dimension of function; the qualifier not only satisfies the need for charting progress but also, when aggregated, provides the possibility of identifying the quantitative metrics of a cohort (eg, service needs, length of hospitalization, level of care, functional outcomes, and return-to-work potential). Implementing ICF into routine documentation moves practitioners toward the concept of functioning not as a consequence of disease but rather toward the real-life dynamics among health condition, body function, body structure, and environmental factors that determine functioning. ICF will be an essential basis for the standardization of data concerning all aspects of human functioning and disability around the world. ICF will be useful for persons with all forms of disabilities, not only for identifying health care and rehabilitative needs but also in identifying and measuring the effect of the physical and social environments.

Abstract:
AbstractThe WHO’s (2001) International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) model conceptualizes health from an ecological perspective. It has been implemented by many professionals as the standard health classification framework that guides providers’ decisions regarding assessment tools and targeted interventions. Despite this model’s prevalence among many healthcare providers, the ICF framework remains largely underutilized by many in the counseling fields. This conceptual paper provides an overview of the strengths of the ICF model and ICF-based measurements, and demonstrates its clinical, research, and educational value. A case study is presented to guide counselors and counselor educators through application of the ICF model in various contexts to encourage expanded use of the model. Use of the ICF model among counseling professionals, educators, and researchers is recommended as one way to enhance measurement of clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) considers multiples aspects of functionality. It is believed that this tool can help to classify the functionality of older adults with low back pain (LBP) . Objectives: To describe the functionality of active older adults with LBP according to the ICF. Methods: A transversal study was conducted using the brief ICF core set for low back pain, to establish functional profiles of 40 older adults. The ICF categories were considered valid when ≥20% of participants showed some disability. Results: Thirty-two of the 35 categories of the brief ICF core set could be considered representative of the sample. Conclusion: The brief ICF core set for LBP results demonstrated that this classification system is representative for describing the functional profile of the sample.

Abstract:
Abstract An Individualized Education Plan (IEP) is a multi-disciplinary, team-developed plan that is required for a child receiving special education services. IEPs are tools for setting objectives that are responsive to students with special needs. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a hierarchical classification for human functioning and disability developed by the World Health Organization (WHO). The ICF classification can be used as a structural and conceptual instrument in goal setting. In this study the educational IEP objectives of five Finnish students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are examined within the ICF framework. The focus is in the goals concerning the development of communication and social behavior because the main criteria for ASD comprise disabilities and challenges in communication and social behavior. The aim of the study was to assess the usefulness of the ICF coding system with regard to educational goals and objectives of students with ASD. The core content of the goals was extracted to linking units, which were coded into categories of the ICF classification. The results revealed that only few of possible ICF categories were used, the goals linked to communication technologies were heavily stressed, and the relation between the goals and general curriculum was vague. As a conclusion it is suggested that teachers and multi-disciplinary teams might benefit from standardizing their mutual conceptual framework with the help of the ICF when setting goals or objectives for students with disabilities.

Abstract:

Sjuksköterskan är dokumentationsskyldig enligt ett flertal lagar och förordningar. Dessa ger oss ramar men inga enhetliga riktlinjer och verktyg för hur strukturen för omvårdnadsdokumentationen ska se ut. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att granska hur den vetenskapliga litteraturen beskriver omvårdnadsdokumentationen utifrån VIPS-modellen och ICF som tillämpbar inom omvårdnadsdomänen. Metoden som användes var litteraturstudie där sammanlagt 18 st. vetenskapliga artiklar granskades. Resultatet påvisar brister i omvårdnadsdokumentationen. Få av de granskade journalerna uppfyllde kraven enligt patientjournallagen. Enligt granskningsinstrumentet Cat-ch-Ing förbättrades dokumentationen efter utbildningsinterventioner som byggde på VIPS-modellen.

Det framkom en diskrepans mellan patienters egen uppfattning av sina problem, sjuksköterskors uppfattning och vad som fanns dokumenterat i journalen. Sjuksköterskan skriver ner sina iakttagelser utan att stämma av med patienten. Studierna visade att de flesta omvårdnadsdiagnoser kunde omvandlas till International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) koder. I vissa fall ansåg sjuksköterskorna att koderna inte var tillräckligt specifika. Konklusionen är att en dokumentationsmodell eller klassifikation inte är tillräckligt för att säkerställa kvalitén i omvårdnadsdokumentationen utifrån omvårdnadsprocessen och gällande lagar. Som komplement krävs kontinuerlig journalgranskning och återkommande utbildningsinterventioner. ICF-klassifikationen anses tillämpbar inom omvårdnadsdomänen och kan främja en tvärprofessionell kommunikation. De tillkortakommanden som identifierats kan undanröjas genom att sjuksköterskor tar en aktiv roll i kommande revisioner. Om ICF skall implementeras måste det ske nationellt.

Dokumentationen bör förenklas i så stor grad som möjligt i standardiserade modeller så tid kan ägnas åt det patientnära arbetet. ICF är en strukturerad modell som kan underlätta dokumentationsarbetet.

Abstract:
Objective. The overall aim of this thesis was to evaluate the biopsychosocial consequences after stroke and test the validity of the ICF Core Sets for Stroke during one year post-stroke. Material and Methods. Studies I, II and III were based on data from a prospective cohort study with 120 stroke survivors who were recruited at admission to stroke units in western Sweden and were followed-up at six weeks, three months and one year after stroke event. Repeated assessments were done through face-to-face interviews consisting of a battery of questions based on the Stroke ICF Core Set (59 categories of Body Functions, 59 of Activities and Participation and 37 of Environmental Factors) and several questionnaires (EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D), Stroke Impact Scale (SIS), Medical Outcome Study Short Form 36 (SF-36), Self administered Comorbidity Questionnaire (SCQ), information on health care and social services utilization and spouse support). Study IV was based on data from the multi-center cross-sectional validation study of the Stroke ICF Core Set with 757 stroke survivors from China, Germany, Italy and Sweden. Results. Study I: A total of 28 of 59 ICF categories of Body Functions and a total of 41 of 59 categories of Activities and Participation were significant problems for stroke survivors at six weeks and three months. These categories showed a good discriminative ability to distinguish between independent (≤ 2 on modified Ranking Scale (mRS)) and dependent (> 2 on mRS) stroke survivors. Study II: Most stroke survivors felt satisfied with their stroke care and rehabilitation during three months post-stroke. Frequently perceived environmental facilitators could be documented with eleven of 37 ICF categories of Environmental Factors. Only physical geography, such as hills, was a common perceived barrier. Study III: Independent factors of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) varied over time. Almost all variance in HRQoL was explained by categories within Body Functions and within Activities and Participation during the first three months, while at one year only half of the variance could be explained by categories within either Body Functions or Environmental Factors. Problems with personal and energy functions, as well as limited recreational activities, were recurringly associated with poorer HRQoL. Study IV: It was possible to integrate ICF categories of Body Functions and Structures, Activities and Participation into a cross-cultural measurement with good reliability providing summary scores of the overall functioning of stroke survivors. However, the five-point ICF qualifier scale was not consistently applicable. Conclusions. The results of the present thesis showed that the ICF,particularly the ICF Core Set for Stroke, was a valid and practical tool for documenting the multi-faceted biopsychosocial problems and consequences after stroke structured with one common terminology throughout the long chain of care and rehabilitation. The opportunity to integrate ICF categories of Body Functions and Structures, Activities and Participation into a measurement provides new possibilities for monitoring, following-up and comparing overall functioning after stroke.
Syfte. Avhandlingen i sin helhet syftade till att fastställa de mångfaldiga biopsykosociala konsekvenserna under ett års tid efter stroke med hjälp av ICF och att testa validiteten av det nyetablerade Stroke ICF Core Set med avsikt att mäta funktionstillstånd efter stroke. Material och metod. I studie I, II och III ingår data från en ett års prospektiv kohortstudie med 120 personer med stroke som vårdades på strokeenheter i Västsverige och somföljdes upp efter sex veckor, tre månader och efter ett år. Datainsamlingen genomfördes med intervjuer som bestod av ett batteri av frågor grundat påStroke ICF Core Set, EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D), Stroke Impact Scale (SIS), Medical Outcome Study Short Form 36 (SF-36), Self-administered Comorbidity Questionnaire (SCQ), och information om insatser från hälso- och sjukvård, socialtjänst och familj. I studie I analyserades de 59 ICFkategorierna gällande Kroppsfunktioner och de 59 kategorier gällande Aktivitet och Delaktighet deskriptivt vid sex veckor och tre månader efter stroke. Därutöver prövades core sets förmåga att skilja mellan personer som var antingen beroende eller oberoende av hjälp efter stroke. Hur deltagarna uppfattade omgivningsfaktorernas betydelse analyserades deskriptivt utifrån de 37 ICF kategorierna från Omgivningsfaktorer i studie II vid sex veckoroch tre månader liksom skillnaderna mellan deltagarna som var hemma redan vid sex veckor och deltagarna som kom hem senare men inom tre månader. I studie III identifierades faktorerna av generell hälso-relaterad livskvalitet (EQ-5D visuell analog skala) med hänsyn till den biopsykosociala mångfaldigheten av hälsan och huruvida faktorerna ändrades under ett år efter stroke. Till detta användes korrelation- och regressionsanalys och de 155 ICF kategorier gällande Kroppsfunktioner, Aktivitet och Delaktighet samt Omgivningsfaktorer. Den pyskometriska analysen i studie IV baserades på datamaterial från WHO:s internationella multicentertvärsnittsstudie för validering av Stroke ICF Core Sets där 757 personer med stroke från Kina, Tyskland, Italien och Sverige ingår. Möjligheten att integrera 15 ICF kategorier från Brief ICF Core Set for Stroke (6 kroppsfunktioner, 2 strukturer, 7 aktiviteter och delaktighet) med dess 5-stegsbedömningsskala (från 0 till 4, inget, lätt, måttligt, stort och totalt problem) undersöktes både nationsspecifikt men också tvärkulturellt med Raschanalys. Resultat. Studie I. Signifikanta problem kunde dokumenteras med 28 ICF kategorierfrån komponenten Kroppsfunktion och med 41 ICF kategorier frånkomponenten Aktivitet och Delaktighet. Det fanns inga skillnader mellan 6veckor och 3 månader. Kategorierna hade en god förmåga att skilja mellan personer som var antingen oberoende eller beroende av hjälp efter stroke. Personer som var beroende av hjälp hade kontinuerlig mera problem inom området som gällde framförallt förflyttning, personlig vård och urinering men även kommunikation. Studie II. Deltagarna uppfattade elva omgivningsfaktorer som underlättande vid sex veckor och vid tre månader (framförallt familj, vänner och hälso- ochsjukvårdspersonal men också hjälpmedel, medicin och hälso- och sjukvårdsservice) och endast en faktor (fysisk geografi, dvs. backe, grusvägar, etc.) som hindrande. Vid tre månader uppfattades de sistnämnda faktorerna vanligare som hindrande än vid sex veckor. Vården på strokeenheten upplevdes något bättre jämfört med den senare tillkomna servicen från primär- och kommunvård. Studie III. Medan kroppsfunktioner och aktiviteter och delaktighet kunde förklara nästan all varians av självupplevd hälsa under de första tre månaderna (R2=0.80 - 0.93), så kunde bara hälften av variationen förklaras antingen med kroppsfunktioner eller med omgivningsfaktorer (R2=0.51). Problem med fritidsaktiviteter, personlighet, mental uttröttbarhet ochgångförmåga var återkommande problem som var relaterat till sämre självupplevd hälsa under året efter insjuknandet. Studie IV. Efter justeringar som innebar en minskning av bedömningsskalan till mellan två till tre svarsalternativ för vissa kategorier och en borttagning av några kategorier som inte passade in i Raschmodellen visade de resterande ICF kategorierna en bra täckning av personernas funktionstillstånd efter stroke och en god reliabilitet för att mäta funktionstillstånd. I den tvärkulturella analysen fanns det fyra kategorier sominte hade samma betydelse i de olika länderna. Därför utformades nationsspecifika kategorier. Det slutliga tvärkulturella instrumentet omfattar 20 ICF kategorier. Därmed blir det möjligt att integrera olika ICF kategorier till ett instrument och summera bedömningsvärden av de olika kategorierna till ett helhetsvärde för funktionstillstånd som underlättar uppföljning av och jämförelse mellan personer med stroke men även jämförelse mellan olika nationer. Slutsats. Studierna visar att ICF, och särskilt det specifika Stroke ICF Core Set, är ett valid och praktiskt verktyg för att strukturerat kunna dokumentera de mångfaldiga problemen och konsekvenserna efter stroke enhetlig genom hela förloppet av vårdkedjan. Strokesjukvården i Sverige upplevs som välfungerande men en god förbättringspotential finns framförallt i senare skede när primär- och kommunvård ta över ansvaret för personernas vård och rehabilitering. För dokumentation av funktionstillstånd av den typiska äldre patienten med stroke kan de 166 ICF kategorierna reduceras till 92. Faktorer som påverkar hälsorelaterad livskvalitet varierar under tiden efter insjuknandet där kroppsfunktioner och aktiviteter och delaktighet är starkt relaterade under de första tre månaderna. Vid ett år efter insjuknandet har omgivningens betydelse ökat för hälsorelaterad livskvalitet. Tidig hänsyn inte bara till gångförmåga men också till problem med personlighet och temperament, mental uttröttbarhet och återgång till fritidsaktiviteter borde kunna förbättra personernas livskvalitet efter stroke. Att konstruera ett tvärkulturellt instrument i syfte att mäta funktionstillstånd efter stroke genom integrering av ICF kategorier som omfattar kroppsfunktioner, strukturer, och aktiviteter och delaktighet är möjligt. Därmed öppnas nya potentialer för att kunna följa upp och jämföra funktionstillstånd efter stroke inte enbart på individ- och nationell nivå men även på populations- och internationell nivå. Den 5-stegs bedömningsskala (ICF qualifier) är dock inte psykometrisk användbart och fortsatt forskning behövs.

Abstract: Syfte: Att beskriva hur kommunernas äldre- och handikappomsorg infört och använder sig av ICF. Metod: Semistrukturerade telefonintervjuer med representanter för åtta svenska kommuner. Intervjuerna har transkriberats och analyserats genom kvalitativ innehållsanalys, Resultat: Resultatet redovisas under två teman. Ett tema handlar om hur kommuner infört ICF i kommunernas äldre- och handikappomsorg, med kategorierna införande i journalstruktur och införande av tankemodell. Ett tema handlar om hur kommunerna använder ICF i kommunernas äldre- och handikappomsorg. Kategorierna under det temat är användning i journalstruktur, användning av tankemodell och problem och utvecklingsbehov.  Två olika typer av införande och användningssätt av ICF inom kommunernas äldre- och handikappomsorg framkom i studien. Införandet initieras ofta av medicinskt ansvarig för rehabilitering (MAR) eller medicinskt ansvarig sjuksköterska (MAS) och startar vanligtvis i projektform för båda arbetssätten. Två av kommunerna använder sig mest av den första delen i den svenska versionen av ICF, som handlar om ICF:s tankemodell och sex komponenter, för att göra en brukarnära kartläggning och formulera beslutsunderlag. I de övriga sex kommunerna används ICF:s komponenter och klassifikationer som sökord i journalsystemens sökordsträd. Diskussion: Studien visar att delaktighet, friskperspektiv och helhetssyn inte är något som automatiskt följer med när ICF införs. Det framstår som om användningen kräver mer utbildning om, och mera bearbetning av ICF än vad kommunerna hade trott från början. Det framgår tydligt av studien att arbetsterapeuter har lättare att ta till sig tankesättet medan sjuksköterskor har betydligt svårare. Eftersom ICF är på stark frammarsch så behöver inslagen av ICF öka i alla vårdutbildningar.  Sökord: International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, Äldreomsorg, Arbetsterapi, Hälsa, Social omsorg

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. In the main, Rwandan district hospitals still utilise the hierarchical medical model of health. Aim: The aim of the study was to determine whether training on interprofessional practice, using the ICF framework, resulted in improved knowledge, attitudes and behaviour(as determined by improved recording of interprofessional assessment and management in patient records) in randomly selected Rwandan District Hospitals. Methodology: This study was composed of two phases. Phase I: Preparation. The intervention programme was developed based on a literature review and input from an international panel of experts. A feasibility study in which self-designed instruments and the training programme were tested was undertaken in one district hospital. Phase II: A Cluster Randomised Control Trial. Four district hospitals were randomly allocated to receive a day’s training in interprofessional practice using the ICF (experimental hospitals) or a short talk on the topic (control hospital). Participants included medical doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, social workers, nutritionists, and mental health nurses/clinical psychologists. Using self-designed and validated measures, pre- and postmeasurements of knowledge and attitudes towards Interprofessional Practice (IPP) were performed at baseline and after training and audit of patients’ records after discharge was performed at baseline and at two, four and six months. The independent t-test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to establish if the two sets of groups were equivalent before and after training at baseline and at two, four and six months. Repeated measures ANOVA and the post-hoc Tukey test were used to compare the audit scores at each time point. The Kruskal Wallis test was used to compare rankings of the scores of attitudes of different professions before and after the intervention. Ethical approval was obtained from the Human Research Ethics Committee of the University of Cape Town and the Rwandan National Ethics Committee.

Abstract:
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. Those functional activities are more likely to be considered low-intense and represent an important qualitative health-promoting activity. For the elderly, functional, light intensity activities are of special interest but are assessed differently in terms of quantity and quality. The aim was to analyze the content of PAQ for the elderly.

Abstract:
Hearing loss (HL) is a health condition that affects more than 360 million people worldwide. The findings from previous research point at the adverse relationship between adults with hearing loss and important aspects of everyday life such as social relations, communication and work-related tasks. However, the overall picture concerning the functional and disabling aspects of adults with HL re- mains incomplete. To identify the functional and disabling aspects, a conceptual and/or theoretical framework is required. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) offer a multidimensional framework based on bio-psycho-social assumptions about health. In previous research inves- tigations in which the ICF has been used, some utility problems in the linking (relating) of data to the classification have been highlighted. The aims of the present thesis were to explore the areas of functioning and disability of relevance for adults with HL and to explore how audiological data can be linked to ICF. The aims were explored by applying the methodology of the ‘interdisciplinary evidence-based approach to functioning and disability in adults with HL’, acknowledging the merging of three perspectives designated the Researcher, the Patient and the Professional perspective. Four studies that focus on the three perspectives were conducted. All results were linked to the ICF classification. The results were merged into a model designated ‘the integrative model of functioning and disability in adults with HL’. When the three perspectives were linked, the results revealed several aspects of relevance for the target group. Bodily (individual) dimensions, such as hear- ing, auditory perception, memory, attention, energy, and emotions, were acknowledged. Aspects of everyday life such as conversations, the usage of communication strategies, family relationships and work, were highlighted. Influential environmental factors, such as noise, assistive technical devices, the design of public buildings, social support and the attitudes of people in the envi- ronment, were also identified. In conclusion, interactions seemed to be vital as almost all identified aspects highlighted or were tied to this dimension of human functioning. Further, concerning the linking of the data it was acknowledged that the ICF and the research area of adult HL do not fully comply. Suggestions for improvements in future revisions of the ICF were highlighted and discussed.

Abstract:
30 Day Hospital Readmission Rates, Frequencies, and Heart Failure Classification for Patients with Heart Failure Background Congestive heart failure (CHF) is the leading cause of mortality, morbidity, and disability worldwide among patients. Both the incidence and the prevalence of heart failure are age dependent and are relatively common in individuals 40 years of age and older. CHF is one of the leading causes of inpatient hospitalization readmission in the United States, with readmission rates remaining above the 20% goal within 30 days. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services imposes a 3% reimbursement penalty for excessive readmissions including those who are readmitted within 30 days from prior hospitalization for heart failure. Hospitals risk losing millions of dollars due to poor performance. A reduction in CHF readmission rates not only improves healthcare system expenditures, but also patients’ mortality, morbidity, and quality of life. Purpose The purpose of this DNP project is to determine the 30-day hospital readmission rates, frequencies, and heart failure classification for patients with heart failure. Specific aims include comparing computed annual re-admission rates with national average, determine the number of multiple 30-day re-admissions, provide descriptive data for demographic variables, and correlate age and heart failure classification with the number of multiple re-admissions. Methods A retrospective chart review was used to collect hospital admission and study data. The setting occurred in an urban hospital in Memphis, TN. The study was reviewed by the UTHSC Internal Review Board and deemed exempt. The electronic medical records were queried from July 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019 for heart failure ICD-10 codes beginning with the prefix 150 and a report was generated. Data was cleaned such that each patient admitted had only one heart failure ICD-10 code. The total number of heart failure admissions was computed and compared to national average. Using age ranges 40-80, the number of patients re-admitted withing 30 days was computed and descriptive and inferential statistics were computed using Microsoft Excel and R. Results A total of 3524 patients were admitted for heart failure within the six-month time frame. Of those, 297 were re-admitted within 30 days for heart failure exacerbation (8.39%). An annual estimate was computed (16.86%), well below the national average (21%). Of those re-admitted within 30 days, 50 were re-admitted on multiple occasions sequentially, ranging from 2-8 re-admissions. The median age was 60 and 60% male. Due to the skewed distribution (most re-admitted twice), nonparametric statistics were used for correlation. While graphic display of charts suggested a trend for most multiple re-admissions due to diastolic dysfunction and least number due to systolic heart failure, there was no statistically significant correlation between age and number or multiple re-admissions (Spearman rank, p = 0.6208) or number of multiple re-admissions and heart failure classification (Kruskal Wallis, p =0.2553).

Abstract:
A fundamental responsibility of the National Park Service is to ensure that park resources are preserved, protected, and managed in consideration of the resources themselves and for the benefit and enjoyment by the public. Through the inventory, monitoring, and study of park resources, we gain a greater understanding of the scope, significance, distribution, and management issues associated with these resources and their use. This baseline of natural resource information is available to inform park managers, scientists, stakeholders, and the public about the conditions of these resources and the factors or activities which may threaten or influence their stability. There are several different categories of geologic or stratigraphic units (supergroup, group, formation, member, bed) which represent a hierarchical system of classification. The mapping of stratigraphic units involves the evaluation of lithologies, bedding properties, thickness, geographic distribution, and other factors. If a new mappable geologic unit is identified, it may be described and named through a rigorously defined process that is standardized and codified by the professional geologic community (North American Commission on Stratigraphic Nomenclature 2005). In most instances when a new geologic unit such as a formation is described and named in the scientific literature, a specific and well-exposed section of the unit is designated as the type section or type locality (see Definitions). The type section is an important reference section for a named geologic unit which presents a relatively complete and representative profile for this unit. The type or reference section is important both historically and scientifically, and should be recorded such that other researchers may evaluate it in the future. Therefore, this inventory of geologic type sections in NPS areas is an important effort in documenting these locations in order that NPS staff recognize and protect these areas for future studies. The documentation of all geologic type sections throughout the 423 units of the NPS is an ambitious undertaking. The strategy for this project is to select a subset of parks to begin research for the occurrence of geologic type sections within particular parks. The focus adopted for completing the baseline inventories throughout the NPS was centered on the 32 inventory and monitoring networks (I&M) established during the late 1990s. The I&M networks are clusters of parks within a defined geographic area based on the ecoregions of North America (Fenneman 1946; Bailey 1976; Omernik 1987). These networks share similar physical resources (geology, hydrology, climate), biological resources (flora, fauna), and ecological characteristics. Specialists familiar with the resources and ecological parameters of the network, and associated parks, work with park staff to support network level activities (inventory, monitoring, research, data management). Adopting a network-based approach to inventories worked well when the NPS undertook paleontological resource inventories for the 32 I&M networks. The network approach is also being applied to the inventory for the geologic type sections in the NPS. The planning team from the NPS Geologic Resources Division who proposed and designed this inventory selected the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network (GRYN) as the pilot network for initiating this project. Through the research undertaken to identify the geologic type sections within the parks of the GRYN, methodologies for data mining and reporting on these resources was established. Methodologies and reporting adopted for the GRYN have been used in the development of this type section inventory for the Chihuahuan Desert Inventory & Monitoring Network. The goal of this project is to consolidate information pertaining to geologic type sections which occur within NPS-administered areas, in order that this information is available throughout the NPS...
