The World Health Organization's ( WHO ) International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a common framework to understand and describe functioning and disability. To make the ICF more applicable for everyday use, WHO and the ICF Research Branch ( www.icf-research-branch.org ) created a process for developing core sets of ICF categories or "ICF Core Sets". ICF Core Sets facilitate the description of functioning, for example in clinical practice, by providing lists of essential cate

following a scientific process based on preparatory studies and the involvement of a multidisciplinary group of experts.

To facilitate the use of ICF Core Sets, a manual outlining one approach for using them in clinical practice is available (see below). This interactive electronic documentation tool www.icf-core-sets.org was developed to accompany this manual. This tool is available in English, Spanish, German, French, Mandarin Chinese and Finnish. Click the button "Go to the electronic ICF-based Documentation Tool" below to access the tool in all the language versions.
