Abstract :
[en] In line with the World Health Organization's Rehabilitation 2030 initiative that led to its landmark resolution on rehabilitation, the Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (PRM) Section and Board of the European Union of Medical Specialists have been developing functioning-based standards and tools using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) as a reference framework the past few years. This evidence brief aims to enable rehabilitation practitioners to implement these functioning-based standards and tools in rehabilitation care, management, and programming by clarifying functioning as the foundational concept for rehabilitation, introducing the functioning-based standards and tools and presenting concrete applications. This evidence brief also calls for the continuous development of these standards and tools and discusses the implementation challenges and opportunities in the context of the interaction between practice, science and governance.
