Use of the ICF in Dysphagia Management
Posted 2007-10-21 09:27:47
Ina recent publication in Seminars in Speech and Language, Dr. Threats addresses the use of the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) as a framework for dysphagia clinicians. The different components of the ICF are discussed in relation to the diagnosis and management of dysphagia. The author concludes that speech-language pathologists can use the ICF framework beneficially to justify and strengthen their role in the management of dysphagia.
