摘要: The objective of the study was to identify commonalities among International Classification Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Core Sets osteoarthritis (OA), osteoporosis (OP), low back pain (LBP), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) chronic widespread (CWP). aim is relevant categories for development a tentative ICF Set musculoskeletal conditions. common five conditions in Brief Comprehensive were identified three steps. In first step, across these examined. second third we analysed increase when iteratively excluding one or two 29 out total number 120 all conditions, primarily component activities participation. found that exclusion CWP increased remaining four maximum ten additional categories. contain 62 iterative singular condition did not significantly remaining. Based on our analysis, it seems possible develop including LBP, OA, OP RA. However, profile functioning people with differs considerably should be further considered Set.
