JIMENEZ TORDOYA, E. Jimmy. Methodological guide for preparing the physiotherapy diagnosis according to the International Classification of Functioning (CIF), disability and health. Gac Med Bol [online]. 2016, vol.39, n.1, pp.46-52. ISSN 1012-2966.

This article aims to raise a methodological guide that allows students of the School of Physiotherapy and Kinesiology unify criteria to develop diagnostic processes from the biopsychosocial approach, based on the evidence obtained in the initial evaluation and based on the ranking International of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). The idea stems from the difficulties you have in the formulation of physiotherapy diagnosis, beyond the reference “disease”, assuming an identity from its subject as it is the function - dysfunction of human movement. The use of ICF is proposed that incorporates in its structure categories from body, individual and societal perspective, which are closely related to the nature and levels of study of physiotherapy and kinesiology. Only then an initial framework that streamlines the organization of data and clinical opinion facilitating a classification system according to body functions and structures, bodily activities and participation in activities of daily living, as well as identifying barriers is provided or facilitators in the ambient environment and the individual characteristics that are part of the health status of people.

Palabras clave : Physiotherapeutic diagnosis; International Classification of Functioning; Disability and Health (ICF),; clinical cases; initial assessment; organization of comprehensive data in Physiotherapy.
