Abstract:
Objective:To explore the core categories of postpartum functional assessment based on the international classifica-tion of functioning,disability and health(ICF)and its brief version.Method:Using the method of evidence-based medicine,through literature search,the concepts contained in the literature indicators were extracted,linked with ICF,and referred to the relevant literature and WHO ICF checklist to develop the postpartum functional assessment scale for women.A total of 300 patients were investi-gated and evaluated clinically,and the frequency of each ICF item was counted.The items with dysfunction frequency rank≥30%were taken as the first ICF core set of postpartum function for women.Questionnaires were distributed to medical staff to count the ICF items that medical staff thought were closely related to wom-en's postpartum function,and more than 50%of the items were used as the second stage ICF item pool.The results of the two periods were integrated to construct the core category set of postpartum functional assessment for women based on ICF.In addition,the items with more than 50%dysfunction and 100%dysfunction were further selected as the brief version of the core category set for postpartum functional assessment of women.Result:A core category set of 63 items was initially constructed based on the ICF for postpartum functional as-sessment of women,including 27 physical function items,10 body structure items,15 activity and participa-tion items,and 11 environmental factors items.In addition,a brief version of the 43-item core set of function-al assessments for postpartum women was constructed,including 16 items in the physical function part,9 items in the body structure part,9 items in the activity and participation part,and 9 items in the environmen-tal factors part.Conclusion:Based on the ICF,this study preliminarily discusses the core categories of postpartum functional assessment and its brief version,so as to provide some guidance for clinical postpartum examination,function-al assessment and rehabilitation treatment of women.
