Use of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health in Speech-Language-Hearing Therapy: an integrative literature review

ABSTRACT Purpose: to carry out an integrative review of literature regarding the use of the ICF in Speech-Language-Hearing Therapy. Methods: a search was conducted on both national and international databases, for articles published between 2008 and 2018, considering the following descriptors in Portuguese, English and Spanish: “International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health”, “Speech-Language-Hearing”, and “Speech Therapy”. Duplicated articles, as well as those introducing new ICF-based protocols and studies whose theme didn’t refer exclusively to speech-language-hearing practices were excluded. Results: 36 articles were found, 9 of which met the inclusion criteria. The articles were categorized according to speech-language-hearing subareas (most belonging to the subarea of language), and to types of study (most being case studies). Conclusion: studies point out that the ICF can contribute to the development of unique therapy projects in a broader approach to health in the speech-language-hearing clinic. However, it has been perceived the need for more researches on the theme with applicability to the other fields of knowledge in speech-language-hearing sciences.

摘要
研究目的：针对国际功能、残疾和健康分类（International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health，ICF）在言语语言听力治疗（Speech-Language-Hearing Therapy）中的应用开展整合性文献综述。
研究方法：在国内外数据库中检索2008年至2018年发表的文献，检索词涵盖葡萄牙语、英语及西班牙语的以下术语：“国际功能、残疾和健康分类”“言语语言听力学（Speech-Language-Hearing）”“言语治疗（Speech Therapy）”。排除重复文献、提出基于ICF的新干预方案的文献，以及主题未专门涉及言语语言听力学实践的研究。
研究结果：共检索到36篇文献，其中9篇符合纳入标准。根据言语语言听力学亚领域（多数隶属于语言亚领域）及研究类型（多数为个案研究）对纳入文献进行分类。
研究结论：现有研究表明，ICF可为言语语言听力治疗临床中基于更全面健康照护视角的个性化治疗方案开发提供助力。然而，当前学界已意识到需开展更多该主题相关研究，以拓展其在言语语言听力学其他知识领域的适用性。
