Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is characterized by partial or total dysfunction of the spinal cord, resulting in interruption of motor and sensory nerve tracts. This can lead to alterations. The aim of this article is to review the available information on the application of the ICF as an assessment tool in patients with spinal cord injury, especially in the field of multiprofessional physical rehabilitation. It is a nonsystematic literature review study using the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and BIREME databases, including studies published between the years 2014 and 2024 addressing the ICF assessment scale and focusing on Multiprofessional Physical Rehabilitation in Rehabilitation for patients with spinal cord injury. Among the reviewed studies, researchers identified a series of challenges related to bodily functions, daily activities, participation in society, and environmental factors faced by people with spinal cord injury. The use of the ICF revealed several limitations both in the functionality of individuals with SCI and in the application of the instrument itself. Therefore, there is an urgent need for more studies on the applicability of the ICF in this population, as well as for training professionals for its proper use.
