Accessibility audit of a health care institute in India: Are people with disabilities being provided their rights?
2022, Medical Journal Armed Forces IndiaCitation Excerpt :Universal health care is a value addition if it reduces catastrophic health expenditure and ensures equity and access to all segments of the population. PDW require the same range of health services for the diagnosis and treatment of disease or the promotion of health as PDW.14,15 To the best of our knowledge, no study has been done in the north India on this magnitude; there are few studies by Nischith et al.16 and Gudlavalleti et al.14 done in southern India where it was found an interesting dichotomy as PDW report using more health services, especially in-patient care while also stating that they do not receive care when they need it.
‘Understanding Disability’: Evaluating a contact-based approach to enhancing attitudes and disability literacy of medical students
2019, Disability and Health JournalSocial inclusion of individuals with intellectual disabilities in the military
2017, Research in Developmental DisabilitiesCitation Excerpt :Most importantly, it examined this meaning by focusing on various stakeholder groups in order to obtain a holistic understanding of the topic and using a recent theoretical conceptualization of the concept of social inclusion. In most Western countries, legislation and policies concerning persons with disabilities advocate full and effective social inclusion and community participation (Officer & Groce, 2009; UN General Assembly, 2007; Wearing, 2011). One area of life from which individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) are frequently excluded is military service.
Rasch analysis supported the construct validity of self-report measures of activity and participation derived from patient ratings of the ICF low back pain core set
2017, Journal of Clinical EpidemiologyCitation Excerpt :The distinct components of disability described by the ICF are as follows: impairments (problems in body functions or structures); activity limitations (difficulties in executing tasks); and participation restrictions (problems with involvement in life situations) [6]. The ICF conceptualization of disability recognizes that the experience of CLBP-related disability is more than a simple and direct consequence of pain, and is the sequel of a dynamic complex interaction between an individual and his/her context [7,8]. However, current gold standard measures of LBP-related disability, such as the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) [9], are not consistent with this contemporary conceptualization.
Validity and reliability of the Functioning Disability Evaluation Scale-Adult Version based on the WHODAS 2.0-36 items
2014, Journal of the Formosan Medical AssociationCitation Excerpt :According to the Disability Report of the World Health Organization (WHO), the prevalence of disability is approximately 15% worldwide1; however, the prevalence in Taiwan in 2012 is only 4.7%.2 One possible reason for this relatively low rate is that the definition of disability and the evaluation system for people with disabilities in Taiwan were different from those in other countries.3–5 Before 2007, people with disabilities were viewed from a medical model that primarily emphasized the diagnosis of diseases and impairments of the body's function and structures and focused less on the resulting limitations on activity and restrictions on participation in Taiwan.
