Laying the foundation for a Core Set of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) for community-dwelling elderly adults in primary care: the patient-perspective identified in a qualitative study.

CONCLUSION: Categories from all ICF chapters were identified, demonstrating the complexity and multidimensionality of the ageing process, with a special emphasis on the component Activities and Participation. This qualitative study provides a list of relevant categories from the perspective of community-dwelling elderly people, which will be used to develop a Core Set for older primary care patients.
