Abstract

The handicap section of the ICIDH was developed with the experience of adults in mind. In its original form the H Code is not immediately applicable to young children with disabilities. The Classification Group of the Nordic Neuropediatric Association has developed an adaptation of the H Code for use in children aged 6-7 years, and the adaptation is presented in this paper.
