Abstract

The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health – ICF is an important instrument to describe the functionality of people with tinnitus. The Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), an instrument for the characterization and quantification of tinnitus, and due to its practicality and diverse application possibilities, has already been translated into several languages. This qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory study intends to present the application of the THI linkage rules with the ICF, and to propose the improvement of techniques for interpretation of results, preparation of reports and multidisciplinary therapeutic planning according to the perspective and domains established by the ICF for use clinical and occupational.
