Abstract
This paper presents a glossary of terms relevant to some of the consequences of disease. The glossary was originally prepared as an appendix to the International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities, and Handicaps, but ultimately it was not possible for it to be included in this publication. Although the work cannot be regarded either as official or as definitive, it is offered as a contribution to resolving some of the difficulties encountered by those in rehabilitation medicine when they try to communicate with each other.Keywords
