Abstract: This article analyzes instruments for quantifying, qualifying, describing and organizing functioning data, based on the correct nomenclature and concepts of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. Six instruments were included in the study: CBDF, IFBr, MDS, BASEP Method, ESC Table and WHODAS 2.0. Among them, MDS and WHODAS 2.0 are for international use and were published by the WHO. However, their Brazilian versions were analyzed. The study concluded that, with the exception of CBDF, all other instruments are useful for achieving their main objectives, provided that versions with correct translations are chosen.
