Swimming, athletics and table tennis used a medical based classification system for the Barcelona Games.[1] This happened as the Games were in a transition period with a number of other sports starting to move to a fully functional based classification system.[2][3][4]
This medal table includes also the 1992 Paralympic Games for Persons with mental handicap, which held by the same organizing committee, and is part of same event, but in Madrid, between 15 and 22 September in the same year.[5]
