What is FCE software?

The Metriks Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) software automates the data collection and report generation for an FCE assessment.

How does the software work?

  1. It is a secure online application that you access with a username and password.
  2. From the home page you can view your past assessments or create a new assessment.
  3. When you create a new assessment you can pick from a variety of protocols: 1-day FCE, 2-day FCE, Short-form FCE.
  4. A protocol is a battery of tests set out in a recommended order, e.g. Test#1 - Interview, Test#2 - Intake Documents, Test#3 - MSK assessment etc.
  5. There is a HELP button on each test that provides detailed instructions on what to do. We highly recommend you complete our FCE Certification.
  6. Each test contains a series of data entry fields. Where you enter things like: degrees of range of motion, hand grip force, time to reach overhead, weight of box lifted.
  7. The application performs a series of functions based on the data you input. It calculates the percentage of normal, the coefficient of variation. It creates tables or graphs. IT generates report paragraphs based on the test scores and your clinical observations.
  8. Once you have entered all the data you can generate a report, using one of our stock templates, or we can create a custom template for you. The report is a Microsoft Word document. You can download the Word file; edit and save on your local computer or server as you would any other Word file.

Are you new to FCEs?

  • You need a source of FCE referrals, before you invest in FCE tools, training, and software.
  • FCE referrals can come from Employers, Insurance, Lawyers, Physicians, other Healthcare Providers. In some jurisdictions you can perform an FCE on your own patient.
  • You need a place to perform your assessment. FCEs are often done in 10'x10' rehabilitation treatment rooms. Our FCE in a Box kit is portable, you can go to the client's home, their place of employment or rent a local hotel board room.
  • You will need measurement tools. Our software does not require the purchase of expensive proprietary tools. You can standard clinical tools like plastic goniometers, weights, and grip dynamometers. We do offer an affordable FCE in a box kit.
  • Although an FCE is unregulated and likely within your scope of practice some referral sources will ask if you are FCE certified. There is no overarching regulatory body, but there are a handful of companies like Metriks that offer FCE certification.
  • For software our pay-as-you-go service is a fantastic choice. No initial costs, no recurring fees. This option minimizes the financial risk tied to launching FCE service.
