Complementary value of functional capacity evaluation for physicians in assessing the physical work ability of workers with musculoskeletal disorders
International Archives of Occupational & Environmental Health, 10/16/08
Wind H et al. - The objective was to study the complementary value of information from functional capacity evaluation (FCE) for insurance physicians (IPs) who assess the physical work ability of claimants with long-term musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). FCE information was found to have complementary value at present and in the future according to most IPs in the assessment of the physical work ability of claimants with MSD. Half of the IPs felt that this information reinforces their judgment in this context.
