Functional Capacity Index

The Functional Capacity Index (FCI) is a measure of a persons level of function for the following 12 months after sustaining some form of illness or injury.^[1] The FCI incorporates ten physical functions and gives each a numerical value and has a total scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the least impact on a persons daily living.^[2]
