Functional Capacity Assessment System And Method
US Patent:
6056671, May 2, 2000
Filed:
Dec 19, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/989919
Inventors:
Keith S. Marmer - Medford NJ
International Classification:
A63B 2100
US Classification:
482 8
Abstract:
A system and method of objectively testing the functional capacity of a patient over a range of motion and with a limited resistance are provided. A selected number of visual indicators are applied and maintained at selected points with respect to the patient. The patient is directed through a series of exercise movements. The patient's movements are captured on a video record. This video record is digitized. The motion of the indicators is tracked in the digitized video record. A patient data set is developed including performance parameters based, at least in part, on the position and the time of each indicator during the movements. The patient data set is compared to a base data set. If the patient's performance parameters fall within certain ranges, it can be determined that the patient is or is not exerting a true effort. The functional capacity of the patient is determined based, at least in part, on the comparison of the patient data set with the base data set.
