The WeeFIM II® System allows credentialed clinicians across the United States and around the world to measure
and document functional performance in infants (0-3 years old), children, and adolescents with either acquired
or congenital disease in a consistent manner. The WeeFIM® instrument is a reliable outcomes measurement
instrument that can be applied uniformly across inpatient, outpatient, and community-based settings to
track clinical, managerial, and performance improvement efforts and initiatives. The WeeFIM II® System is
a benchmarked outcomes management system that provides a method of evaluating outcomes for patients, groups
of patients (population-based), and overall medical rehabilitation/habilitation programs.
The WeeFIM® instrument was developed to measure the need for
assistance and the severity of disability in children between the ages of 6
months and 7 years. The WeeFIM® instrument may be used with children above
the age of 7 years as long as their functional abilities, as measured by the
WeeFIM® instrument, are below those expected of children aged 7 who do not
have disabilities. The WeeFIM® instrument consists of a minimal data set of
18 items that measure functional performance in three domains: self-care,
mobility, and cognition. The WeeFIM® Instrument: 0-3 Module is a
questionnaire that measures precursors to function in children 0-3 years old
who have a variety of disabilities. The 0-3 module can be administered to
parents by interview or self-report and is useful across many settings,
including early intervention and preschool.
