How Elara frames questionnaires for ME/CFS, FUNCAP-27, and fibromyalgia: criteria, score logic, limits, and safe interpretation.
The questionnaires structure symptoms, exertion burden, and functional limitations. They are designed as documentation and orientation tools.
A self-check cannot perform exclusion diagnostics and cannot determine individual treatment.
A single score is only one slice of the picture. It becomes more useful when linked to time course, PEM, exertion, and daily function.
Each assessment should be read with its purpose and limits in mind.
Structured against the Canadian Consensus Criteria and ME/CFS-oriented symptom groups.
Captures functional limitations and daily capacity in ME/CFS-oriented illness courses.
Uses ACR-oriented logic combining pain distribution and symptom severity.
No. They are structured self-checks for orientation and documentation. Diagnosis requires medical assessment and, where relevant, exclusion of other causes.
They can make symptoms, functional limitations, and timing patterns more precise. This helps self-observation and conversations with clinicians.
Many chronic conditions fluctuate. A result becomes more useful when connected with symptoms, exertion, recovery, and repeated measurements.
If symptoms are new, severe, persistent, worsening, or limiting daily life, the result should be interpreted medically. For acute red flags, immediate medical care matters more than a questionnaire.
Elara questionnaires provide information, orientation, and documentation. They do not replace medical diagnosis, emergency care, or treatment.
