“…However, caution is needed when using this approach for patients aged o40 years, since patients with clinically apparent cardiopulmonary disease often have a higher HR at a given level of exercise (when compared with healthy people), which would cause their %max HR to be elevated, causing an overestimation of their exercise intensity. Conversely, those taking beta-blockers for hypertension or coronary artery disease have attenuation of %max HR [176], causing an underestimation of their exercise intensity.…”

This systematic review examined the measurement properties of the 6-min walk test (6MWT), incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT) and endurance shuttle walk test (ESWT) in adults with chronic respiratory disease.Studies that report the evaluation or use of the 6MWT, ISWT or ESWT were included. We searched electronic databases for studies published between January 2000 and September 2013.The 6-min walking distance (6MWD) is a reliable measure (intra-class correlation coefficients ranged from 0.82 to 0.99 in seven studies). There is a learning effect, with greater distance walked on the second test (pooled mean improvement of 26 m in 13 studies). Reliability was similar for ISWT and ESWT, with a learning effect also evident for ISWT (pooled mean improvement of 20 m in six studies). The 6MWD correlates more strongly with peak work capacity (r50.59-0.93) and physical activity (r50.40-0.85) than with respiratory function (r50.10-0.59). Methodological factors affecting 6MWD include track length, encouragement, supplemental oxygen and walking aids. Supplemental oxygen also affects ISWT and ESWT performance. Responsiveness was moderate to high for all tests, with greater responsiveness to interventions that included exercise training.The findings of this review demonstrate that the 6MWT, ISWT and ESWT are robust tests of functional exercise capacity in adults with chronic respiratory disease. OverviewThe aim of this systematic review was to examine the measurement properties for the 6-min walk test (6MWT), incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT) and endurance shuttle walk test (ESWT) in adults with chronic respiratory disease. A companion paper describes the standard operating procedures for the tests [1]. The key findings of this systematic review are as follows.1) The 6-min walking distance (6MWD) is a valid and reliable measure of exercise capacity for people with chronic lung disease. The 6MWD correlates more strongly with measures of peak work capacity and physical activity than with respiratory function or quality of life, which supports its conceptualisation as a test of functional exercise performance.2) The ISWT offers a different protocol to the 6MWT as it is incremental and externally paced. The ISWT is a valid and reliable measure of cardiopulmonary exercise capacity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where there is a strong relationship between ISWT distance and peak oxygen uptake (V9O 2 peak) or work rate on a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET).3) A learning effect is observed for the 6MWT and the ISWT. The second test usually is the better compared with the first, but this is inconsistent.4) The ESWT is a test of endurance capacity. It is externally paced and is performed along the same course as the ISWT. Two tests do not appear to be necessary if the second test is conducted on the same day.5) Reference equations have been proposed for the 6MWD and the ISWT. Age, height and weight are included in most equations. The influence of race and ethnicity is unclear.6) The safety profile of ...

“…Previously and at the end of the test, the heart rate (HR), respiratory rates (RR), oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ) and Borg Scale 20 were evaluated. The calculation of the predicted distance in the 6MWT was carried out with the equation proposed by Soares and Pereira 21 .…”

“…Os autores salientam que também não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os sexos, apesar de a distância percorrida no TC6 ter sido um pouco maior nos homens, em concordância com o presente estudo 9 . A média da diferença das distâncias percorridas prevista e obtida, foi por exemplo, superior ao valor encontrado em uma meta-análise que avaliou a responsividade de intervenções, como programas de reabilitação pulmonar para pessoas com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica, considerando melhora média de 48 m (IC95% 32-65 m; p < 0,0001) 21 .…”

| Introduction:The six minute walk test (6MWT) is a simple and low cost field test that evaluates funcional capacity. Objectives: To evaluate the distance walked in the SWT in healthy Young adults according to gender and compare to predicted values to the Brazilian population , as well as to verify if demographic, antropometric factors and physical activity levels are related to SWT performance. Methods: An observational, cross sectional study conducted with healthy young adults. Two 6MWT practices were conducted in the same day. Soares and Pereira, as well as Iwama reference norms were used to calculate predicted values. Results: One hundred and seix subjects were included. Mean distance walked were 677.4 + 47.9 m and 594.3 + 70.0 m, respectively for men and women (p < 0.0001). Both predicted values were significantly different from distance walked by subjects. The distance walked in 6MWT was associated to gender, height, inferior limbs lenght, weight, BMI and activity level, but not with age. Conclusions: 6MWT was proven to be clinically applicable not only to functional evaluation but for measuring results from a therapeutic interventions in diferente subsets in healthy or subjects with comorbidities.
