“…Patients with COPD have a limitation in the activities of daily living, especially those involving the upper limbs, as they cause increased ventilatory demand and DH 3,19,20. The present study evaluated the acute effects of the Glittre-ADL test, which is one of the field tests that most closely resemble activities of daily living, and include walking and arm movements 18…”

Introduction: COPD is characterized by the ventilatory limitation, with reduction of the inspiratory reserve volume and dynamic hyperinflation (DH), which changes the configuration of the thoracic compartment, resulting in a disadvantage in respiratory muscle kinetics, and reduced functional capacity. The optoelectronic plethysmography (OEP) has been used to monitor changes in thoracoabdominal mobility. The Glittre-ADL test is a short battery of functional tests that simulate activities of daily living. In mild and moderate COPD, the effect of Glittre-ADL on thoracoabdominal kinetics and DH is understudied. Objective: The aim of our study was to evaluate the acute effects of the Glittre-ADL test on lung function and thoracoabdominal mobility using OEP in patients with mild and moderate COPD. Materials and methods: Twenty-five male and female patients between 45 and 80 years of age with COPD were submitted to the exercises that simulated Glittre-ADL test. Spirometry and OEP were performed before and after the test. Results: After the Glittre test, increases were found in EV ( p =0.005), percentage of contribution of the abdominal compartment ( p =0.054) and expiratory reserve volume (ERV) ( p =0.006) and reductions were found in the contribution of the upper thoracic compartment ( p= 0.008) and inspiratory capacity (IC) ( p =0.040). Conclusion: The acute effect of ADL was a change in thoracoabdominal kinetics, especially the percentage of contribution of the abdominal compartment, as demonstrated by OEP. These findings, together with the reduction in IC and increase in ERV, after the Glittre-ADL test suggest the occurrence of DH, even in patients with mild to moderate COPD according to the GOLD classification.

“…The main parameter was the total time required to complete the test, calculated according to the equation described by Reis18 1.558+ (0.018×BMI)+(0.016×age years). Two tests were performed, but the second test was used for analysis, due to the learning effect reported in the literature 17…”

“…Although TGlittre is a relatively new instrument, the test has been used frequently in clinical practice, showing considerable importance [7][8][9] . As the aim of TGlittre is to measure, in a standardised way, an important outcome, the instrument has already been studied in different populations as children 10 , obese patients after bariatric intervention 11 , cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases 12,13 besides healthy subjects 14 .…”

Introdução: O teste de AVD-Glittre (TGlittre) é válido para avaliar a capacidade funcional. Entretanto, poucos estudos verificaram suas propriedades de medida. Objetivo: Avaliar a confiabilidade interavaliador e testereteste do TGlittre em indivíduos saudáveis. Métodos: Treze indivíduos saudáveis (8 mulheres; 27,3 ± 3,94 anos) tiveram seu histórico de saúde, atividade física, antropometria e capacidade funcional avaliados. No primeiro dia, o TGlittre foi realizado duas vezes, randomizadamente, por dois avaliadores independentes. No segundo, apenas um TGlittre foi realizado, pelo avaliador 1. As avaliações foram separadas por, no mínimo, 7, e, no máximo, 14 dias. Análise Estatística: Foram utilizados, o coeficiente de correlação intraclasse (CCI) e o intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%) das médias entre os dois TGlittre (confiabilidades interavaliador e teste-reteste). Resultados: A média de tempo do TGlittre foi de 2,66 ± 0,26 minutos, no dia 1; 2,45 ± 0,22 minutos, no dia 2. CCI de 0,83 (IC95%: 0,52-0,94; p<0,001) e 0,88 (IC95%: 0,65-0,96; p <0,001) foram obtidos para as confiabilidades interavaliador e teste-reteste, respectivamente. Conclusão: O TGlittre demonstrou adequada confiabilidade, para avaliar a capacidade funcional de indivíduos saudáveis.

“…The test is valid and reliable to estimate the FC of individuals with chronic respiratory disorders, in addition to being responsive to pulmonary rehabilitation and the use of bronchodilator agents 11,12 . The Glittre activities of daily living test (Glittre-ADL test), a multitasking test 13,14 , is valid for assessing the FC of individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It has adequate test-retest reliability 15 , reproducible for different populations [16][17][18] , and is responsive to pulmonary rehabilitation 15 and valid for differentiating the functional status of healthy individuals from those with COPD 19 .…”

RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar e comparar respostas metabólicas, cardiovasculares e ventilatórias do incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT) e do Glittre activities of daily living test (Glittre-ADL test). Trata-se de um estudo transversal, realizado com indivíduos saudáveis. A capacidade funcional (CF) foi avaliada pela distância percorrida e consumo de oxigênio pico (VO2pico) no ISWT e pelo tempo gasto e VO2 no Glittre-ADL test. Trinta indivíduos percorreram 656,67 (IC95%:608,8-704,5) metros no ISWT e executaram o Glittre-ADL test em 2,4 (IC95%:2,2-2,6) minutos. O VO2 pico do ISWT foi 27,8 (IC95%25,6-29,9) versus 22,2 (IC95%20,5-24,1)mL×kg−1×min−1 (p<0,001) no estado estável (EE) do Glittre-ADL test. As correlações entre distância percorrida no ISWT e o tempo gasto no Glittre-ADL test, o VO2pico do ISWT e o VO2 no EE do Glittre-ADL test e a FC no pico do ISWT e no EE do Glittre-ADL test foram de moderada a alta magnitude. O Glittre-ADL test apresenta menores respostas metabólicas, cardiovasculares e ventilatórias se comparado ao ISWT.

Functional capacity measurement: reference equations for the Glittre Activities of Daily Living test

Abstract: The reference equations for the time to complete the Glittre ADL-test were based on age, BMI, and height as independent variables and can be useful for predicting the performance of adult individuals. The predicted values appear to be reliable when applied to COPD patients.
