Over the last few years, the use of exercise tests has come to be recognized as a convenient method of evaluating respiratory function, because the reserves of the various systems in the human body should be known in order to provide a more complete portrayal of the functional capacities of the patient. Because walking is one of the main activities of daily living, walk tests have been proposed in order to measure the state or the functional capacity of patients. The six-minute walk test has proven to be reproducible and is well tolerated by patients. It evaluates the distance a person can walk on a flat, rigid surface in six minutes. Its main objective is to determine exercise tolerance and oxygen saturation during submaximal exercise. In this review, we present various clinical areas in which the test can provide useful data.Keywords: Hypertension, pulmonary; Pulmonary circulation; Pulmonary heart disease; Exercise. ResumoNos últimos anos, o uso de testes de exercício é reconhecido como um método conveniente na avaliação da função respiratória em função da necessidade de se conhecer as reservas dos vários sistemas corporais a fim de que uma ideia mais completa sobre as capacidades funcionais do paciente seja obtida. Visto que o ato de andar é uma das principais atividades da vida diária, os testes de caminhada têm sido propostos para medir o estado ou a capacidade funcional do paciente. O teste de caminhada de seis minutos provou ser reprodutível e é bem tolerado pelos pacientes. Ele avalia a distância que uma pessoa pode percorrer sobre uma superfície plana e rígida em seis minutos e tem como principal objetivo a determinação da tolerância ao exercício e da saturação de oxigênio durante um exercício submáximo. Nesta revisão, apresentamos várias áreas clínicas nas quais o teste pode fornecer informações úteis.

“…In accordance with previous reports in the literature, (4,13) there was no significant alteration of the obstruction. Therefore, this improvement might be explained by the decrease in pulmonary inflation, although that parameter was not evaluated after the ET program.…”

The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of exercise training by means of a rehabilitative walking protocol. Twenty patients with COPD staged as III/IV according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease were included. Patients were evaluated at baseline and at the end of the exercise program regarding oxygen desaturation, sensation of dyspnea/fatigue, quality of life and six-minute walk distance. The comparison between the six-minute walk distance prior to and after training proved the efficacy of the protocol, which also resulted in a decrease in oxygen desaturation and in the sensation of dyspnea. This protocol can be easily put into practice.

Comparative survey of the six-minute walk test on the treadmill and on the corridor in cardiac patients [I] Estudo comparativo do teste da caminhada de seis minutos na esteira e no corredor em pacientes cardiopatas [A] Benedita Kamily Oliveira Magalhães [a] , Caio César Guimarães de Freitas [b] , Natália Bitar da Cunha Olegario [c] , Framartinho Carlos Silva Araújo [d] , Guilherme Pinheiro Ferreira da Silva [e] [a] Graduate, Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor), Fortaleza, CE -Brazil, e-mail: kamily2005@hotmail.com [b] Graduate, Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor), Fortaleza, CE -Brazil, e-mail: caiocesargf@hotmail.com [c] MSc, Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor), Fortaleza, CE -Brazil, e-mail: nath_bitar@hotmail.com [d] MSc, professor, Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor), Fortaleza, CE -Brazil, e-mail: araujofram@hotmail.com [e] MSc, professor, Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor), Fortaleza, CE -Brazil, e-mail: guilhermepinheiro87@hotmail.com [R] Abstract Introduction: The six minute walk test (6MWT) is considered an important tool in the evaluation of physical capacity, monitoration and the effectiveness of treatment in cardiac patients. Objective: To compare the 6MWT on the treadmill and corridor in cardiac patients. Methods: Participated 24 cardiac patients, being 12 male and 12 female with 56.7 ± 12.7 years age average, submitted to the six-minute walk test on the treadmill (6MWTT) and on the corridor (6MWTC) in an interval of seven days. The analyzed variables were: walked distance, respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and oxygen saturation (SatO 2 ). Results: It was statistically significant difference in the comparison between the tests for the variables: walked distance, SBP, DBP and SatO 2 (p > 0.05). The only statistically significant variable was the HR after the test application (p = 0.03). Conclusion: After the two tests application, there was similarity in the variables: walked distance, SBP, DBP and SatO 2 with no significant statistical differences. Only the HR presented statistical significance between groups at the end of the tests.
