Reduced functional ability and exercise tolerance in patients with heart failure (HF) are
associated with poor quality of life and a worse prognosis. The 6-minute walking test …

Measurement of exercise capacity is an integral element in assessment of patients with
cardiopulmonary disease. The 6‐min walk test (6MWT) provides information regarding …

BACKGROUND: It is important to include large sample sizes and different factors that
influence the six-minute walking distance (6MWD) in order to propose reference equations …

We assessed the 6-min walk distance (6MWD) and body weight x distance product (6MWw)
in healthy Brazilian subjects and compared measured 6MWD with values predicted in five …

Objective: The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) is an established measure of exercise capacity in
adults and children with chronic cardiac or respiratory disease. Despite its widespread use …

Objective To provide reference values and reference equations for frequently used clinical
field tests of health-related physical fitness for use in clinical practice. Design Cross …

Objective To provide an overview of the reference values and methodology used to obtain
them for time-and distance-limited walk tests. Methods We performed a systematic review …

Introduction: The 6-minute walk test is a submaximal exercise test used to quantify the
functional exercise capacity in clinical populations. It measures the distance walked within a …

Six-minute walk distance (6MWD) is commonly used as a measure of functional exercise
capacity in clinical practice and research. Regression equations to predict 6MWD in healthy …

Objective: To develop regression equations for six-minute walk distance (6MWD) in healthy
adults (20-80 years of age) in Brazil. Methods: We included 132 volunteers (66 males) …
