Six-minute walk test in pulmonary arterial hypertension
Exercise intolerance is the main characteristic of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The six-minute walk test (6MWT) and cardiopulmonary exercise test are widely used in assessing exercise capacity of PAH patients. Six-minute walk distance (6MWD) has been specified as the main clinical outcome in PAH and has been used as the primary end-point in many studies conducted for new PAH treatment...
متن کاملIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: prognostic value of changes in physiology and six-minute-walk test.
RATIONALE AND HYPOTHESIS Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a fatal disease with a variable rate of progression. We hypothesized that changes in distance walked and quantity of desaturation during a six-minute-walk test (6MWT) would add prognostic information to changes in FVC or diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide. METHODS One hundred ninety-seven patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis...
متن کاملThe Six-minute Walk Test (6MWT) for the Evaluation of Pulmonary Diseases
The six-minute walk test (6MWT) is a well-tolerated test which reflects daily activities and can be easily used in clinical practice. The 6MWT provides information about functional capacity, response to therapy and prognosis across a range of chronic cardiopulmonary conditions. Moreover, the 6MWT is sensitive to the common therapies used for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, such as pulmon...
متن کاملHeart Rate Recovery in the First Minute at the Six-Minute Walk Test in Patients with Heart Failure
BACKGROUND Heart rate recovery at one minute of rest (HRR1) is a predictor of mortality in heart failure (HF), but its prognosis has not been assessed at six-minute walk test (6MWT) in these patients. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the HRR1 at 6MWT in patients with HF and its correlation with six-minute walk distance (6MWD). METHODS Cross-sectional, controlled protocol with 161 ind...
متن کاملHeart rate responses during the 6-minute walk test in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) exhibit a limited increase in stroke volume on exercise, and the heart rate (HR) increases may reflect the main mechanism that allows cardiac output to increase. The current prospective study documented the contribution of HR to the 6-min walking distance (6MWD) in idiopathic (IPAH) and nonidiopathic PAH. Eighty-three patients (46 IPAH and 37 ...
