متن کاملEvaluation of functional capacity for exercise in children and adolescents with sickle-cell disease through the six-minute walk test.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate lung functional capacity (FC) for physical exercise in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease (SCD) through the six-minute walk test (6MWT). METHOD A cross-sectional prospective study was performed to evaluate the FC of 46 patients with SCD through the 6MWT. The following parameters were assessed: heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), peripheral pulse oxygen...
متن کاملThe Six-Minute Walk Test for adults with intellectual disability: a study of validity and reliability.
BACKGROUND The Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) has been used with clinical and healthy populations to assess functional capacity and cardiovascular fitness. The aim of this study was to determine the test-retest reliability of a modified-6MWT as well as concurrent validity of walk distance with peak oxygen uptake (VO₂ peak). METHOD Participants were 13 adults (males = 7) with intellectual disabil...
