Portable oxygen and exercise tolerance in patients with chronic hypoxic cor pulmonale.
Breathing 30% oxygen during exercise alleviated arterial hypoxaemia and reduced minute ventilation in patients with severe chronic bronchitis. A similar level of oxygen (2 or 4 ...
Twelve-minute walking test for assessing disability in chronic bronchitis.
The distance covered in 12 minutes' walking was used to test exercise tolerance in chronic bronchitis. The distance covered bore a poor relation to the forced expiratory volume ...
The six-minute walking test in children with cystic fibrosis: Reliability and validity
There is a need to judge general exercise tolerance in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) under normal daily activity conditions and -when more extensive testing is required-in ...
Is the 6-minute walk test a reliable substitute for peak oxygen uptake in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy?
The 6-min walk test correlated with peak oxygen uptake when tested serially over the course of the disease. Although both tests define two distinct domains of functional capacit...
