Term Description

The Six-Minute Walk Test is a timed test that requires minimal technical resources to measure the distance that a patient can quickly walk on a flat, hard surface in a period of 6 minutes (the six-minute walk distance, 6MWD). This measure has been shown to be a reproducible, objective indicator of functional capacity and is a part of the multicomponent BODE index (body-mass index, airflow obstruction, dyspnea, and exercise capacity) that correlates with survival. It is important to emphasize that this is a test of maximum exercise performance; subjects should be instructed and encouraged to push themselves to achieve maximal distance.
