Teste de caminhada de seis minutos: uma ferramenta valiosa na avaliação do comprometimento pulmonar

Abstract: Over the last few years, the use of exercise tests has come to be recognized as a convenient method of evaluating respiratory function, because the reserves of the various systems in the human body should be known in order to provide a more complete portrayal of the functional capacities of the patient. Because walking is one of the main activities of daily living, walk tests have been proposed in order to measure the state or the functional capacity of patients. The six-minute walk test has proven to be repro… Show more

“…Endurance testing in MPS VI patients as measured by the 6MWT provides an indication of cardiopulmonary health, endurance, mobility and extent of morbidity [Morales-Blanhir et al, 2011]. In the Resurvey Study, the patients who completed the 6MWT walked a mean of 65.7 m ( P <.0001) more at follow-up.…”

“…( 1 , 2 ) End-exercise PaO 2 decreases after maximal exercise, and submaximal steady-state exercise was found to be an important measure of disease severity in interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. ( 3 , 4 ) Lama et al demonstrated that patients with usual interstitial pneumonia who developed oxygen desaturation during and after a six-minute walk test (6MWT)–a ≥ 4% decrease in oxygen saturation from baseline (∆sat ≥ 4%)–were more than four times more likely to die during follow-up.…”

“…( 1 , 2 ) A PaO 2 ao final do exercício diminui após o exercício máximo, e o exercício de estado estacionário submáximo mostrou-se uma importante medida da gravidade da doença na fibrose pulmonar intersticial. ( 3 , 4 ) Lama et al demonstraram que pacientes com pneumonia intersticial usual que apresentaram dessaturação de oxigênio durante e após um teste de caminhada de seis minutos (TC6) – uma diminuição ≥ 4% da saturação de oxigênio em relação à saturação basal (Î"sat ≥ 4%) – eram mais de quatro vezes mais propensos a morrer durante o seguimento.…”

“…Even as a submaximal exercise test, 6MWT assists in making the most appropriate therapeutic measures [24]. Moreover, it presents itself as a promising tool in the field of medical research, so Tx experts should also be aware of its both pre-and postoperatively advantages [29].…”
