Six-minute walk test reveals delayed oxygen uptake kinetics in ischemic cardiomyopathy by I.S. Rocco, B.C. Matos-Garcia, M. Viceconte, C. Bublitz, F.S. Menezes-Rodrigues, F.S. Tallo, R.M. Arida, W.J. Gomes, N.A. Hossne Junior, R. Arena, S. Guizilini

“…Although correlated to peak oxygen uptake (VO2), the six-minute walk test (6MWT) alone cannot provide precise physiological insight regarding the specific cause(s) of exercise limitations. We aimed to analyze whether 6MWT is able to properly detect differences in the cardiorespiratory responses between patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) and those with ischemic cardiomyopathy (IC) and determine whether the degree of abnormality in ejection fraction is related with impaired submaximal exercise capacity. …”
