What is the MCID for the 2 minute walk test?

Our study provides new information regarding the responsiveness properties of the 2-minute walk test and TUG. The MCID of the 2-minute walk test and TUG 12 months after surgery were 12.7 and 9.5, respectively. Our MCID can be used as a guide to follow each TKA patient routinely.

How far is a 2 minute walk?

Normative two-minute walk test distances varied from 150.3 m (women, 70 to 79 years) to 217.9 m (men, 20 to 29 tears).

How do you do the 3 minute walk test?

Baseline heart rate and SpO2 are obtained prior to test. The patient is instructed to walk at their own pace in the ED for three minutes, covering any distance they can within the time-frame. Assistance with walking aids is permitted; however, the patient may not be assisted by any person.

What is the purpose of the 2 minute walk Test?

What is the 1 minute walk test?

We concluded that the 1 minute walk test is a valid measure for assessing functional ability in children with ambulatory BSCP. Its cost-effectiveness and user friendliness make it a potentially useful tool in the clinical setting. Further study needs to address its reliability and ability to detect change over time.
