Normative reference values and regression equations to predict the 6-minute walk distance in the Asian adult population aged 21–80 years
Summary at a glance: The 6-min walk test (6MWT) is a widely used field walking test. This study reports the normative reference values (NRV) of distance walked during 6MWT (6MWD) in healthy Singaporeans (aged 21–80) and updates the 6MWD reference equations. This information may facilitate the interp...
