CLINICAL EVIDENCE & GUIDANCE

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT)?

Developed by the American Thoracic Society (ATS), the 6MWT measures submaximal aerobic endurance and functional exercise capacity across all ages.

What is the Enright & Sherrill formula?

In 1998, Enright and Sherrill published normative reference standards based on healthy older adults: Men 6MWD = (7.57 × height cm) - (5.02 × age) - (1.76 × weight kg) - 309m. Women 6MWD = (2.11 × height cm) - (2.29 × weight kg) - (5.78 × age) + 667m.

What is a meaningful change in 6-minute walk distance?

Clinical literature considers an improvement of 30 to 50 metres as a statistically significant gain in cardiovascular reserve and stamina.
