The 6-minute walk test in heart failure (2006)
Journal Article
Ingle, L. (2006). The 6-minute walk test in heart failure. Cardiology review, 23(4), 39-42

We examined the relationship between the 6-minute walk test and self-perceived changes in symptoms in 1077 elderly patients with chronic heart failure. We found that changes in 6-minute walk test distance were sensitive to changes in self-perceived s... Read More about The 6-minute walk test in heart failure.
