摘要
六分钟步行试验是目前已被公认的评价受试者心肺功能研究方法之一。它操作简便、安全、可重复性高、费用低廉。由于它在慢性肺疾病患者病死率中具有很高的预测价值，而被频繁用于监测肺功能。在慢性肺部疾病的严重阶段，六分钟步行距离越短提示患者的肺功能越差。本文就六分钟步行试验的方法、评价慢性肺部疾病预后等进行综述。
The six-minute walk test（6MWT）has been acknowledged as a method of evaluating cardiorespiratory function. This test is simple to perform, inexpensive, reproducible and safe. It has been frequently employed for the assessment of chronic pulmonary function due to its high prognostic value of mortality. In severe stages of the disease,the declining results of the best are useful to detect worsening. This review describes the method, its predictive value for mortality and its value in the assessment of patients with severe chronic pulmonary disease.
