Agreement of different reference equations to classify patients with COPD as having reduced or preserved 6MWD

Agreement of different reference equations to classify patients with COPD as having reduced or preserved 6MWD

Background: Interpretation of the six-minute walk distance (6MWD) is enhanced by using recommended reference equations. Whenever possible, the choice of equation should be region-specific. A potential problem is that different equations for the 6MWD may have been developed for the same population, a...
