Resumo:
O teste de caminhada em seis minutos (TC6M) avalia a capacidade respiratória durante o exercício. Recentemente, o teste do degrau em seis minutos (TD6M) está sendo estudado como uma proposta para essa mesma avaliação. Diante do exposto, o desenvolvimento de uma equação de referência se torna importante. O objetivo desse estudo foi desenvolver uma equação de referência padrão para o Teste do Degrau em Seis minutos. Esse estudo foi do tipo transversal, em que foram selecionados 452 indivíduos. Após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão/exclusão, foram selecionados 326 sujeitos saudáveis e sedentários com idade entre 20 e 80 anos. Para serem considerados saudáveis, os participantes não podiam ter história de doenças (exceto hipertensão arterial sistêmica ou diabetes mellitus em tratamento) e foram submetidos à radiografia de tórax, espirometria e eletrocardiograma, que deveriam ser normais. O nível de sedentarismo foi avaliado através do International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Foram coletados os seguintes dados demográficos: idade, peso e altura. Todos os indivíduos realizaram TD6M na sua própria cadência (autocadenciado) em um degrau de 16,5 cm de altura, 65 de largura e 30 cm de comprimento. O número de subidas e descidas foi contado por um pedômetro digital. Foram mensuradas a pressão arterial, a frequência cardíaca e a saturação de oxigênio, antes e depois do TD6M. A análise estatística foi realizada pelo software STATA 12.0, e as equações foram desenvolvidas pelo modelo estatístico de regressão linear múltipla. Como resultado, observou-se que os participantes apresentaram exames normais, sendo 135 homens e 191 mulheres. O IPAQ demonstrou 157 ativos, 114 irregularmente ativos e 40 inativos, sendo que 14 indivíduos não responderam. A análise da distância alcançada em relação à idade e à diferença da frequência cardíaca tanto para homens quanto para mulheres mostrou significância estatística, demonstrando a sua importância para o desenvolvimento das equações para cada gênero. Para mulheres: Distância (m) = 88,83 - [(FC final- FC inicial)* 0,23] (Idade *0,37); para homens: Distância (m)= 110,20 - [(FC final- FC inicial)*0,18] (Idade * 0,59). O estudo concluiu que as equações de referência desenvolvidas nesse estudo foram realizadas em uma população de indivíduos saudáveis e sedentários e pode ser usada como padrão de referência para o TD6M.

Introduction: The ability to walk is impaired in obese by anthropometric factors (BMI and height), musculoskeletal pain and level of inactivity. Little is known about the influence of body adiposity and the acute response of the cardiovascular system during whole the 6-minute walk test (6mWT). Objective: To evaluate the effect of anthropometric measures (BMI and WHR waist-to-hip ratio), the effort heart and inactivity in ability to walk the morbidly obese. Materials and Methods: a total 36 morbidly obese (36.23 + 11.82 years old, BMI 49.16 kg/m2) were recruited from outpatient department of treatment of obesity and bariatric surgery in University Hospital Onofre Lopes and anthropometric measurements of obesity (BMI and WHR), pulmonary function, pattern habitual physical activity (Baecke Questionnaire) and walking capacity (6mWT). The patient was checking to measure: heart rate (HR), breathing frequency (BF), peripheral oxygen saturation, level of perceived exertion, systemic arterial pressure and duplo-produto (DP), moreover the average speed development and total distance walking. The data were analysed between gender and pattern of body adiposity, measuring the behavior minute by minute of walking. The Pearson and Spearmam correlation coefficients were calculated, and stepwise multiple Regression examined the predictors of walking capacity. All analyses were performed en software Statistic 6.0. Results: 20 obese patients had abdominal adiposity (WHR = 1.01), waist circumference was 135.8 cm in women (25) and 139.8 cm in men (10). Walked to the end of 6mWT 412.43 m, with no differences between gender and adiposity. The total distance walked by obesity alone was explained by BMI (45%), HR in the sixth minute (43%), the Baecke (24%) and fatigue (-23%). 88.6% of obese (31) performed the test above 60% of maximal HR, while the peak HR achieved at 5-minute of 6mWT. Systemic arterial pressure and DP rised after walking, but with no differences between gender and adiposity. Conclusion: The walk of obese didn´t suffers influence of gender or the pattern of body adiposity. The final distance walked is attributed to excess body weight, stress heart, the feeling of effort required by physical activity and level of sedentary to obese. With a minute of walking, the obeses achieved a range of intensity cardiovascular trainning

Morbidly obese patients present an increase in heart rate, blood pressure and perceived exertion besides lower walking ability compared to normal weight people. However, little is known about how these variables are presented after bariatric surgery. Moreover, despite the distance walked during the six-minute walk (6MWT) improve after surgery is not well established if the level of physical activity influences this improvement. Objective: To evaluate cardiovascular performance, perceived effort, ability of walking and physical activity level of patients with morbid obesity before and after bariatric surgery. Methods: The cardiovascular performance, perception of effort, the ability to walk and level of physical activity were assessed in 22 patients before (BMI = 50.4 kg/m2) and after (BMI = 34.8 kg/m2) bariatric surgery through the 6MWT. The heart rate, blood pressure and perceived exertion were assessed at rest, at the end of the 6MWT and in the second minute post-test (HR recovery). The ability to walk was measured by total distance walked at the end of the test while the level of physical activity was estimated by applying the Baecke questionnaire, analyzing domains occupation, leisure and locomotion and leisure and physical activity. Results: The HR at rest and recovery decreased significantly (91.2 ± 15.8 bpm vs. 71.9 ± 9.8 bpm, 99.5 ± 15.3 bpm vs 82.5 ± 11.1 bpm, respectively), as well as all the arterial pressure and perceived exertion after surgery. The distance achieved by the patients increased by 58.4 m (p = 0.001) postoperatively. Time postoperatively had correlation with the percentage of excess weight lost (r = 0.48, p = 0.02), BMI (r =- 0.68, p = 0.001) and the Baecke (r = 0.52, p = 0.01) which did not happen with the distance walked (r = 0.37, p = 0.09). Despite weight loss, patients showed no difference in the level of physical activity in any of the areas before and after surgery. Conclusion: The cardiovascular performance, the perception of effort and ability to walk seem to improve after bariatric surgery. However, despite improvement in the ability to walk by the distance achieved in the 6MWT after weight loss, this is not reflected in an increase in physical activity level of obese patients after surgery

Backgroud: Obesity is a major public health problem and is related to the low physical capacity when obese are compared to no-obese people, however the cause of this limitation is not completely understood. The measurement associated of physiological response to the telemetric 6MWT adds information of metabolic and respiratory system for diagnose of the functional limitation. Objective: Analyze physiological, metabolic and ventilatory responses in women with different body fat during the 6MWT. Methods: 32 women (8 non-obese, 8 Overweight, 8 Obese and 8 morbidly obese) were evaluated for anthropometry, lung function and exercise capacity. Results: Morbidly obese walked the shortest distance (400.2±38.7m), had lower VO2/Kg (12.75±3.20l/Kg/min) and lower R (0.74± 0.11) in the 6MWT compared to other groups. Analyses of metabolic (VO2 and VCO2) and respiratory (VE, VT and BF) during the test did not identify differences between groups. The evaluation of cardiac function (O2 pulse) found higher values in the OM (12.3 ± 4.9ml/bat). Conclusion: The OM had worse performance in the 6MWT compared to other groups. The physical performance may be reduced in this population related to a protocol-dependent response because the speed of 6MWT is self-adjusted allows the individual himself select the intensity of the test, making it set at a speed where there is energy saving

The term fatigability concerns the degree of fatigue associated with performing an activity of any type (physical, mental, emotional and / or social). Recently scales for assessing fatigue in the English language were created, however, gaps exist regarding the validity of these scales in relation to oxygen consumption and levels of perceived fatigue. Objective: To investigate the validity of perceived fatigability scale in older women frail and non-frail by the expired gases kinetics. Methods: This is a study of type validation, where were evaluated 48 elderly. The evaluation was conducted at two different sessions. In the first, data were collected demographic partners, as well as assessment of cognitive function, physical health, and the phenotype of frailty. The second was composed by the test 6-minute walk (6MWT) associated the expired gases kinects and assessment of perceived fatigability. Statistical analysis was performed a descriptive analysis and then we used the Pearson correlation test to evaluate the relationship between the measure of perceived fatigue and variables oxygen consumption (VO2), carbon dioxide production (VCO2), respiratory exchange ratio (RER)before and after 6MWT. We used a linear regression model initially considering the following explanatory variable: age, Body Mass Index (BMI), presence of frailty, comorbidities, level of physical activity, distance covered in the 6MWT , the energy cost of walking and severity of fatigability on performance. Results: The final sample consisted of 44 elderly women, 4 elderly were excluded because they didn t complete all phases of this study. The mean age obtained was 75 years (± 7.2 years). There was no significant correlation between fatigability measures and the values of VO2 ( r = .09 , p = .56 ) , VCO2 ( r = .173 , p = .26 ) , RER ( r = - .121 , p = .43 ). The final linear regression model showed that the energy cost of walking, the usual level of physical activity and the performance severity of fatigability explained 83.5 % (R2 = 0.835, p < 0.01) of the variation in the perceived fatigability. Conclusion: Our findings indicate a relationship between greater severity of fatigability and lower levels of physical activity and increased energy cost in walking, suggesting that the fatigability analyses using a simple numeric scale is valid and viable for assessment of fatigue in older women

obesity affects rightly functional capacity diminishing the cardiovascular system efficiency and oxygen uptake (VO2). Field tests, such as, Incremental Shuttle Walking Test (ISWT) and Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) has been employed as alternative of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPX), to functional assessing for conditions which transport of oxygen to peripheral is diminished. Nevertheless, the knowing about metabolic variables response in real time and it comparing among different maximal and submaximal tests in obese is absent. Aim: to compare cardiopulmonary, metabolic response during CPX, ISWT and 6MWT and to analyse it influence of adiposity markers in obese. Material e Method: crosssectional, prospective study. Obese included if: (BMI>30Kg/m2; FVC>80%), were assessed as clinical, anthropometric (BMI, body adiposity index-BAI, waist-WC, hip- HC and neck-NC circumferences) and spirometry (forced vital capacity-FVC, Forced expiratory volume-1°second-FEV1, maximal voluntary ventilation-MVV) variables. Obese performed the sequence of tests: CPX, ISWT and 6MWT. Throughout tests was assessed breath-by-breath by telemetry system (Cortex-Biophysik-Metamax3B) variables; oxygen uptake on peak of activity (VO2peak); carbon dioxide production (VCO2); Volume Expiratory (VE); ventilatory equivalents for VO2 (VE/VO2) and CO2 (VE/VCO2); respiratory exchange rate (RER) and perceived effort-Borg6-20). Results: 15 obese (10women) 39.4+10.1years, normal spirometry (%CVF=93.7+9.7) finished all test. They have BMI (43.5+6.6kg/m2) and different as %adiposity (BAI=50.0+10.5% and 48.8+16.9% respectively women and men). Difference of VO2ml/kg/min and %VO2 were finding between CPX (18.6+4.0) and 6MWT (13.2+2.5) but not between ISWT (15.4+2.9). Agreement was found for ISWT and CPX on VO2Peak (3.2ml/kg/min; 95%; IC-3.0 9.4) and %VO2 (16.4%). VCO2(l/min) confirms similarity in production for CPX (2.3+1.0) and ISWT (1.7+0.7) and difference for 6MWT (1.4+0.6). WC explains more the response of CPX and ISWT than other adiposity markers. Adiposity diminishes 3.2% duration of CPX. Conclusion: ISWT promotes similar metabolic and cardiovascular response than CPX in obese. It suggesting that ISWT could be useful and reliable to assess oxygen uptake and functional capacity in obese

Introdução A poluição do ar é um fator de risco associado com descompensação e mortalidade em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca (IC). Objetivo Avaliar o impacto de um filtro de polipropileno sobre desfechos cardiovasculares em pacientes com IC e voluntários saudáveis durante exposição controlada à poluição. Métodos Ensaio clínico duplocego, controlado e cruzado, incluindo 26 pacientes com IC e 15 voluntários saudáveis, expostos a três protocolos diferentes de inalação randomizados por ordem: Ar Limpo; Exposição à Partículas de Exaustão do Diesel (ED); e ED filtrada. Os desfechos estudados foram função endotelial por índice de hiperemia reativa (RHi) e índice de aumento (Aix), biomarcadores séricos, variáveis de teste cardiopulmonar submáximo (caminhada de seis-minutos [tc6m]; consumo de oxigênio [VO2]; equivalente ventilatório de gás carbônico [VE/VCO2 slope]; consumo de O2 por batida [PulsoO2]) e variabilidade da frequência cardíaca (VFC). Resultados No grupo IC, a ED piorou o RHi [de 2,17 (IQR: 1,8-2,5) para 1,72 (IQR: 1,5-2,2); p=0,002], reduziu o VO2 [de 11.0 ± 3.9 para 8.4±2.8ml/Kg/min; p < 0.001], o tc6m [de 243,3±13 para 220,8 ± 14m; p=0,030] e o PulsoO2 [de 8.9 ± 1.0 para 7.8±0.7ml/bpm; p < 0.001]; e aumentou o BNP [de 47,0pg/ml (IQR: 17,3-118,0) para 66,5pg/ml (IQR: 26,5-155,5); p=0,004]. O filtro foi capaz de reduzir a concentração de poluição de 325±31 para 25±6?g/m3 (p < 0,001 vs. ED). No grupo IC, o filtro foi associado com melhora no RHi [2,06 (IQR: 1,5-2,6); p=0,019 vs. ED); aumento no VO2 (10.4 ± 3.8ml/Kg/min; p < 0.001 vs. ED) e PulsoO2 (9.7±1.1ml/bpm; p < 0.001 vs. ED); e redução no BNP [44,0pg/ml (IQR: 20,0-110,0); p=0,015 vs. ED]. Em ambos os grupos, a ED reduziu o Aix, sem efeito do filtro. O uso do filtro foi associado com maior ventilação e reinalação de CO2. Outras variáveis pesquisadas como VE/VCO2 slope e VFC não sofreram influências entre os protocolos. Conclusão A poluição do ar afetou adversamente o desempenho cardiovascular de pacientes com IC. Este é o primeiro ensaio clínico demonstrando que um simples filtrorespiratório pode prevenir a disfunção endotelial, a intolerância ao exercício e o aumento do BNP associados à poluição em pacientes com IC. O uso de máscaras com filtro tem o potencial de reduzir a morbidade associada à IC. Identificador ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01960920
