摘要

Functional tests such as Motor Function Measure-32 (MFM-32), supine to stand, ascend/ descend stairs permit the assessment of task-specific motor function in neuromuscular disease (NMD). The 6-min walk test (6MWT), though functional, is primarily used to assess endurance and disease progression in children with neuromuscular disorders. Barriers to 6MWT administration, in this population, can include reduced attention span due to age and inability to tolerate test length due to weakness. We propose task-specific functional deficits are related to endurance. Additionally, the 2-min walk test (2MWT) could effectively replace the 6MWT in this population. Seventy-seven participants, ages 5—18, with a variety of neuromuscular disorders performed the 6MWT, timed functional tests (TFT), and the MFM-32. Correlation and paired t-test analyses were used to compare the distance walked in the first 2 min (2MWD) to the distance walked in the entire 6 min (6MWD) and to the functional outcome measures above. The 2MWD strongly correlated with 6MWD and the other outcome measures. Paired t-test analysis also showed that the 2MWD did not differ from the distance walked in the last 2 min of the 6MWT. Although equivalence testing could not reject the claim that this difference exceeded the upper practical limit of 9.5 m, it only showed a modest overestimation of the 4–6MWD compared with the 2MWD. Together, our results support the ability of the 2MWD to predict the 6MWD, specifically in the pediatric neuromuscular disease population.
