ABSTRACT
The
objective of the study was to compare the physiological responses among COPD patient to Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) and Incremental Shuttle Walk Test (ISWT). Twenty subjects were recruited for both 6MWT and ISWT that
was carried out randomly. The readings of oxygen saturation (SpO2 ), heart rate (HR) and Modified Borg’s Score (MBS) were being taken before, during (each minute) and after each
test. There were no significant difference observed in the peak HR and MBS between 6MWT and ISWT. There was
no significant difference observed in the end SpO2 after both tests. In the two tests, HR and MBS increased
linearly and were proportionate with time. However, our results showed that the
distance walked in both test were significantly different and strongly related
with more distance covered in 6MWT, with p < 0.05 (p = 0.01) and R = 0.58. Both 6MWT and ISWT elicited
similar peak HRs and MBS suggesting both tests could be used to challenge patient to
certain levels of cardiovascular and respiratory stress. There was no
significant difference found in this study between the two tests. The two field
tests could produce similar physiological responses in COPD patient.

ABSTRAK
Objektif
kajian ini ialah untuk membandingkan perubahan fisiologi di kalangan pesakit COPD kepada Ujian Jalan Enam Minit (6MWT) dan Ujian Jalan Ulang-Alik Meningkat (ISWT). Sejumlah 20 subjek telah direkrut untuk 6MWT dan ISWT yang
dilakukan secara rawak. Bacaan ketepuan oksigen (SpO2), kadar denyutan jantung (HR) dan O2 Skor Borg’s
Termodifikasi (MBS) telah
diambil sebelum, semasa (setiap minit) dan selepas ujian. Tiada perbezaan yang
tekal diperoleh dalam peak HR dan MBS antara
ujian 6MWT dan ISWT yang dilakukan. Tiada perubahan yang signifikan diperolehi dalam
SpO2 akhir setelah menjalani kedua-dua ujian. Dalam kedua-dua ujian, HR dan MBS meningkat
secara linear dan berkadar langsung dengan masa. Namun kajian menunjukkan jarak
berjalan dalam kedua-dua ujian mempunyai perbedzaan yang bererti dan hubungan
yang agak kuat berkait dengan pertambahan jarak di dalam 6MWT, dengan p<0.05(p=0.01) dan R=0.58. Ujian 6MWT dan ISWT menghasilkan
peak HR dan MBS yang bersamaan menunjukkan ujian-ujian tersebut boleh digunakan
untuk menguji tahap keupayaan kardiovaskular dan tekanan respiratori. Kajian
ini menunjukkan tiada perbezaan yang bererti di antara kedua-dua ujian.
Kedua-dua ujian boleh menghasilkan respons fisiologi yang sama di kalangan
pesakit COPD.
