Publikováno v: Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, Vol 3, Iss 1, p 23 (2006)

Abstract Background and purpose The Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) has been employed as a measure of functional capacity, but its relationship to cardiorespiratory fitness in stroke is not well established. Gait speed measured over short distances is co
