Abstrakt: The article focuses on exploring the feasibility and validity of shorter walk tests, particularly the 1-minute walk test (1MWT), as alternatives to the traditional 6-minute walk test (6MWT) in assessing exercise capacity in cardiorespiratory diseases like pulmonary hypertension (PH) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). It challenges the convention of the six minute duration and investigates the practicality of conducting shorter walk tests in a community setting using digital technology.
