| Popis: | Introduction. Liver diseases influence musculoskeletal functions and may negatively affect the exercise capacity of patients with cirrhosis.Aim. To test the relationship between the six-minutewalk test (6MWT),maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), and exercise capacity (VO 2peak) measures and the survival rate of patients with cirrhosis.Methods. This prospective cohort study consisted of 86 patients diagnosed with cirrhosis with the following aetiology: hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and/or alcoholic cirrhosis (AC). All patients were followed up for three years and submitted to the 6MWT, pressuremeasurements with a compound gauge, and an exercise test (VO 2peak). Results.The survival analysis showed that the individuals who covered a distance shorter than 410m during the 6MWT had a survival rate of 55% compared with a rate of 97% for the individuals who walked more than 410m (p = 0.0001). Individuals with MIPs below −70 cmH 2 O had a survival rate of 62% compared with a rate of 93% for those with MIPs above −70 cmH 2 O (p = 0.0001). The patients with values below 17mL/kg had a survival rate of 55% compared with a rate of 94% for those with values above 17mL/kg (p = 0.0001). Conclusion. The 6MWT distance, MIP, and oxygen consumption are predictors of mortality in patients with cirrhosis. |
