BACKGROUND: We investigated the relationships among the 5 m walk test (5mWT), walking speed during the first 5 m of the 10 m walk test (5'10mWT), 10 m walk test (10mWT), and 6 min walk test (6MWT).
OBJECTIVE: To validate whether the 5mWT and 5'10mWT can predict the walking speed in 10mWT and distance covered in 6MWT.
METHODS: A total of 21 stroke participants underwent functional assessments using the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and Fugl - Meyer Assessment for the lower extremity (FMA-L/E). Walking speed was measured using the 5mWT, 5'10mWT, and 10mWT, and walking distance was assessed using the 6MWT.
RESULTS: The mean speeds for the 5mWT (0.77 ± 0.43 m/s), 5'10mWT (0.73 ± 0.38 m/s), and 10mWT (0.77 ± 0.42 m/s) did not significantly differ (p = .084). The 5mWT strongly correlated with 5'10mWT, 10mWT, and 6MWT (r = .945-.997, p < .001), and 10mWT closely correlated with 5'10mWT and 6MWT (r = .946-.994, p < .001) Regression analysis showed that the explanatory power of 5mWT and 5'10mWT in predicting 10mWT walking speed was 99% (p < .001) and 97% (p < .001), respectively, whereas that for 6MWT walking distance was 86% (p < .001) and 88% (p < .001), respectively.
CONCLUSION: Both 5mWT and 5'10mWT reliably predicted walking speed (10mWT) and distance (6MWT), in individuals with stroke, enabling quick and valid assessments of speed and endurance with limited space and serving as potential alternatives to both 10mWT and 6MWT. High correlations among the tests suggest interchangeability, reinforcing the clinical utility of the 5mWT and 5'10mWT for stroke populations in spatially and temporally constrained settings.
