Comparison of 6-minute walk test performance between male Active Duty soldiers and servicemembers with and without traumatic lower-limb loss
Alison A. Linberg, DPT, ATC, et al.
We established reference data for a commonly
used functional outcome measure, the 6-minute walk
test, for servicemembers with and without lowerlimb
loss. These data will help clinicians and military
and nonmilitary individuals with lower-limb loss
track progression of rehabilitation and set realistic
function and mobility goals for rehabilitation.
