Özet:

 Aim: Chronic respiratory disease CRD is frequently associated with a reduced exercise capacity. Exercise capacity is routinely assessed through six-minute walk test 6MWT, but the sit-to-stand test STST is commonly explored as an alternative test method in various conditions. The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between the 6MWT and the 1-minute STST 1min-STST and 30-second STST 30s-STST in children with CRD. Materials and Method: A total of 159 children mean age: 11.743.41 years with CRD asthma, primary ciliary dyskinesia, cystic fibrosis, Kartageners Syndrome, and postinfectious bronchiectasis were included in the study. All participants performed 1min-STST, 30s-STST, and 6MWT. Test results and cardiorespiratory responses to tests were recorded. Results: 6MWT was strongly correlated with the 1min-STST and 30s-STST r0.769, r0.758, respectively p0.001. Levels of dyspnea and fatigue after the 1min-STST and 30s-STST were significant but weakly correlated with levels of dyspnea and fatigue after the 6MWT dyspnea r0.245, r0.248, respectively; fatigue r0.239, r0.241, respectively p0.05. There were statistically significant differences among the tests regarding cardiorespiratory responses p0.05. There were statistically significant differences among the disease groups in terms of 6MWT, 30s-STST, and 1min-STST p0.028, p0.038, and p0.035, respectively p0.05. Conclusion: 30s-STST and 1min-STST may serve as practical, efficient, and time-saving alternatives for assessing exercise capacity in children with CRD.

 Amaç: Kronik solunum hastalığı, azalmış egzersiz kapasitesi ile sıklıkla ilişkilendirilmektedir. Egzersiz kapasitesi genellikle altı dakika yürüme testi 6DYT ile değerlendirilir, ancak otur-kalk testi OKT, çeşitli durumlarda alternatif bir test yöntemi olarak araştırılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, kronik solunum hastalığı olan çocuklarda 6DYT ile 1 dakika OKT 1dk-OKT ve 30 saniye OKT 30sn-OKT arasındaki korelasyonunun araştırması amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya kronik solunum hastalığı olan astım, primer siliyer diskinezi, kistik fibrozis, Kartagener Sendromu ve post-enfeksiyöz bronşektazi 159 çocuk ortalama yaş: 11.743.41 yıl dahil edildi. Tüm katılımcılara 1dk-OKT, 30sn-OKT ve 6DYT uygulandı. Test sonuçları ve testlere verilen kardiyorespiratuar yanıtlar kaydedildi. Bulgular: 6DYT mesafesi ile 1dk-OKT ve 30sn-OKT arasında güçlü bir korelasyon saptandı sırasıyla r0.769, r0.758; p0.001. 1dk-OKT ve 30sn-OKT sonrası ölçülen dispne ve yorgunluk seviyeleri, istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmakla birlikte, 6DYT sonrası dispne ve yorgunluk seviyeleri ile zayıf bir korelasyon gösterdi. dispne r0.245 ve r0.248; yorgunluk r0.239 ve r0.241; p0.05. Kardiyorespiratuar yanıtlar açısından testler arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark tespit edildi p0.05. Hastalık grupları arasında 6DYT, 30sn-OKT ve 1dk-OKT sonuçları açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık saptandı sırasıyla p  0.028, p  0.038 ve p  0.035; p0.05. Sonuç: 30sn-OKT ve 1dk-OKT, kronik solunum hastalığı olan çocuklarda egzersiz kapasitesini değerlendirmek için geçerli, etkili ve zaman tasarrufu sağlayan alternatif yöntemlerdir.
