RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To compare the physical performance and responses obtained in the six-minute walking test (6MWT) and the six-minute step test (6MST) between asthmatic and healthy adolescents; and to investigate the relationship between the responses obtained in the tests and the body mass index (BMI), physical activity level and spirometric variables. METHODS: Nineteen asthmatic adolescents (AG) and 19 healthy adolescents (HG) of both sexes, aged between 11 and 15 years, were assessed by means of spirometry, the 6MWT and the 6MST, and their physical activity levels were quantified using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). RESULTS: The AG had poorer physical performance, lower heart rate (HR) and greater lower-limb (LL) fatigue in the 6MST. In the 6MWT, the AG had positive correlations between walked distance (WD) and duration of intense activity, and between HR and BMI, whereas the HG had positive correlations between WD and HR and between WD and respiratory rate (RR). In the 6MST, the AG showed positive correlations between RR and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) and between duration of moderate activity and physical performance. The AG also showed negative correlations between physical performance in the 6MST and BMI, and between sensation of dyspnea and duration of walking. Also in the 6MST, the HG showed positive correlations between RR and MVV, and between BMI and LL fatigue (p < or = 0.05). CONCLUSION: The 6MST demonstrated differences in exercise capacity between the asthmatic and healthy individuals. Furthermore, the physical performance and responses obtained in the tests were correlated with the MVV, BMI and physical activity level.

RESUMO

OBJETIVOS: Comparar o desempenho físico e as respostas obtidas nos testes de caminhada de seis minutos (TC6) e do degrau de seis minutos (TD6) entre adolescentes asmáticos e saudáveis e correlacionar o índice de massa corpórea (IMC), o nível de atividade física e as variáveis espirométricas com as variáveis obtidas nos testes. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados 19 adolescentes asmáticos (GA) e 19 saudáveis (GS), com idades entre 11 e 15 anos, de ambos os sexos, por meio da espirometria, do TC6 e do TD6 e foi quantificado o nível de atividade física pelo Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física (IPAQ). RESULTADOS: No TD6, observaram-se menores valores de desempenho físico (TD6-T) e frequência cardíaca (FC) e maiores valores de fadiga de membros inferiores (MMII) no GA. No TC6, houve correlação positiva no GA da distância percorrida (DP) com o tempo de atividade intensa e da FC com o IMC e, no GS, da DP com a FC e com a frequência respiratória (FR). No TD6, houve correlação positiva no GA da ventilação voluntária máxima (VVM) com a FR; do tempo de atividade moderada com o TD6-T; além de correlação negativa do TD6-T com o IMC e da dispneia com o tempo de caminhada; no GS, correlações positivas da VVM com a FR e da fadiga de MMII com IMC (p<0,05). CONCLUSÃO: O TD6 demonstrou diferença na capacidade para o exercício entre asmáticos e saudáveis. Além disso, o desempenho físico e as respostas obtidas nos testes correlacionaram-se com os valores de VVM, IMC e nível de atividade física.
