Abstract
The SMWT is a constant load exercise in COPD patients, regardless of disease severity. It imposes high metabolic, ventilatory and cardiovascular requirements, which were closer to those of CPET in severe COPD. These findings may explain the close correlation between distance walked and peak CPET îO2.
