1 Six-Minute Walk Test in Children With Cerebral Palsy Gross Motor Function Classification System Levels I and II: Reproducibility, Validity, and Training Effects  Angeline Nsenga Leunkeu, PhD, Roy J. Shephard, MD, PhD, DPE, LLD, Said Ahmaidi, PhD, PU  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 93, Issue 12, Pages (December 2012) DOI: /j.apmr Copyright © 2012 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Reproducibility of (A) V̇o2, (B) V̇e, and (C) heart rate measured on 2 repeated 6MWTs and during 5 minutes of recovery; mean ± SD. Abbreviations: NS, not significant; 6WT-1, 6-minute walk test measurement 1; 6WT-2, 6-minute walk test measurement 2.

3 Fig 2 Bland-Altman plot of cardiorespiratory parameters (A) V̇o2peak, (B) V̇epeak, (C) peak heart rate, and (D) distance walked between measurements 1 and 2. The x axes show means of peak cardiorespiratory parameters and distance walked from both tests; the y axes show the differences between peak cardiorespiratory parameters and distance walked during measurements 1 and 2. Abbreviation: HRpeak, peak heart rate. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , DOI: ( /j.apmr ) Copyright © 2012 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 Cardiorespiratory data of (A) V̇o2peak, (B) V̇epeak, (C) peak heart rate measured during the 6MWT for training and control groups before (CPcontrolsBT and CPBT) and after training (CPcontrolsAT and CPAT); mean ± SD. Abbreviations: CPcontrolsAT, CP control group after training; CPcontrolsBT, CP control group before training; CPAT, CP group after training; CPBT, CP group before training; NS, not statistically significant. *P<.05.
