2014年1月22日 · The 10MWT assesses walking speed in meters per second over a short duration. Instrument Details. The individual is instructed to walk a set distance (6 meters, 10 meters, etc).

Cut-of scores and normative values may be used in conjunction with a complete evaluation to interpret the meaning of a patient’s 10mWT score. What Constitutes a Change in Gait Speed? Change can be determined using values of Minimal Detectable Change (MDC), Smallest Detectable Change (SDC) and Minimal Clinically Important Diference (MCID).

The 10 Metre Walk Test is a performance measure used to assess walking or gait speed in meters per second over a short distance [1]. It can be employed to determine functional mobility, gait, and vestibular function [2].

Normal comfortable speed: “I will say ready, set, go. When I say go, walk at your normal comfortable speed until I say stop” Maximum speed trials: “I will say ready, set, go. When I say go, walk as fast as you safely can until I say stop”

The 10mWT is used to assess walking speed in meters/second (m/s) over a short distance. A clear pathway of at least 10 m (32.8 ft) in length in a designated area over solid flooring is required. Measure and mark the start and end point of a 10-m walkway. Add a mark at 2 m and 8 m (identifying the central 6 m which will be timed).

The 10-m walk test (10MWT) is widely used and recommended as a measure of gait speed in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Its measurement properties are considered good and the test can be used to identify changes in gait speed in response to therapeutic interventions .
