The six-minute walk test (6MWT) is widely used as an outcome measure in pulmonary rehabilitation programs (PRP). A learning effect for the test has been reported in COPD; however, limited data exist in patients with other respiratory diagnoses. The objectives of this study were to: (i) report the magnitude of change in 6MWD with test repetition in patients referred to an outpatient PRP, and (ii) compare the magnitude of change in 6MWD with test repetition in patients with COPD, interstitial lung disease (ILD), bronchiectasis and asthma.
