Abstract Background and purpose The Six-Minute Walk Test 6MWT has been employed as a measure of functional capacity but its relationship to cardiorespiratory fitness in stroke is not well established. Gait speed measured over short distances is commonly used as an index of walking competency following stroke. We evaluated the relationship between the 6MWT aerobic fitness VO2peak and walking competency in sub-acute stroke. Methods Thirty-six individuals mean age SD 64.6 14.4 years time post-stroke 16.2 13.3 days were evaluated using the 6MWT distance speed heart rate a maximal exercise test VO2peak heart rate exercise test duration and walking competency using a five meter walk speed symmetry ratio . Correlation analyses were used to examine the relationships between these outcomes. Results There was a strong .
