Result of the 6-min walk test is an independent prognostic factor of surgically treated non-small-cell lung cancer

Abstract

Pathological tumour, node and metastasis (TNM) stage remains the most significant prognostic factor of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Meanwhile, age, gender, pulmonary function tests, the extent of surgical resection and the presence of concomitant diseases are commonly used to complete the prognostic profile of the patient with early stage of NSCLC. The aim of this study is to assess how the result of a 6-min walk test (6MWT) further assists in predicting the prognosis of NSCLC surgical candidates.
