NCT ID: NCT05338437
Last Updated: 2026-06-10
Results Overview
6 MW was developed to assess cardiopulmonary fitness in patients with lung and cardiac disease, and has been validated in heart failure patients. It assesses the distance that a patient can walk in 6 minutes time around a standard course.

Timeframe: Hospital discharge (Within 1 day) and 4-weeks post-dischargeThe Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living, commonly referred to as the Katz ADL, is the most appropriate instrument to assess functional status as a measurement of the client's ability to perform activities of daily living independently. Clinicians typically use the tool to detect problems in performing activities of daily living and to plan care accordingly. The Index ranks adequacy of performance in the six functions of bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and feeding. Clients are scored yes/no for independence in each of the six functions. A score of 6 indicates full function, 4 indicates moderate impairment, and 2 or less indicates severe functional impairment.

Timeframe: Hospital discharge (Within 1 day) and 4-weeks post-dischargeThe Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL) is an appropriate instrument to assess independent living skills. These skills are considered more complex than the basic activities of daily living as measured by the Katz Index of ADLs. The instrument is most useful for identifying how a person is functioning at the present time, and to identify improvement or deterioration over time. There are eight domains of function measured with the Lawton IADL scale. Women are scored on all 8 areas of function; historically, for men, the areas of food preparation, housekeeping, laundering have been excluded. Since men regularly complete food preparation, housekeeping, and laundering tasks, they were scored in all 8 domains as well. Clients are scored according to their highest level of functioning in that category. A summary score ranges from 0 (low function, dependent) to 8 (high function, independent) for women and men.

Timeframe: Hospital discharge (Within 1 day) and 4-weeks post-dischargePopulation: Due to our statistician retiring, we no longer have access to the computer program tied to the statistician. Without this program we are unable to transform responses into a 0-100 scale. An attempt was made to purchase the grading software, but cost was prohibitive, no funding was available to purchase the program. Unfortunately, there are no plans to acquire the license in the future as our institution has placed a hold on purchases due to budget cuts.
The Medical Outcomes Short Form 36 is a questionnaire that assesses self-reported health and physical functional status. There are 36 questions that reflect eight sub-domains of health included in this questionnaire. Scores for each domain represent weighted sums of the questions in each sub-domain. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. This measure represents the total computed score across all sub-domains. Lower scores represent worse overall health, while higher scores represent better health.

Timeframe: Hospital discharge (Within 1 day) and 4-weeks post-dischargePopulation: Due to our statistician retiring, we no longer have access to the computer program tied to the statistician. Without this program we are unable to transform responses into a 0-100 scale. An attempt was made to purchase the grading software, but cost was prohibitive, no funding was available to purchase the program. Unfortunately, there are no plans to acquire the license in the future as our institution has placed a hold on purchases due to budget cuts.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Hospital discharge (Within 1 day) and 4-weeks post-dischargePopulation: Due to our statistician retiring, we no longer have access to the computer program tied to the statistician. Without this program we are unable to transform responses into a 0-100 scale. An attempt was made to purchase the grading software, but cost was prohibitive, no funding was available to purchase the program. Unfortunately, there are no plans to acquire the license in the future as our institution has placed a hold on purchases due to budget cuts.
These questions are about how you feel and how things have been with you during the past 4weeks. For each question, please give the one answer that comes closest to the way you have been feeling. How much of the time during the past 4weeks... Responses to Q9b. Have you been a very nervous person?

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Hospital discharge (Within 1 day) and 4-weeks post-dischargePopulation: Due to our statistician retiring, we no longer have access to the computer program tied to the statistician. Without this program we are unable to transform responses into a 0-100 scale. An attempt was made to purchase the grading software, but cost was prohibitive, no funding was available to purchase the program. Unfortunately, there are no plans to acquire the license in the future as our institution has placed a hold on purchases due to budget cuts.
These questions are about how you feel and how things have been with you during the past 4weeks. For each question, please give the one answer that comes closest to the way you have been feeling. How much of the time during the past 4weeks... Responses to Q9j. During the past 4weeks, how much of the time has your physical health or emotional problems interfered with your social activities (like visiting with friends, relatives, etc.)?
