Sponsor's own description
The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of using the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) as a cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) screening tool. The screening would take place when the patient attends the hospital for their initial surgical outpatient appointment. By screening all potential major intra-abdominal surgery patients for a period of 6 months and recording the distance walked in the 6 minutes (6MWD) the aim is to produce a threshold distance for the patients of Sheffield that would identify those with sufficient CRF what would allow them to proceed to surgery without further investigations or fitness interventions. Having identified the fit it would allow the perioperative team to focus resources on the less fit with the aim of improving CRF and other elements that would lead to reduced postoperative morbidity and mortality. Other primary aims include noting the time to surgery. This data will inform on wither instigation of the early screening test would facilitate enrolment and completion of an exercise programme before surgery. The secondary aim is to assess the relationship between the 6MWD and routine CPET to confirm if those that walk the furthest are in fact the fittest.
