NCT ID NCT05630092
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 93 people with lung disease who get short of breath when active. Participants did two 6-minute walk tests: one at their fastest pace and one at their normal walking speed. The goal was to see if the normal-speed test gives a more accurate picture of when they need extra oxygen during daily activities.
