Virtual reality could make the 6-Minute walk test more accurate
NCT ID NCT07601009
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a mixed reality version of the 6-minute walk test, done with a Meta Quest 3 headset, is as good as the traditional paper-and-stopwatch version. Researchers will compare walking distance, fatigue, and other measures in 200 healthy adults aged 18 to 65. If it works, this digital approach could make the test more consistent and eventually allow remote monitoring of patients.
