Overview

Assessment demonstrates reliability of the 2-minute marching test in youth post-COVID-19, suggesting its clinical applicability.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the reliability and minimal detectable change of the 2-minute marching test in youth recovering from post-COVID-19 condition.
  • Conducted two assessment sessions with 44 youth experiencing post-COVID-19 condition.
  • Utilized both the 6-minute walk test and the 2-minute marching test to measure cardiorespiratory responses.
  • Analyzed test-retest reliability of the tests over five days.
  • Excellent reliability for the 6-minute walk test (ICC = 0.83; MDC95 = 8.06%).
  • Good reliability for the 2-minute marching test (ICC = 0.78; MDC95 = 15.61%).
  • Clinically meaningful MDC values help distinguish true changes from measurement error.
