Six minute walk test may be an alternative to CPET testing if required. "Patients walking >563 m in the 6MWT do not routinely require CPET; those walking <427 m should be referred for further evaluation. In situations of ‘clinical uncertainty’ (?427 but ?563 m), the number of clinical risk factors and magnitude of surgery should be incorporated into the decision-making process. The 6MWT is a useful clinical tool to screen and risk stratify patients in departments where CPET is unavailable." refl.in/kq
