Resumen
El test de caminata de 6 minutos en pacientes con hipertensión pulmonar es de vital importancia en cuanto a tratamiento fisioterapéutico respiratorio con el fin de conocer y evaluar su capacidad funcional. OBJETIVO GENERAL: valorar la capacidad funcional mediante la distancia recorrida por medio del test de caminata de 6 minutos en pacientes con hipertensión pulmonar con un rango de edad de 30-70 años del Hospital IESS TEODORO MALDONADO CARBO en el área de Cardiología desde enero de 2019 a diciembre de 2019. METODOLOGIA: la presente investigación es de diseño cuantitativo no experimental con tipo de investigación observacional, retrospectivo y descriptivo. RESULTADOS Y CONCLUSIONES: en dicha entidad hospitalaria se evidenció una población de 25 pacientes, se obtiene una muestra de 16 pacientes en la cual su distancia recorrida fue superior a 300 metros siendo el minino para pacientes con patología de hipertensión pulmonar respondiendo favorablemente a los signos vitales post caminata de 6 minutos del minuto 3 en reposo; partir de esto podemos concluir que el test de caminata de 6 minutos es una herramienta útil para aquellos pacientes con diagnóstico de hipertensión pulmonar. RECOMENDACIÓN: se propone un plan que integre la valoración funcional a través del test de caminata de 6 minutos en el hospital IESS TEODORO MALDONADO CARBO en el área de cardiología.

The 6-minute walk test in patients with pulmonary hypertension is of vital importance in terms of respiratory physiotherapeutic treatment in order to know and evaluate their functional capacity. GENERAL OBJECTIVE: to assess functional capacity through the distance traveled by means of the 6-minute walk test in patients with pulmonary hypertension with an age range of 30-70 years at the IESS TEODORO MALDONADO CARBO Hospital in the Cardiology area since January 2019 as of December 2019. METHODOLOGY: this research is of a non-experimental quantitative design with an observational, retrospective and descriptive type of research. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: in this hospital entity a population of 25 patients was evidenced, is obtained a sample of 16 patients in which their distance traveled was greater than 300 meters, being the kitten for patients with pulmonary hypertension pathology responding favorably to the vital signs post walk 6 minutes from minute 3 at rest; From this we can conclude that the 6-minute walk test is a useful tool for those patients with a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension. RECOMMENDATION: a plan is proposed that integrates the functional assessment through the 6-minute walk test at the IESS TEODORO MALDONADO CARBO hospital in the cardiology área.
