Do cardiovascular and dyspnea response to six-minute and shuttle walk tests in COPD patients?
The cardiovascular and dyspnea response caused by ISWT is greater (but statistically not significant) than that generated by 6MWT. The more limited the functional capacity of COPD patients the more similar the response generated by 6MWT and ISWT.
These results suggest that prostate volume has little effect on the efficacy and safety of GreenLight HPS laser PVP, and that this technique remains a viable surgical option for BPH, irrespective of preoperative prostate volume.
