ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the application of 6MWT and handgrip strength test in the nursing evaluation of arterial stiffness in community-dwelling elderly.Methods:
From September 2019 to January 2020, 129 community-dwelling elderly people (age 60 years or older) were selected as the research subjects. Arterial stiffness was detected by pulse wave detector, and handgrip strength test and 6MWT were performed. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression methods were used to analyze the relationship between handgrip strength and 6MWT test indicators and aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV) and augmentation index75 (AIx75).Results:
The community-dwelling older people of aPWV was (10.50 ± 1.36) m/s and was negatively correlated with 6MWT distance and 6WMT work, of which the correlation coefficients were -0.404 and -0.285 respectively ( P<0.05). The community-dwelling older people of AIx75 was (28.51 ± 10.81) % and was negatively correlated with handgrip strength, relative grip strength, 6MWT distance and 6MWT work, of which the range of correlation coefficients were from -0.261 to -0.226 ( P<0.05). After adjusting for age, gender, and blood pressure, 6MWT distance and grip strength were independently related to aPWV and AIx75, respectively.Conclusions:
In community-dwelling elderly people, both the grip strength test and 6MWT can be used for nursing evaluation of early arterial stiffness, but the specific evaluation role is different.
