Σύνοψη	The Ten-Meter Walk Test (10MWT) is a straightforward performance assessment measuring gait speed over a 10-meter distance. Used extensively in neurological rehabilitation, the 10MWT provides objective data on walking velocity, a key indicator of functional mobility, recovery after stroke, and response to intervention in individuals with gait impairments from various causes.	The Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) is a submaximal exercise assessment measuring the total distance a person can walk in six minutes at a self-selected pace. Developed by Guyatt and colleagues in 1985, the 6MWT has become the standard submaximal functional exercise test for patients with cardiopulmonary disease, quantifying exercise tolerance and predicting outcomes in conditions ranging from chronic heart failure to pulmonary hypertension to neuromuscular disorders.
