Abstract
PURPOSE: Tests for quantifying exercise capacity that are applicable in diverse settings are needed. The 1-min sit-to-stand test (1-MSTST) is such a test. This systematic review summarizes the literature addressing 1-MSTST procedures, performance, and clinimetric properties. METHODS: Three online databases, hand searches, and an expert consultant were used to identify literature relevant to the aims of this review. Inclusion required that studies addressed the 1-MSTST, focused on adults, and were written in English. RESULTS: Seventeen articles were identified that met the inclusion criteria. The populations assessed included adults without identified pathologies and adults with lung disease, renal disease, stroke, osteoporosis, or receiving palliative care. The 1-MSTST typically involves an armless chair and the performance of as many sit-to-stand actions as possible in 1 min without using the upper limbs. The mean number of 1-MSTST repetitions reported in the literature achieved ranged from 8.1 (patients with stroke) to 50.0 (young men). Numerous studies supported the convergent and known-groups validity and the test-retest reliability of the test. The test has been shown to be responsive. Normative reference values are available. CONCLUSIONS: The literature provides considerable support for using the 1-MSTST to quantify exercise capacity. Broader use of this test may be indicated, particularly where space and time are limited.
