Cardiorespiratory disorders, including cardiovascular and respiratory conditions, are significant global health issues, with millions of deaths annually attributed to these causes. Environmental factors play a substantial role in increasing the risk of these diseases. Children and adolescents with low cardiorespiratory fitness are at a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases later in life, and their fitness levels tend to remain low over the years. The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) is commonly used to assess exercise tolerance in patients with chronic lung diseases and cardiac conditions, while the 1-minute sit-to-stand test (1STS) measures a participant's ability to perform daily activities. This brief review was conducted on databases from Pubmed, Google scholar and Research Gate to find out the correlation between 1-min-sit-to-stand test and 6-min walk test in patients with cardiorespiratory disorders. This review included 10 studies on the comparison between 1-min-sit-to-stand and 6-min walk test in patients with cardiorespiratory disorders so as to frame a definite conclusion as to whether 1STST can be a valid alternative to 6MWT in the cardiorespiratory disorders.
