Abstract:

 Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the reference values of the 6 Minute Pegboard and Ring Test 6PBRT unsupported arm function exercise test in young and middle-aged healthy adults in Turkey and to correlate the results with arm length, dominant side arm and forearm circumference and physical activity level. Methods: Arm length, arm and forearm circumference, unsupported arm exercise capacity, physical activity level were evaluated. Results: A total of 132 participants mean age 33.59  11.65 years, 88 women and 44 men, participated in the study. There were moderate, oppositeand significant r-0.402; p0.001, weakly oppositeand significant r-0.195; p0.025, weakly opposite and significant r-0.205; p0.018, weakly and significant r0.312; p0.001, and moderately significant r0.552; p0.001 associations between number of rings and age, weight, maximum activity score MAS, and adjusted activity score AAS. When the whole model was evaluated separately by gender and in general; the effective variables on the number of rings for female were age B-1.063; t-2.794;p0.007 and AAS B0.591; t3.993; p0.001.Variables affecting the number of rings for male; Dyspnea difference B-11,537; t-4.135; p0.001 and MAS B1.740; t3.773; p0.001.Variables affecting the number of rings regardless of gender are age B-0.987; t-3.743; p0.001 and HAPaas B0.649; t6.515; p0.001. Conclusion: In this study, reference values for 6PBRT were determined in healthy young and middle-aged adults in Turkey. It was found that there was a correlation between 6PBRT results and age, weight, BMI and physical activity level.
