ABSTRACT
There is no consensus on clinical outcome measures that reflect function, activities and participation which are suitable for adults with mitochondrial diseases (MD). The aim of this study was to determine feasible and clinically relevant outcome measures for patients with MD . In 156 adult patients with MD, endurance, balance, strength and mobility tests were evaluated. All tests showed a negative deviation to healthy reference values. Balance tests were feasible and significantly correlated with clinical severity. The Åstrand cycle test was not feasible in 55%, whereas the feasibility of the 6 min walking test is unclear in patients with MD.
