Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. To compare the accuracy of the master two step test against the six minute walk test (6MWT) in detecting exercise-induced oxygen desaturation in newly diagnosed RT-PCR positive COVID patients.Timepoint: baseline, within 1 hour (immediate after the test)—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To compare baseline, nadir and post test Sp02, heart rate, respiratory rate, Borg scale in both the stress tests. 2. To compare the requirements of hospitalisations, add on medication, investigations, hospital consultation and worsening or worsening on 14 day follow up period in both the stress tests Timepoint: Baseline, within 1 hours (immediately after after test). Telephonic follow up to 14 days—
