    The purpose of this study was to: evaluate respiratory muscle strength and endurance in patients recently suffering myocardial infarction (MI) at inpatient period and investigate the effects of a home-based walking program on respiratory strength and endurance in post-MI patients with low risk. Methods: Patients were randomized into: Usual Care Group (UCG) entailing regular care (n=23); and Intervention group (IG) entailing an outpatient home-based walking program (n=31). Healthy subjects gender and age-matched served as a control group for respiratory endurance variables. Respiratory muscle strength was evaluated through maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and endurance during the inpatient period, 15-days and 60-days after MI. Submaximal functional capacity was determined by 6-minute walk test (6MWT) at hospital discharge and 60 days after MI. Results: Both groups showed impaired inspiratory muscle strength at hospital discharge. When compared with healthy subjects, post MI patients had worse respiratory muscle endurance pressure (PTHMAX= 73.02 ±8.40 vs 44.47±16.32, p<0.05) and time (Tlim= 324.1±12.2 vs 58.7±93.3, p<0.05). Only the IG showed a significant improvement in MIP and PTHMAX in 15 days and 60 days after MI (p<0.05). When comparing groups, the IG achieved higher values for MIP, PTHMAX and Tlim 15 and 60 days after MI (p<0.01). The 60-day assessment revealed that the 6MWT distance and level of physical activity was significantly higher in the IG compared to the UCG. Conclusion: Low riskxii patients recently suffering a MI demonstrate impaired MIP and respiratory endurance compared to healthy subjects. A home-based walking program improved respiratory endurance and functional capacity.
