Popis: | Background: Non-supervised ground walking has been recommended for patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD). However, the magnitude of the effort required by this activity and the characteristics of patients whose ground walking is more intense are unclear. Objectives: To determine whether ground walking exceeds the ventilatory threshold (VT), a recognized marker of exercise intensity, in patients with symptomatic PAD. Methods: Seventy patients (61.4% male and aged 40 to 85 years old) with symptomatic PAD were recruited. Patients performed a graded treadmill test for VT determination. Then, they were submitted to a 6-minute walk test so the achievement of VT during ground ambulation could be identified. Multiple logistic regression was conducted to identify predictors of VT achievement during the 6-minute walk test. The significance level was set at p < 0.05 for all analyses. Results: Sixty percent of patients achieved VT during the 6-minute walk test. Women (OR = 0.18 and 95%CI = 0.05 to 0.64) and patients with higher cardiorespiratory fitness (OR = 0.56 and 95%CI = 0.40 to 0.77) were less likely to achieve VT during ground walking compared to men and patients with lower cardiorespiratory fitness, respectively. Conclusion: More than half of patients with symptomatic PAD achieved VT during the 6-minute walk test. Women and patients with higher cardiorespiratory fitness are less likely to achieve VT during the 6-minute walk test, which indicates that ground walking may be more intense for this group. This should be considered when prescribing ground walking exercise for these patients. Resumo Fundamento: a caminhada não supervisionada em solo tem sido indicada para pacientes com doença arterial periférica (DAP) sintomática. No entanto, a magnitude do esforço exigido por essa atividade e as características dos pacientes que a praticam com mais intensidade não estão claras. Objetivos: determinar se a caminhada em solo excede o limiar ventilatório (LV), um reconhecido marcador de intensidade de exercício, em pacientes com DAP sintomática. Métodos: Foram recrutados 70 pacientes (61,4% do sexo masculino e com idade entre 40 e 85 anos) com DAP sintomática. Os pacientes realizaram um teste ergométrico em esteira para definir o LV. Em seguida, foram submetidos ao teste de caminhada de 6 minutos para determinar o alcance do LV durante deambulação no solo. Realizou-se regressão logística múltipla para identificar preditores de LV durante o teste de caminhada de 6 minutos, e o valor de p |
