Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: Public hospital(s). Main funding source(s): Centro Hospitalar Universitário Lisboa Central Methods We studied 30 patients (P) with ejection fraction (EF) 40-50%, in a number of 198 P that participated in cardiac rehabilitation program (CRP). Of these P, 24 (80%) male and 6 (20%) female, 20 P were diagnosed myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation, 2 P myocardial infarction non ST and 8 P with myocardial hypertrophy non ischemic. Of these P 30% were diabetics, 56% hypertension, 70% dyslipidemia, 36% smokers previous to CRP and body mass index 26,3 medium. All P were submitted to previous echocardiogram, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CET) and a rehabilitation program minimum 4 sessions and maximum 52 sessions. At the end of the total sessions the echocardiogram and CET were repeated. Results Of the 30 P that participated in CRP only 20 completed the program, while the other 10 P dropped out because of social and economic problems. Of the P that completed the CRP, 70% got better on EF, 80% improved VE/VCO2 slope < 33 therefore are classified VC-II in ventilatory classification (VC), 5% VE/VCO2 slope > 40  VC-III classification, and 15% maintained the initial classification.  50% of the P increased at least one level metabolic equivalent of task (MET) from the first CET. Only 3 of the 20 patients came, once, to the hospital after the CRP with heart failure, and one died but did not fulfill the program. Conclusion Patients with mid-range heart failure submitted to a CRP can improve cardiorespiratory predictors, leading to a better quality of life. However, it is important to find solutions to minimize the causes that make patients to give up CRP.

Abstract Heart failure is a major cause of morbidity, mortality and re-hospitalizations and is highly prevalent in myocardial infarction survivors. Cardiac rehabilitation based on exercise training and heart failure self-care counseling have each been shown to improve clinical status and clinical outcomes. We designed our study with aim to evaluate the usefulness of exercise based in house cardiac rehabilitation/ secondary prevention program in patients with heart failure with mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) after myocardial infarction. Patients and methods Out of 2753 patients who were admitted to our three weeks in- hospital secondary prevention program – exercised based cardiac rehabilitation, we analyze a total of 219 patients who were admitted early after coronary revascularization (percutaneus coronary interventions or coronary bypass surgery) with HFmrEF. The majority of patients were males (68%). Risk factors and co morbidities were noted. Patients were selected for exercise training after six minute walking test or exercise stress test (cardiopulmonary dominantly to evaluate unexpected exertional dyspnea). After 3 weeks in house cardiac rehabilitation the patients were re-tested. Results The major comorbidities in our patient population were as follows: hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia. Six minutes walking test was performed and the total distance walked ranged from 120 to 480 meters and the beginning of the program. Patient had 7 -days a week training program. After the 3 weeks in hospital exercise rehabilitation the improvement in the test was ∼32%. Cardiopulmonary test showed also improvement of functional capacity.We noted several rhythm disturbance complications by telemetry (VES, SVES). None had acutisation of heart failure (with peripheral edema and congestion). All patients fulfilled cardiac rehabilitation program. Conclusions Supervised multidisciplinary cardiac rehabilitation program, including an individualized exercise component is effective and can improve functional status and exercise tolerance in patient with HFmrEF after myocardial infarction.
