ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the correlation between aerobic exercise intensity based on the 6min walk test (6MWT) and the anaerobic threshold (AT)-based equivalent in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Thus, the 6MWT is a feasible tool for developing exercise prescriptions in primary care hospitals.
