The purpose of this study was to investigate the necessity of self-questionnaire evaluation by presenting the relationship between Korean version of Activity Scale/Index (KASI), Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ), and aerobic exercise capacity in patients with heart failure. A retrospective study was conducted by analyzing the results of 58 patients (41 men and 17 women) diagnosed with heart failure, and each subject safely finished cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). Measures included MLHFQ, KASI, and peak VO2. The aerobic exercise ability was significantly correlated with between self-activity scale (r=.529, p<.001) and health-related quality of life (r=.-350, p=.025) in men. In women, a correlation between aerobic exercise capacity and self-activity scale (r=505, p=.039) was found; however, no correlation with health-related quality of life (r=.158, p=.546) was found. This results suggest that the level of self-functional status and health-related quality of life is related to the aerobic exercise ability. Further studies should focus on interventions for improving the level of self-reported activity and quality of life in people with heart failure.
