520 $a People with congestive heart failure (HF) frequently suffer from dyspnea. Transplantation offers a treatment for heart failure. To investigate the role of the respiratory muscles in dyspnea, respiratory muscle strength (P $\ sb{\rm I} $m ax, P $\ sb{\rm E} $m ax), maximal exercise capacity (peak VO $\ sb2 $) , six-minute walk test (6-MWT) performance, quadriceps strength, and quality of life (QOL) were evaluated in subjects with severe HF (n = 15) and post heart transplantation (TX, n = 16). Peak VO $\ sb2, $ 6-MWT distance, and QOL were all significantly higher in the TX group. There was no significant difference between the groups for either P $\ sb{\rm I} $m ax (HF:113% predicted vs TX:103% predicted) or P $\ sb{\rm E} $m ax (HF:90% predicted vs TX:94% predicted). No significant correlations were detected between the outcome measures and P $\ sb{\rm I} $m ax or P $\ sb{\rm E} $m ax. These results suggest that while heart transplantation is associated with improved exercise capacity, functional mobility, and quality of life, respiratory muscle strength remains unchanged, and thus may not be a mechanism for dyspnea in HF.
