A avaliação da dispneia tem sido feita por meio de instrumentos como escala de Borg modificada, a escala de cores e a escala do Medical Research Council modificada (mMRC). O objetivo deste estudo foi correlacionar a frequência respiratória com a sensação de dispneia, através das escalas citadas, correlacioná-las entre si e verificar se o grau de alfabetização influenciou na resposta do paciente sobre a sensação de dispneia. Para avaliar o esforço físico utilizou-se o teste de caminhada de seis minutos. Este foi um estudo prospectivo, transversal e analítico-descritivo composto por 124 voluntários com diagnóstico de doença pulmonar. Para comparar as variáveis categóricas entre os grupos foram utilizados os testes Qui-Quadrado e exato de Fisher. Para comparar as variáveis contínuas foi utilizado o teste Kruskal-Wallis e para análise de correlação foi utilizado o coeficiente de correlação de Spearman. A idade média foi de 55,9 (± 13,08 anos), 14% eram analfabetos. Nos tempos de análise houve correlação positiva entre as escalas mMRC e Borg, r = 0,43, r = 0,61 e r = 0,55. Entre as escalas mMRC e Cores, observou-se correlação negativa. Concluiu-se que a frequência respiratória correlacionou-se com as três escalas. O grau de alfabetização não modificou a resposta do paciente em relação à sensação de dispneia.Palavras-chave: dispneia, fisioterapia, avaliação.
