Objective: Identify physical activity levels and functional capacity in cardiovascular patients attending cardiovascular rehabilitation at an IPS in Cartagena. Research methodology: Descriptive-transverse study with quantitative focus. The research was carried out with 63 patients from an IPS focused on cardiopulmonary rehabilitation of the city of Cartagena, the six-minute walk was used to assess functional capacity; the short IPAQ format for setting Physical Activity levels.
