Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Increased inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength, analyzed by means of an analog manovacuometer, from the observation of a variation of at least 5% in the pre- and post-intervention measurements;We verified increased inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength after the intervention period. On the other hand, the control group did not present alteration in these variables

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Increased quality of life, verified through the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39). Reduction of anxiety levels, verified through the Beck Anxiety Inventory. Reduction of Depression symptoms, assessed from the Hamilton Depression Scale. Decreased motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease measured from the Unified Scale of Assessment of Patients with Parkinson's Disease (UPDRS). For all data, a variation of at least 5% in the pre- and post-intervention measurements;We found an increase in quality of life, a decrease in anxiety and depression levels, and an improvement in the motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease
