Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Outcome 1: Improvement of aerobic functional capacity, evaluated by six minute walk test, with inscrease of walked distância of 30 m regarding before intervetion. ;Outcome 2: Improvement inspiratory muscle strength, evaluated by manovacuometry, with increse of 30% of the maximum inspiratory pressure, regarding before intervention. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Outcome 1: Improvement of cardiac parasympathetic autonomic modulation, with increase of high frequency band >0.50 normalized units, evaluated by heart rate variability, regarding before intervention ;Outcome 2: Decrease of cardiac sympathetic autonomic modulation, with decrease of low frequency bandi <0.50 normalized units, evaluated by heart rate variability, regarding before intervention. | — |
