Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected from the improvement of functional capacity in patients with COPD, after eight weeks of periodized physical activity and vitamin B12 supplementation. For this purpose, will be examined through blood sample dosage of Vitamin B12 and through cardiopulmonary exercise testing constant load exercise time and the kinetic analysis during exercise. The variables are presented as mean and standard deviation and also confidence interval of 95%. In all cases a significance level of 5% will be adopted. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Once the physical capacity is considered an important marker in the development of COPD, multidimensional assessment, associating pulmonary variables and functional capacity, enables safe and effective interventions as well as more targeted pulmonary rehabilitation for this population, in addition to obtaining data that future may be taken into account in clinical variations important post-intervention measurements, when one takes into account many factors that affect exercise capacity. | — |
