Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Male and female gender; be over 18 years old; having stage B2 and C chagasic heart disease; be in regular follow-up at the Chagas disease outpatient clinic of the Evandro Chagas National Institute of Infectious Diseases (INI).

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Clinically decompensated individuals; who have chronic lung disease; who have atrial fibrillation; pacemaker carriers; who present some clinical limitation that contraindicates the performance of the proposed exercise protocol; pregnant women.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
A greater reduction in systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure, as measured by plethysmography, is expected immediately after and within 60 minutes after the respiratory muscle training maneuver comparing the difference between the strength protocol group to the the endurance protocol group.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
A greater increase in heart rate, as measured using a cardiofrequencimeter, is expected immediately after and within 60 minutes after the respiratory muscle training maneuver comparing the difference between the strength protocol group to the the endurance protocol group.;A greater increase in myocardial work, stimated by doble-product (measured by the multiplication of systolic blood pressure by heart rate), is expected immediately after and within 60 minutes after the respiratory muscle training maneuver comparing the difference between the strength protocol group to the the endurance protocol group.
