Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find a reduction in anthropometric parameters, such as body mass index and waist circumference. Data collected at the beginning of the intervention and after 20 consultations after the intervention;It is expected to find an increase in heart rate variability, assessed by a heart rate monitor. Data collected at baseline (before and after the first intervention), at the 10th appointment (before and after the 10th intervention) and at the 20th appointment (before and after the 20th intervention);It is expected to increase functional capacity parameters, assessed through the six-minute walk test and cardiopulmonary test. Data collected at baseline, after 10 consultations and after 20 consultations | — |
