Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Length of ICU stay, it will be observed the average time of hospitalization in the cardio-intensive unit. It is expected that the intervention group will reduce the time spent in intensive care. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Functionality will be assessed through the Functional Status Scale in the ICU and expected to improve the functionality in both groups after participating in the project. Scale will be applied at the start of the study and on the day of discharge from the ICU. quality of life, will be evaluated by the Minessota Living with heart failure questionnaire and it is expected that all patients will have a better quality of life after the intervention. Scale will be applied at the start of the study and on the day of discharge from the ICU. Peripheral muscle strength will be assessed by manual force score and by manual dimmometry, and it is expected that all patients will have improved after the intervention. It will be performed at the beginning of the study and on the day of discharge from the ICU. respiratory muscle strength, evaluated by the analogue manovacuometer, and it is expected that the patients who have performed the intervention have improved more in relation to the beginning of the study. It will be done at the beginning of the study and on the day of discharge from the ICU. | — |
