Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) Level

    The measurement of exhaled FeNO level is performed by several commercially available devices, however the equipment NIOX ® (Aerocrine, Sweden) analyzer is the only FDA-approved and Anvisa (Food and Drug Administration) for clinical monitoring of asthma. The measure will be performed before and after the training program of exercise, or pulmonary rehabilitation, by means of portable equipment NIOX MINO ®.

    The FeNO level was performed in week 8

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Treadmil Test (Bruce Protocol)

    8 week distance walked on treadmill test

  • Body Composition

    baseline and after 8 weeks

  • Pulmonary Function

    baseline and after 8 weeks

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ6) - Clinical Control of Disease

    clinical control week 8

  • Energy Expenditure

    baseline and during all training sessions 8 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Aerobic exercise

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The aerobic training will be done on the treadmill with heart monitors with intensity required to achieve 70% of maximum heart rate reached the maximum test for thirty minutes.

Other: Aerobic exercise group

Video game

EXPERIMENTAL

The training with video game will be done with heart rate monitors with intensity required to achieve 70% of maximum heart rate reached the maximum test for thirty minutes.Will be used Kinect games ( reflex ridge- Adventure).

Other: Video game group

Interventions

The training with video game will be done with heart rate monitors with intensity required to achieve 70% of maximum heart rate reached the maximum test for thirty minutes.Will be used Kinect games ( adventure- reflex ridge).

Video game

A 10 minutes warm up period was performed on a treadmill at 2 km/h prior to each session. After that, exercise training was performed during 30 minutes beginning at 70% of the maximum effort determined in the maximal exercise testing. Before and after each session, 3 measures of the peak flow were performed in the standing position (AssessTM, USA). There was progression in the training intensity throughout the study: if the patient maintained 2 consecutive exercise sessions without symptoms, exercise intensity was increased by 5% of cardiac frequency by using either treadmill speed or grade as previously described (Mendes et al.2011).
