Brief Summary
The Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) has shown a progressive increase of morbidity and mortality, suggesting that the lung as a single therapeutic target, has not contributed in the past 20 years, significant changes to the natural evolution of the disease. Direct treatment for systemic changes and comorbidities, in fact, the most responsible for high rates of treatment failure could mean a new hope of life for individuals with COPD. This research project characterized as interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary program will be headquartered in Pulmonary Rehabilitation of the Santa Cruz Hospital which has partnerships with local companies . Its main objective will be to analyze cardiorespiratory and functional capacity in COPD patients not rehabilitated and rehabilitated after the period from 02 to 12 months of treatment in a Pulmonary Rehabilitation program in the municipality of Santa Cruz do Sul - Rio Grande do Sul. Will be included in this survey of COPD patients who were referred to a rehabilitation program with a clinical diagnosis of disease. In research activities to assess cardiorespiratory and functional capacity of COPD, pre and post-program (02 and 12 months) are provided for Pulmonary Rehabilitation. The research subjects will also be subjected to physical exercise protocol as recommended by the GOLD (2009), a period of eight weeks, often 2x / week, where their vital signs are measured before, during and after each session. Thus, it is believed that it will be possible to refine the knowledge of mechanisms by which the judicious use of pulmonary rehabilitation can control the progression of COPD.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Functional capacity in COPD patients
Will initially be evaluated after ten months.
Secondary Outcomes (12)
Ankle brachial index
Will be assessed after the admission of patients to pulmonary rehabilitation program. will be held after admission, subsequently after two and ten months
Window in ischemic lower limbs
will be evaluated after functional testing submaximal. will be held after admission, subsequently after two and ten months
walk test six minutes
will be conducted to evaluate rates of ischemic window by ankle brachial index, will be held after admission, subsequently after two and ten months
heart rate variability
will be held Durantes three tests: Shuttle Walk Test, test and six-minute walk incremental protocol in cycle rgometer. will be held after admission, subsequently after two and ten months
Shuttle Walk Test
Will be conducted to evaluate the functional capacity of the study participants. will be held after admission, subsequently after two and ten months
- +7 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (3)
Group phase 1
PLACEBO COMPARATORTwo months of education and self-management for COPD where patients know their disease, pathophysiology, treatment, exacerbation of symptoms, and better ways pharmacological treatment education will be conducted through a system of multidisciplinary lessons with professional Physiotherapists, Psychologists, Dieticians, Pharmacists , Physical Education Professionals and Doctors
Group phase 2
EXPERIMENTALPulmonary rehabilitation for two months: The same patients enter phase 1 phase 2 performing this two months of pulmonary rehabilitation are also included new patients who participate directly in phase 2
Group phase 3
EXPERIMENTALPulmonary rehabilitation for ten months: Participate participants of phases 1 + 2 and 2, as well as new participants enter directly in phase 3
Interventions
Exercises breathing exercises are performed on a cycle ergometer for 30 minutes, monitored by 50% of your maximum heart frequency, strengthening exercises for major muscle groups of the upper and lower limbs with charges based on 70% of one repetition maximum, muscle stretching test, and in expiratory pattern
Two months of continuous and self management for COPD where patients know their disease, pathophysiology, treatment, exacerbation of symptoms, and better ways pharmacological treatment education will be conducted through a system of multidisciplinary lessons with professional Physiotherapists, Psychologists, Dieticians, Pharmacists , Physical Education Professionals and Doctors
