NCT02657109

Brief Summary

4 consecutive days with volunteers between the first and fourth postoperative period of cardiac valve replacement. The volunteers are randomized into 2 groups: the Control Group submitted to cardiac rehabilitation protocol of the hospital where it will be conducted the study, which consists of respiratory and metabolic exercises. The second group, called Early Mobilization Group in addition to the aforementioned exercises will be added exercise in cycle ergometer. For the implementation of rehabilitation protocol in the early mobilization group volunteers will be placed in a sitting position in the bed with the backrest raised to 45 °. The exercise in cycle ergometer will be held for 20 minutes on four consecutive days of active mode, the training load shall be such that the voluntary maintained throughout training a level of fatigue, maintaining level of heart rate predicted for age increased by 70% and 1 w / cm2 every minute to keep the parameter within the standards. The evaluation of heart rate variability with the Polar monitor RS800CX brand model before surgery was performed first postoperative day and fifth postoperative day in the control groups and early mobilization.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Heart Rate Variability

    It will be analyzed the uptake of heart rate variability by means of the heart rate monitor Polar ® brand, model RS800CX where FC signal is received by a strap to the signal receiver, to be placed on the thorax at the level of voluntary xiphoid process. This capture is stored in the Polar monitor and transferred to the software Polar ProTrainer program by means of an emission of infrared signals interface, where they are stored and subsequently exported to TXT format, which subsequently can be analyzed by a math routine in Kubios HRV® program. Volunteers will be asked to remain at rest for a period of 10 min, avoiding talking to the researcher so that the heart rate does not undergo changes.

    one hour

  • Oxidative stress

    Morphological evaluation of oxidative stress in the blood plasma is performed by the so called Optical Microscopy Test for In Vitro Analysis Cell or HLB Test. The fingertip of the fourth finger of the previously sanitized hand with alcohol, will collect a drop of blood next to a microscope slide through five light touch of this blade next to the drop . At the end of this period, the morphology of this clot is microscopically observed under a 40-fold increase in optical microscope brand Nikon® model Binocular E200 Standard and its qualitative graduation will be recorded by the camera attached Nikon® mark on a spreadsheet to later analysis. The observation of morphological patterns of the different obtained clots will be held in the first image taken on each of the blades and the evaluation will be conducted through the program called OxyScanner® developed and marketed by Aldea Global Soluciones (AGS).

Study Arms (2)

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants are submitted to cardiac rehabilitation protocol of the hospital where it will be conducted the study, which consists in respiratory exercises of 3 series Inspirations Maximum Sustained for 10 reps, 3 sets of 20 repetitions metabolic exercises with dorsiflexion and plantar flexion and ankle and wrist extension and fingers of the upper limbs. Assessment of heart rate varibility and oxidative stress carried out before the heart valve replacement surgery , the first day of postoperative and on the fifth postoperative day

Other: physical therapy procedure

Early mobilization

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants performed exercise in cycle ergometer of lower Limbs, pedaling for 20 consecutive minutes at a moderate level with Heart Rate Assessment and the Borg scale to evaluate the Voluntary Comfort. Assessment of heart rate varibility and oxidative stress carried out before the heart valve replacement surgery , the first day of oepratório post and on the fifth postoperative day

Other: physical therapy procedure

Interventions

physiotherapy exercises conducted in early way for the rehabilitation of patients in the postoperative period of cardiac valve replacement.

Also known as: early mobilization
ControlEarly mobilization
