NCT02783326

Brief Summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition in which the lung is in chronic state due to an inflammatory response that leads to limitation in lung function of the individual, providing symptoms such as dyspnea, nutritional changes, decreased strength respiratory muscle, low capacity to exercise, dynamic insufflation and altered autonomic function with decreased heart rate variability. Have objective to evaluate and compare the effects of a rehabilitation protocol on autonomic modulation of heart rate. Participate in the study, 10 volunteers with COPD and 10 apparently healthy individuals, of both sexes, between 50 and 70 years old. Data collection and application of the Protocol will take place at the Clinical School of Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy at the University of the Amazon (UNAMA). Between January and February 2015.
