Brief Summary

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the Airways of recurring character. The obstruction to the airflow carries the short-and long-term consequences that require prophylactic interventions and in emergency many times. The children due to immaturity of the respiratory system associated with the use of steroids suffer structural consequences, as for example, the physical deconditioning that intensifies the symptoms of the disease and affects negatively on the quality of life. Therefore, to set up a physical training program suitable for the paediatric population, using resources to increase adherence to the regular practice of exercises, can be the difference for the reduction of the number of exacerbations, the sensation of Dyspnea and the doses of medication, positively impacting the clinical picture of child asthmatic. The investigators conducted a randomized, blinded in order to evaluate the effects of training with active video game associated with resisted exercise the exercise in inflammatory and functional outcomes resisted in asthmatic children.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Measurement of the Fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO)

  The fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) has been a feature used to complement the diagnosis of asthma in children and adults, in children are considered within normal values values up to 20 parts per billion (ppb). Patients with respiratory symptoms associated with FENO of 20ppb, which suggests the inflammation of the airways, may represent greater succession of seizures and non-control of the disease. The Fraction of exhaled nitric oxide will be measured by following the criteria of ATS, in the Mino NIOX ® equipment (Aerocrine). The evaluation of this variable will be performed prior to the therapeutic intervention and after 8 weeks in order to observe the level of airway inflammation after physical activity. An evaluation of this variable after 8 weeks of intervention aims to observe the level of inflammation of the airway and a physical activity.

  Change of Fraction of exhaled nitric oxide in 8 weeks at physical activity

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Measuring energy expenditure

  Change in ability to exercise 8 weeks of physical activity

Study Arms (2)

Video training Game

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients were submitted prior to the treadmill warming the 2kmh during 1° minutes before each session. Then held 30 minutes of aerobic interval training with video game (10 rounds of 3 minutes with 30 seconds of rest between each), followed by 5 minutes of cool-down again on the mat. The game used for training was the "reflex Ridge" Kinect Adventure (Xbox-360). At a higher level, it is necessary for the child to perform a greater number of jumps, squats, lateral movements and arm movements. All the activity was monitored against FC and SpO2. To determine the intensity of physical activity energy expenditure assessments were made. In which four are for the pre and post intervention evaluation and sixteen training sessions.

Other: Training

Endurance muscle training

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients were submitted prior to the treadmill warming the 2kmh during 1° minutes before each session. Then held 30 minutes of aerobic interval training with video game (10 rounds of 3 minutes with 30 seconds of rest between each) followed by 5 minutes of cool-down again on the mat.Then the children were subjected to low intensity to endurance muscle training with 3 sets of 15 repetitions to upper limbs diagonally primitive and flexion and extension to lower lumbs. All the activity was monitored against FC and SpO2.To determine the intensity of physical activity energy expenditure assessments were made. In which four are for the pre and post intervention evaluation and sixteen training sessions.
