- Lead Sponsor
- Universidade Federal de Sao Carlos
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the hospitalized patients with increased waist circumference exhibit cardiorespiratory alterations after chest physical therapy.
- Detailed Description
The physiotherapist assessment will consist of anthropometry (body mass index, abdominal circumference, adipometer); chest inspection and palpation, vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory frequence, oxymetry), dyspnea index and capillar blood glucose; and later with pulmonary tests (thoracoabdominal perimetry, respiratory muscle strength and pulmonary volume and capacity). This will be a quasi-experimental study. Patients will be divided into four groups according to waist circumference (increased or not, with respect to cardiovascular risk) and respiratory disorders (obstructive and restrictive). After this assessment, chest physical therapy will begin according to the protocol for obstructive and restrictive respiratory disorders. The treatment will have an average duration of 30 minutes. At the end of treatment (single session) the patient will be assessed again after five and thirty minutes.

Group Intervention Description Obstructive increased AC Chest physiotherapy airway clearance modality Patient with obstructive respiratory disease with increased abdominal circumference. chest physiotherapy. Chest physiotherapy airway clearance modality. The protocol consisted of breathing exercises during 30 minutes and included: passive and localized exercises, deep diaphragmatic breathing and exercises on the chest wall (compression, vibration) and cough. Restrictive disfunction with normal AC Chest physiotherapy chest wall expansion Patients with restrictive respiratory disease with normal abdominal circumference. Chest physiotherapy chest wall expansion. The protocol consisted of breathing exercises during 30 minutes: passive and localized exercises, deep diaphragmatic breathing and exercises of chest wall expansion (decompression) and incentive spirometry.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change from baseline in spirometric measures. Baseline, five and thirty minutes. The spirometry is used to assess chest volume and capacity of individual patients respiratory disease and their response to therapy and is regarded as the gold standard measure of respiratory function. The following variables were recorded; forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume achieved in 1 second.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Comparison of pulse oxymetry before/after chest physiotherapy. Comparison of blood pressure before/after chest physiotherapy. Baseline, five and thirty minutes. The pulse oxymetry or pulse oximeter is used to measure peripheral oxygen saturation.
The arterial blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) will be measured by sphygmomanometer to follow the displacement.
