Inclusion Criteria

Patients diagnosed with heart failure; ventricular ejection fraction less than 40 percent; aged greater than or equal to 18 years; hospitalized for decompensated heart failure and clinically stable without the need for continuous ventilatory support

Exclusion Criteria

Decompensated lung diseases, pregnancy, head trauma, brain injury, cognitive impairment, neuromuscular disorders, hemodynamic instability with high dose of inotropes or acute coronary syndrome, presence of physical limitation that limits the performance of assessments and those who do not agree to sign the term of free and informed consent.
