Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The expected outcome is improved neural control of cardiac function with increased heart rate variability. It was verified by performing the 12-lead electrocardiogram for 10 minutes at rest and measured by index calculation based on statistical operations of the R-R intervals (time domain) and by the spectral analysis of ordered R-R intervals (frequency domain). Comparing the pre-intervention evaluation and after 12 weeks of intervention.;It is also expected as a primary outcome, to verify an improvement in the functional capacity of the chronic renal hemodialytic patient,<br>measured by the 6-minute walk test, aiming to increase the distance covered in the pre-determined time. This will be done in a flat corridor at least 20 meters long, for a period of 6 minutes, where the total distance traveled in meters will be used as the evaluation score.<br>Comparing the pre-intervention evaluation and after 12 weeks of intervention.
