Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
It is expected that the volunteer submitted to the intervention, when compared to the control group, will present better functional performance and alteration in the values ??of the cardio-respiratory physiological variables evaluated through the Global Perception of Change Scale (PGIS) with a score of 7 (much better), Measure of Independence Functional (MIF) with a score of 1 (incomplete independence), 2-minute walk test with increased distance walked, improvement in respiratory rate, Borg scale, heart rate, pulse oximetry and systemic blood pressure.
