ABSTRACT Background: Abdominal disorders can alter respiratory function and increase the morbidity and mortality of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Aim: To improve the physiotherapeutic and muscular capacity in chronic obstructive pulmonary muscular inspiration in the preoperative ...
Introduction: Postoperative radiotherapy is widely used to reduce risks of locoregional recurrence of breast cancer. However, the radiation of the thoracic structures involves risks, especially to the lungs. Objective: To study the Maximal Respiratory Pressures (MRP) after exposure to breast radiotherapy...
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the impact of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on the quality of life, immune response, inspiratory and lower limb muscle strength of older adults. Method: A randomized clinical trial was conducted with 30 institutionalized older adults. They were allocated into two gro...
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the impact of thoracic radiotherapy on respiratory function and exercise capacity in patients with breast cancer. Methods: Breast cancer patients in whom thoracic radiotherapy was indicated after surgical treatment and chemotherapy were submitted to HRCT, respiratory eva...

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate lung function and inspiratory muscle strength, correlating them with exercise tolerance, in obese individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Methods: The sample comprised 31 adult subjects with moderate-to-severe OSAS diagnosed by polysomnography. We used ...
RESUMO Objetivo: Apesar da alta prevalência de cardiopatia reumática no nosso país, a ocorrência de prejuízos funcionais em crianças e adolescentes com cardiopatia reumática não está esclarecida. Este estudo visou avaliar tolerância ao exercício, força muscular respiratória, função pulmo...
Abstract With aging, the respiratory muscle strength decreases and the Pilates method is a technique that uses respiration as one of its principles. The present study has the aim of analyzing the influence of the Pilates method on respiratory muscle strength in older women. For the evaluation of respirat...
