Early Pulmonary Rehabilitation in Exacerbated COPD Patients

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by chronic and progressive airflow limitations and subjects with COPD also experience exacerbations characterized by the worsening of respiratory symptoms. It's necessary medical intervention, changes in regular medication, and the use of antibiotics and/or corticosteroids followed or not by hospitalization. The exacerbations contribute to worsening of the disease with systemic impairment and muscle weakness is a very relevant event. The physical inactivity, especially related to bed rest, comprises one of the factors contributing to muscle atrophy and loss of muscle strength. Thus, the intervention performed during hospitalization is necessary to minimize the consequences which causes impairment in health status subjects. The aim of the study is assess the effect of the intervention with elastic bands, in muscle strength,level of the physical activity, functional capacity, dyspnea on activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life in COPD exacerbation subjects. Moreover,verify the intervention benefits over 01 and 03 months post exacerbation episode. It will be a prospective, randomized, longitudinal and interventional study. The investigators will be asses both gender patients with exacerbation of COPD in 4 situations: First time (at least 24 and at most 48 hours after the beginning of medical therapy); seven days post the first assessment; one and three months post exacerbation episode. It will be assess the muscle strength, physical activity level, functional capacity, dyspnea on ADL and quality of life. The patients will be randomized in 2 groups: intervention and control group. The intervention will be performed with elastic bands once a day during seven days. The investigators expected that patients of the intervention group will present better muscle strength, physical activity level and functional capacity than the control group. Furthermore, an improvement in dyspnea and quality of life is expected in intervention group when compared as with control group patients. It is hypothesized that the benefits of intervention will be maintained over one month.
