Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Trained Group
This group will receive the usual care of the hospital and a ground walking training program associated with respiratory exercises.
Ground Walking Program
The patients will walk on a corridor, for 40min, once a day. The speed will be controlled through a metronome, that will be programed to a frequency of steps/min determinated as 80% of the mean frequency of steps performed in six minutes walk test of that day. The 40min will be divided in 3min of walk and 2min of rest, totalizing 24min of exercise and 16min of rest. Furthermore, these patients, in sitting position, will receive orientation to do calm and slow inspirations and expirations, associated with pursed lips expiration. They will try to maintain its Respiratory Rate in 6bpm, during four minutes.
Usual Care Group
This group will only receive the usual care of the hospital, including physical therapy
No interventions assigned to this group
