Patients with restrictive respiratory disease with increased abdominal circumference. chest physiotherapy chest wall expansion. The protocol consisted of breathing exercises during 30 minutes: passive and localized exercises, deep diaphragmatic breathing and exercises of chest wall expansion (decompression) and incentive spirometry.

Patients with restrictive respiratory disease with normal abdominal circumference. Chest physiotherapy chest wall expansion. The protocol consisted of breathing exercises during 30 minutes: passive and localized exercises, deep diaphragmatic breathing and exercises of chest wall expansion (decompression) and incentive spirometry.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change from baseline in spirometric measures.
The spirometry is used to assess chest volume and capacity of individual patients respiratory disease and their response to therapy and is regarded as the gold standard measure of respiratory function. The following variables were recorded; forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume achieved in 1 second.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Comparison of pulse oxymetry before/after chest physiotherapy. Comparison of blood pressure before/after chest physiotherapy.
The pulse oxymetry or pulse oximeter is used to measure peripheral oxygen saturation. The arterial blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) will be measured by sphygmomanometer to follow the displacement.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the hospitalized patients with increased waist circumference exhibit cardiorespiratory alterations after chest physical therapy.
Detailed Description
The physiotherapist assessment will consist of anthropometry (body mass index, abdominal circumference, adipometer); chest inspection and palpation, vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory frequence, oxymetry), dyspnea index and capillar blood glucose; and later with pulmonary tests (thoracoabdominal perimetry, respiratory muscle strength and pulmonary volume and capacity). This will be a quasi-experimental study. Patients will be divided into four groups according to waist circumference (increased or not, with respect to cardiovascular risk) and respiratory disorders (obstructive and restrictive). After this assessment, chest physical therapy will begin according to the protocol for obstructive and restrictive respiratory disorders. The treatment will have an average duration of 30 minutes. At the end of treatment (single session) the patient will be assessed again after five and thirty minutes.

Time Frame
Baseline, five and thirty minutes.
Other Pre-specified Outcome Measures:
Title
Comparison of heart rate variability before/after chest physiotherapy. Comparison of thoracoabdominal perimetry before/after chest physiotherapy.
Description
Heart rate variability has become the conventionally accepted term to describe variations of both instantaneous heart rate and intervals (time domain). Thoracoabdominal perimetry consists of a set of measurements of thoracic and abdominal circumferences during respiratory movements, and it aims at quantifying the thoracoabdominal mobility.
Time Frame
Baseline, five and thirty minutes.
