Objectivo: Avaliar a efectividade da fisioterapia respiratória na doença pulmonar obstrutiva crónica (DPOC), através da avaliação da capacidade respiratória, capacidade física - tolerância ao exercício e da qualidade de vida – estudo de caso. Método: Estudo de caso do tipo exploratório e descritivo. A selecção da participante foi efectuada por conveniência no departamento de Fisioterapia, Serviço de Pneumologia, do Hospital Joaquim Urbano. A participante foi avaliada antes e após o follow-up de 10 semanas de fisioterapia respiratória. Resultados: Comparando os valores antes e após a fisioterapia respiratória, verificou-se uma melhoria significativa na distância total percorrida na prova dos seis minutos da marcha e na qualidade de vida medida pela escala SGRQ. Contudo a capacidade respiratória obtida pela espirometria não apresentou melhorias após o follow-up. Conclusão: A fisioterapia respiratória comprovou ser efectiva para a melhoria da capacidade física e qualidade de vida na doença pulmonar obstrutiva crónica, contudo não influenciou a função pulmonar.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of respiratory physiotherapy in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), by assessing the respiratory capacity, physical capacity - exercise tolerance and quality of life - case study. Method: Case study of an exploratory and descriptive type. The selection of participants was made in the Department of Physiotherapy for convenience, Department of Pulmonology, Joaquim Urbano’s Hospital. The participant was analyzed before and after the follow-up of 10 weeks of physiotherapy. Results: Comparing the values from before and after the physiotherapy, there was a significant improvement in the total distance traveled in the six-minute walk test and quality of life measured by SGRQ scale. However, the respiratory capacity obtained by spirometry showed no improvements after the follow-up. Conclusions: Respiratory therapy was proved to be effective in the improvement of physical capacity and quality of life in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, although it doesn’t influence lung function.
