Resumo: Objectivo: O objectivo do estudo consistiu em avaliar a eficácia de um programa de treino combinado (exercÃcios aeróbios e exercÃcios de força muscular dinâmica) comparativamente com um programa de treino aeróbio, e de fisioterapia respiratória, ao nÃvel do estado de saúde de indivÃduos com DPOC, durante 10 semanas. Métodos: Cinquenta indivÃduos com DPOC moderada e grave foram distribuÃdos aleatoriamente por dois grupos. Grupo CG (n=25) submetido a treino combinado, grupo AG (n=25) submetido a treino aeróbio, os quais foram comparados com cinquenta indivÃduos com DPOC, que realizaram exercÃcios de reeducação respiratória e técnicas de desobstrução brônquica, grupo FR (n=50). Foi avaliado o estado de saúde através de Questionário do Hospital St. George na Doença Respiratória (SGRQ) e do Questionário SF-36 no inÃcio da intervenção e 10 semanas após. Resultados: O grupo CG apresentou diferenças (p<0,0001) nas taxas de modificação no estado de saúde relativamente, aos grupos AG e FR, nos domÃnios da actividade (64±9%; 19±7%; 1±15%), impacto (35±5%; 20±18%; 1±14%), e total (41±9%; 26±17%; 1±15%), avaliados pelo SGRQ; e nas dimensões da função fÃsica (109±74%; 22±12%; 0,1±18%), desempenho fÃsico (52±36%; 11±15%; 1,3±21%) e vitalidade (83±39%; 14±38%) avaliadas pelo SF-36. Conclusão: Estes resultados sugerem que o treino combinado, em indivÃduos com DPOC, parece ser um método mais eficaz, que promoveu alterações clinicamente significativas, com uma melhoria ao nÃvel da percepção do estado de saúde.Rev Port Pneumol 2010; XVI (5): 737-757 Abstract: Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a 10-week combined training programme (aerobic and strength exercise) compared to an aerobic training programme, and respiratory physiotherapy on COPD patientsâ health. Methods: Fifty subjects with moderate to severe COPD were randomly assigned to two groups. Combined group (CG, n=25) who underwent combined training, and aerobic group (AG, n=25) who underwent aerobic training. These were compared with fifty COPD subjects who underwent respiratory physiotherapy, breathing control and bronchial clearance techniques (RP group, n=50). We evaluated health state through two questionnaires, St. Georgeâs Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) and SF-36, at the beginning and at the end of the programme. Results: The CG group showed differences (p<0.0001) in modification rates in state of health compared to the AG and RP groups in the activity (64±9%, 19±7%, 1±15%), impact (35±5%, 20±18%, 1±14%) and total (41±9%, 26±17%, 1±15%) domains assessed by the SGRQ, and the physical function (109±74%, 22±12%, 0.1±18%), physical role (52±36%, 11±15%, 1.3±21%) and vitality (83±39%, 14±38%) domains assessed by SF-36. Conclusion: These results suggest that combined training in subjects with COPD appears to be a more effective method, with better clinical changes, and improvements in health state perception.Rev Port Pneumol 2010; XVI (5): 737-757 Palavras-chave: Doença pulmonar obstrutiva crónica, exercÃcio aeróbio, exercÃcio de força, fisioterapia respiratória, estado de saúde, Keywords: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, respiratory physiotherapy, endurance exercise, strength exercise, health state
