Abstract in Portuguese
Foi elaborado um programa de intervenção para pacientes asmáticos através da aplicação inédita de exercícios respiratórios em piscina coberta e aquecida, conduzidos por um fisioterapeuta, comparando-se o impacto de uma intervenção única do mesmo aplicado em solo. Participaram do estudo 40 pacientes adultos, asmáticos persistentes de moderados a graves, sem acompanhamento medicamentoso, fazendo uso apenas de ß2 agonista de curta duração. Avaliou-se a função pulmonar, a força muscular, a cirtometria, postura e escore de ansiedade. Verificou-se que a intervenção em água não foi prejudicial para os sujeitos, oferecendo alguns benefícios que superam aqueles encontrados em solo, como a mobilidade da caixa torácica, reeducação do padrão respiratório, melhora do desconforto respiratório e do estado de ansiedade

Abstract in English
It was developed an original exercises program for asthmatic patients using breathing exercises in warm-water pool, conducted by a physiotherapist and subsequently compared with the same program performed in land in order to evaluate the effects of a single session respiratory exercise program. 40 adult patients, with moderated to severe asthma, without medical treatment, using only short action ß2 agonist were randomly allocated this study. It was evaluated the lung function, muscle strength, thoracic and abdominal circumference measurement, posture and anxiety. It was concluded that the water intervention is not harmful for the patients, offering some benefits which exceed those obtained in land, as thoracic mobility, reeducation of the respiratory pattern, improvement of the dyspnea and anxiety scores
