SUMMARY:

Background: Individuals affected by stroke present with changes in cardiovascular and res piratory functions.  Cardiorespiratory training (CRT) is one of the classic intervention guidelines for cardiorespiratory fitness. CRT in  association with the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) technique for respiratory muscles could  improve the quality of life, cardiorespiratory function and gait parameters of patients after stroke.

 Objective: To assess the effects of respiratory and trunk patterns of CRT associated with PNF on the quality of life, gait, oxygen consumption, respiratory muscle strength and thoracic volumes.

 Methods/design: A blind, randomized clinical trial with allocation confidentiality will be performed. Forty patients  will be randomized into four groups: CRT-lower limb (LL) plus PNF; CRT-LL and respiration; CRT-upper limb (UL) plus  PNF; or CRT-UL and respiration. Individuals will be evaluated at three different times   pretreatment, after 20 days of  treatment and 1 month after the end of treatment). The treatment protocol consists of respiratory exercises, 30 min of CRT (cycle ergometer) and then repetition of the respiratory exercises, performed three times a week over a
 period of 20 days. Primary outcome measures are quality of life, gait, balance, peak oxygen uptake, respiratory function, and maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, as well as rib cage compartment volumes.
Discussion: The association of PNF with CRT may be a viable and accessible alternative to increase  cardiorespiratory function in patients with stroke.
