Summary

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a disease that affects multiple systems, however, the accumulation of secretion in the airways contributes to the fact that pulmonary complications are the main responsible for the high rates of morbidity and mortality. Physical exercise can be an important component in the treatment of these patients, and modalities such as Nintendo Wii and Xbox One stand out as feasible and innovative methods that can contribute to increase adherence to rehabilitation. Thus, the objective of this study is to compare the cardiorespiratory responses during a maximal exercise test with the use of Nintendo Wii and Xbox One in patients with CF and healthy individuals. Patients with a clinical diagnosis of CF, aged from 6 to 30 years old and in stable clinical conditions will be included. For healthy individuals, those who are considered healthy from the application of a health questionnaire and also aged from 6 to 30 years old will be included. Patients in both groups with cardiopathies, musculoskeletal diseases, neurological diseases or signs of pulmonary exacerbation will be excluded. Participants will complete a questionnaire to assess their level of physical activity. Afterwards, cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) will be performed (visit 1), followed by the use of video games (visit 2). The video game will be practiced using a Nintendo Wii and a Xbox One (10 minutes each). A rest of 10 minutes will be provided between the use of each video game. During the interactive games, patients will use an accelerometer to assess the level of physical activity. In parallel to this, healthy subjects will be invited to perform the same tests in two visits. To evaluate the perception of fatigue, the OMNI scale will be used. In addition, individuals will be asked to evaluate their level of satisfaction after each game.
