I am currently a professor and vice-coordinator of the Undergraduate Course in Physiotherapy at the Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto at the University of São Paulo. I have clinical and teaching experience in the area of #8203;#8203;Respiratory Physiotherapy and is part of the research line of the Postgraduate Program in Rehabilitation and Functional Performance, called Cardiorespiratory Performance and Adaptations, with projects aimed at studying the effect of Respiratory Physiotherapy interventions, with focus on respiratory assessment techniques, including assessment of mechanics, especially respiratory system resistance, muscle strength and inflammation markers, and the impact of respiratory diseases and prolonged mechanical ventilation on exercise capacity and quality of life of people.

Advances in knowledge have contributed to the increase in the number of patients who survive to prolonged hospitalization in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and, among them, critically ill patients who progress to acute respiratory failure and the need for mechanical ventilation. These individuals have their mobility restricted to the bed, and may present pulmonary and systemic complication…
Bronchiectasis are characterized by pathological and irreversible dilatation of the bronchi, and the perpetuation of inflammatory processes induced by chronic or recurrent infections that result in inefficient removal of secretions and microorganisms. Patients may benefit from physiotherapy to remove secretions, as well as global exercises in a rehabilitation program. The aim of this stud…
The bronchiectasis are pathologically caractherised by abnormal and permanent dilation if the bronchi, caused mainly by the continuous inflammatory process and impairement of mucociliary clearance. The physiotherapy is one important part of treatment using its different techniques and devices. The objective of this study is to evaluate the respiratory system impedance after breathing exer…

Introduction: Advances in knowledge have contributed to an increase in the number of patients who survive prolonged hospitalization in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), including critically ill patients who progress to Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF) and the need for mechanical ventilation (MV). These individuals have their mobility restricted to the bed, and can develop pulmonary and systemi…
Introduction: Advances in knowledge have contributed to the increase in the number ofpatients who survive prolonged stay in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and, among them, severe patients who evolve to Acute Respiratory Failure(IRpA) and the need for mechanical ventilation (MV). These individuals have their mobilitybedridden, and may course with pulmonary and systemic complications, such a…

The act of coughing is a defense mechanism and pulmonary homeostasis and is a major symptom in many respiratory disorders. The effects of cough on health status are rarely evaluated and recorded in clinical practice. The objective assessment of cough is an essential part of communication between therapists and patients, allowing for a clear assessment of the effectiveness of interventions…

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible, usually progressive, commonly associated with cigarette smoke, chronic inflammation and increased secretory cells associated with mucus hypersecretion. It may occur episodes of exacerbation, characterized by a change in the patient's baseline dyspnea, cough and/or sputum beyon…
