Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Anthropometric, respiratory muscle evaluation to compare the respiratory muscle strength of institutionalized women with the predicted values for the Brazilian population.
First, women will be submitted to anthropometric evaluation constituted by height and weight measurements (utilizing a stadiometer and a calibrated balance). On the same day, and in just a single session the respiratory muscle strength will be evaluated by measurement of maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressure values, utilizing an aneroid manovacuometer. For this, each maneuver it will be made at three repetitions with an interval of one minute between each repetition.The forced inspiratory maneuver was performed from residual volume and the forced expiratory maneuver was performed from total pulmonary capacity.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 3944 0
To evaluate the respiratory muscle strength of institutionalized women and to compare with the predicted values for the Brazilian population. The respiratory muscle strength will be inferred through measurement of the sub and supra atmospheric pressure generated by inspiratory and expiratory muscles respectively, for this will be utilized an aneroid manovacuometer. The inspiratory and expiratory pressures evaluated through the mouth, reflect the pressure that is being generated in the alveolus by the action of respiratory muscles. This technique has been widely utilized to be characterized noninvasive method and its objectives are to identify possible weakness, fatigue and respiratory muscle failure, as well as to quantify the effects of respiratory training.
Timepoint [1] 3944 0
20 minutes after anthropometric evaluation
Secondary outcome [1] 6625 0
To correlate the maximal respiratory pressure values with age, weight, height and body mass index
Timepoint [1] 6625 0
Conducted during the analysis of data about 60 days after anthropometric and respiratory evaluation.
