The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of pulmonary rehabilitation on the transport of secretions, inflammation and respiratory resistance, and its repercussions on the quality of life in patients with bronchiectasis.
Bronchiectasis is characterized by pathological and irreversible dilation of bronchi caused by the inefficient removal of secretions and microorganisms and the perpetuation of inflammatory processes induced by chronic or recurrent infections, causing more damage to the airways that result in infections, and greater lesion airways and lung parenchyma. Pulmonary rehabilitation in people with bronchiectasis aims to improve exercise capacity, through effects on aerobic capacity and peripheral muscles, and to improve disease control and quality of life. The aim this study is to evaluate the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation on the transport of secretions, inflammation and respiratory resistance, and its repercussions on the quality of life in patients with bronchiectasis. In this study 60 volunteers, of both sexes, aged between 18-60 years, adequate the inclusion criteria, which will be assessed by lung function tests, the saccharin transport time, the inflammatory markers in the airways, the respiratory system resistance and quality of life scales. Volunteers will be randomly divided in pulmonary rehabilitation (PRG) and control groups (CG) that will be subdivided in bronchiectasis and healthy subgroups. In the PRG group they will receive supervised physical training twice a week and will be instructed to adopt a routine of home exercises, while CG will be informed about the benefits of physical activities. All volunteers will be evaluated after 8 weeks of the baseline and at the end of the research. Data evolution will be collected from medical records and notes of the medical team and physical therapy that will follow the routine of these participants

| Control | Other | No supervised exercise session, only will be informed at the beginning of the study to perform thirty minutes of physical activity of moderate intensity several days a week is associated with health benefits |
|
For this evaluation the investigators will use the Quality of life in bronchiectasis (QOLB) (Chalmers, 2014)
| Through study completion, an average of 2 years. |
| Cough Impact Assessment | For this evaluation the investigators will use the Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ), (Murray, 2009). | Through study completion, an average of 2 years. |
| Health-Related Quality of Life | For this evaluation the investigators will use the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) (Ware, 1992) | Through study completion, an average of 2 years. |
| Impulse Oscillometry System (IOS) | To perform this measure, it is been used Jaeger® IOS(Jaeger, Wurzburg, Germany) with daily volume and resistance calibration. The parameters are calculated at frequencies between 5 and 35 hertz, and will be analyzed the following parameters in this test: resistance (R), reactance (X), reactance area (AX) and resonant frequency (Fres). | Through study completion, an average of 2 years. |
| Pulmonary Function Test | This test is realized by using KoKo Spirometer™ according American Thoracic Society (ATS)/European Respiratory Society (ATS)recommendations.
