The Effect of Pursed-Lip Breathing Exercise on Anxiety and Physiological Parameters Post-Bronchoscopy in Patients With COPD: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The Effect of Purse-Lip Breathing Exercise on Anxiety and Physiological Parameters Post-Bronchoscopy in Patients With COPD: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Jan 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This randomized controlled trial investigates the effect of Pursed Lip Breathing (PLB) on anxiety levels and physiological parameters in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) following bronchoscopy. While PLB is known to improve oxygenation and ventilation in pulmonary rehabilitation, its specific impact on the immediate recovery period after bronchoscopy is understudied. The study aims to determine if nurse-led PLB intervention significantly improves heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and reduces anxiety compared to standard care.
