Changes in Dyspnea, Activity and Sleep in COPD by Video-Based Breathing Exercises

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the most prevalent and high-mortality chronic diseases worldwide. Symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, sleep disturbances, fatigue, restricted activity levels, anxiety, and depression develop in COPD patients, negatively affecting their quality of life. Dyspnea, associated with various symptoms in COPD patients such as reduced activity levels and sleep disturbances, is a significant issue. Therefore, effective management of dyspnea will contribute to reducing other important problems associated with COPD. One of the non-pharmacological methods used in managing these symptoms associated with COPD is breathing exercises. Particularly, pursed-lip breathing exercises and diaphragmatic breathing exercises are recommended for symptom management in COPD patients in the literature. The aim of this study was to learn the effects of video-based breathing exercises (pursed lips and diaphragmatic breathing) training given to COPD patients over 18 years of age on the severity of dyspnea experienced by the patient, activity level and sleep quality. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the use of video-based breathing exercises for 30 days result in a decrease in dyspnea severity and an increase in activity level and sleep quality in COPD patients over 18 years of age? Patients will receive video-based breathing exercises lasting approximately 5-7 minutes and will perform the breathing exercises regularly for 30 days, keep a diary and receive follow-up messages (sms). Afterwards, dyspnea severity, activity level and sleep quality will be assessed again, both in the group itself and in comparison with the control group that did not receive this education and follow-up.
