The Impact Of An Education-Based Intervention Program (EBIP) On Dyspnea And Chronic Self-Care Management Among Copd Patients: A Randomized Controlled Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating An Education-Based Intervention Program and handbook (EBIP, hospital and home) and PFT, BMI, BDI, SCMP-G for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD) treatment, leading to the role of nurses to become more and more important. An Education-Based Intervention Program(EBIP) consists of several steps that aim to achieve better health outcomes through guidingCOPD patients to reduce dyspnea symptoms and improve chronic self-care management skills. The aim of this study is to evaluate the dyspnea and chronic self-care management outcomes of EBIP compared to routine care. Research Hypotheses: H0: EBIP has no effect on dyspnea or chronic self-care management in COPD patients. H1: EBIP effects dyspnea outcomes of COPD patients. H2: EBIP effects chronic self-care management outcomes of COPD patients.
