SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Dyspnea will be assessed at baseline and at 7 days with the score on the visual analogue scale (VAS). The scores range from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum) with higher numbers representing improvements in dyspnea (i.e. better) and lower numbers representing worsening of dyspnea (i.e. worse).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Dyspnea will be assessed using a Seven-Level Likert Scale at baseline and the day 7 visit. The outcome measure will be reported as a difference between these two assessments (value at 7 days minus the value at baseline). The values on this scale range from 1 to 7 with higher numbers indicating overall better subjective assessment related to the symptom of dyspnea. Therefore, positive numbers represent an overall improvement in dyspnea during the study intervention and the higher (more positive) this difference is, the better the subject's relief of dyspnea at the conclusion of the study intervention.
