Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Respiratory exercise device group
PEP Device
The breathing exercise device is a device that simulates pursed-lip breathing by creating positive expiratory pressure (PEP). Before starting to use the device, it will be explained that they need to put the mouthpiece on the device and put the nose clip on their nose, and the participants will be shown how it is done. The device will be used at 5 cmH2O pressure. A single exercise session consists of 3 exercise cycles, and a single exercise cycle consists of 15 breathing-exhalation activities. Participants will complete 3 cycles (a total of 45 inhales and exhales) in a single session. 1 loop lying on the left side, 1 loop lying on the right side, and 1 loop in sitting upright position. Participants held these sessions in the morning, afternoon, and evening. After completing each cycle, the participants will remove their nose clips and cough 2-3 times. Each participant will perform a total of 135 breathing exercises in one day.
Reading aloud group
Reading Aloud
The patients in this group were given a book that they chose from among the book types within the scope of the study, according to their wishes. For the selection of books, opinions were taken from the experts in the education faculty of the same university and it was stated that any book separation was not important. The books that the participants wanted to read were provided by the researcher. They were asked to read this book aloud during the day, sitting upright on a chair or sofa, for 15 minutes, three times a day.
They were able to stop reading when the participant was tired or felt too short of breath to continue reading.
