Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The research will be conducted in a community in central Taiwan. Inclusion criteria are people over the age of 65 in the community. All participants will be randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the control group. The experimental group will receive the breathing training of abdominal diaphragmatic breathing method combined with incentive spiromete. The control group is only taught the breathing training of abdominal diaphragmatic breathing. Four assessment tools will be used, including the demographic questionnaire, respiratory capacity indicators, Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnea Scale, and the World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF Taiwan Version (WHOQOL-BREF; WHOQOL-BREF). Data analysis will be performed by independent sample t test, paired t test, and repeated measures analysis. All data analysis will be performed by SPSS version 22.0.
