Özet
Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of breathing exercise on self-care management in chronic obstructive pulmonary patients. Methods: The study was conducted in a cross-sectional descriptive type with 415 COPD patients between 04.01-04.02.2023. COPD patient identification form and self-care management scale in chronic diseases were used to collect research data. The research data were evaluated with the statistical package program. Results: The rate of application of breathing exercises by the participants was found to be 47.7%. The mean self-care management of patients with COPD was found to be 93.53±35.32. It was determined that the mean of self-care management of the COPD patients who participated in the study who applied breathing exercise was 100.97±29.86, the mean of self-care management of the participants who did not apply respiratory exercise was 86.73±38.48, and the difference between the averages was statistically significant (p < .001). Conclusion: As a result of this study, it was determined that the level of application of breathing exercises in COPD patients was below fifty percent, and the level of self-care management was below the middle. It was determined that the practice of breathing exercise was effective on self-care management.
