Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this article is to critically appraise and synthesize the literature on breathing retraining as a self-management strategy for individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) guided by Rosswurm and Larrabee's evidence-based practice model. Data sources: Scientific literature review, grey literature review, and hand searching. Conclusions: An exhaustive review of the literature revealed evidence that regularly practiced pursed lip breathing is an effective self-management strategy for individuals with COPD to improve their dyspnea. Implications for practice: It is expected that implementation of this non-pharmacological self-management intervention will improve perception of dyspnea, functional performance, and self-efficacy in individuals with COPD.
