Summary

The purpose of this study is to provide information on how the practicing of deep breathing ("DBR" - diaphragmatic breathing re-training) may improve the health outcomes and likelihood of heart failure patients to engage in health-promoting activities by successfully controlling their shortness of breath (dyspnea).

BEHAVIORAL

Diaphragmatic Breathing Retraining

Diaphragmatic breathing retraining (DBR) with a slow breathing pattern such that breathe in slowly through the nose for 4 seconds and breathe out slowly through the mouth for 6 seconds and mediated by Self-efficacy for DBR. Patients in this group will receive detailed instructions, in-person, as to how to carry out the DBR intervention at home. They will provide a return demonstration to the research staff about how to do the deep breathing. They will also receive a written script of the DBR intervention. In addition to the script, patients in this group will receive 3 audio CDs (1 for week 1 \[5-min DBR\], 1 for week 2 \[10-min DBR\], 1 for weeks 3-8 \[15-min DBR\]), developed by the PI, to use to practice their deep breathing.
