Summary

Dyspnea is the main reason that patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) to sedentary. It's a vicious circle of deteriorating lung function. The heart rate various(HRV)biofeedback with respiratory regulation training had been reported to reduce dyspnea and improve regulatory physical activities in COPD. However, HRV is not available with patients in communities persistently, the arm of this study is to explore the effect of the pulse oximeter biofeedback with respiratory regulation training to improve physical activities in COPD. A 2-group, randomized design study, the subjects are GOLD stage II-IV COPD from a medical center hospital of the middle of Taiwan. The experiment cases will be taught the skills of evaluating oximeter data and performing correct pursed-lip with diaphragmatic breathing. All experiment and controlled patients have to fill out the demographic form, the modified British Medical Research Council (mMRC), the international physical Activity questionnaire- short form(IPAQ-SF), exercise self-regulation efficacy scale (Ex-SRES), COPD assessment test (CAT), and physical activity \& respiratory training diary in pre-intervention and 12 weeks later. The collective data will analyze with SPSS 22.0.
