Summary

This study aims to present the results of the effect of pinwheel breathing exercises on the quality of life in children with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). In this randomized controlled study, 81 children with CF who were being monitored by the treatment team in the pediatric chest polyclinic of a state hospital and meeting the inclusion criteria were divided equally into two groups. The children in the first group (intervention group) were instructed to perform breathing exercises with a pinwheel twice a day, at a convenient time in the morning and in the evening, every day for 3 months in their own homes according to the Breathing Exercise Tracking Form (BETF) and to fill in the required fields of the form during this process. The children in the second group (control group) did not perform the pinwheel breathing exercise. The quality of life of the children in both groups was evaluated with the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) (age group 6-11).
