Summary

Our study aims to develop a personalized interactive digital breathing game and device that can be produced in our country and to provide daily airway cleaning treatment at home via mobile phone or computer without the need for a physiotherapist or healthcare professional with the use of an interactive digital breathing game.

DEVICE

Interactive Digital Respiratory Game

With the development of technology and digitalization, Digital Respiratory Games (DRG) offer an alternative solution. DRGs, with their difficulty levels, provide a platform for progression, offering a fun and engaging experience that enhances patient adherence to therapy through storytelling and user interaction. The absence of a locally made DRG in Turkey, despite the chronic respiratory diseases impact, has led to the need for an interactive DRG with personalized features. The developed interactive DRG and device will be Turkey first interactive DRG example, designed to respond to different respiratory maneuvers. The developed DRG and device will detect the lung volume and flow rates and allow for the real-time execution of maneuvers within the Active Cycle of Breathing Techniques (ACBT) in a playful environment.

OTHER

home-based exercise training

Patients in the home-based exercise training group will be asked to perform the active breathing techniques cycle, which is an airway clearance technique, twice a day, 7 days a week, for 20 minutes each, for 8 weeks and to follow the program that includes physical activity recommendations. Patients who use mucolytic and/or nebulized drugs such as hypertonic saline or mannitol will be instructed to perform nebulization before performing the active breathing techniques cycle.
