Summary

COPD is a progressive and irreversible lung disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation, dyspnea, chronic cough, and impaired daily functioning, often accompanied by comorbidities that reduce quality of life. Despite its high prevalence in Taiwan, COPD remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. This study aims to evaluate a transtheoretical model-based digital multimedia nursing education intervention for elderly patients with COPD. The intervention is designed to enhance disease knowledge, promote self-care behaviors, and improve self-management abilities, ultimately supporting better quality of life and daily functioning in this population.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

E-book on Pulmonary Obstruction

The digital teaching intervention group used a computer-downloaded "E-book on Pulmonary Obstruction" for one-on-one teaching. The subjects were also taught how to use their mobile phones to download the "E-book on Pulmonary Obstruction" and how to read it, so that they could use it on their own after returning home. The intervention time for both groups was once a week for 50 minutes each time for a total of 8 weeks. The teaching content is divided into eight themes: (1) How much do you know about pulmonary obstruction? (2) Inhalation treatment for pulmonary obstruction - Introduction to inhalers? (3) Care for pulmonary obstruction - Breathing exercise techniques? (4) Activities and exercise training? (5) Self-management methods for acute pulmonary obstruction? (6) Lung rehabilitation for pulmonary obstruction? (7) Nutritional care for pulmonary obstruction? (8) Care for pulmonary obstruction - Smoking cessation?
