dc.description.abstract | AimThe objective was to determine the effect of a regular walking program on physical activity (the number of steps and walking duration), dyspnoea severity, and quality of life in normal weight, overweight, and obese patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. MethodAn experimental study; 50 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease admitted to the respiratory clinic of a public hospital in Turkey between November 2014 and July 2015 were included. All the patients underwent a regular walking program (at least 30minutes every day) using a pedometer for 16weeks under the supervision of a nurse. ResultsAfter the regular walking program, the respiratory function test results of the obese patients were significantly improved. The walking duration, the number of steps taken per day, and the quality of life of all participants improved significantly, and dyspnoea severity was reduced in all participants. ConclusionThe regular walking program reduced dyspnoea severity and improved quality of life in all participants. Nurses' efforts to increase activity levels in all patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and particularly those with obesity, through a regular walking program may contribute to reduce the severity of dyspnoea and improve quality of life. | en_US |
