The aim of this randomized controlled experimental study is to determine the effect of singing or playing melodica activity applied to COPD patients on their symptoms, self-efficacy levels, and exercise capacities. The study was carried out in the chest diseases polyclinics of a hospital in Turkey between September 2020 and August 2021 with 30 patients: 15 in the control group and 15 in the song/melodica group. The data were collected with a patient information form and the scales examining disease symptoms, self-efficacy, and exercise capacity. The physical symptom, anxiety, Borg dyspnea, and fatigue scores of the disease in the post-test were significantly lower in the patients in the song/melodica group than those in the control group. In the post-test, the self-efficacy level, walking distance values were found to be significantly higher in the song/melodica group than in the control group. It is concluded that singing or playing melodica was an effective method in reducing the symptoms of the disease and enhancing the level of self-efficacy and exercise capacity in COPD patients.
这项随机对照实验研究的目的是确定对慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）患者进行唱歌或演奏口琴活动对其症状、自我效能水平和运动能力的影响。该研究于2020年9月至2021年8月在土耳其一家医院的胸科门诊进行，共有30名患者：对照组15名，唱歌/口琴组15名。通过患者信息表以及检查疾病症状、自我效能和运动能力的量表收集数据。唱歌/口琴组患者在测试后的身体症状、焦虑、博格呼吸困难和疲劳评分显著低于对照组。在测试后，发现唱歌/口琴组的自我效能水平、步行距离值显著高于对照组。得出的结论是，唱歌或演奏口琴是减轻疾病症状、提高COPD患者自我效能水平和运动能力的有效方法。
