Educational Intervention for Managing Inhalers in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients

Given the importance of the correct use of inhalers by patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) for the appropriate treatment of the disease, the self-care programme which will be assessed will consist of an educational intervention on the correct use of inhalers. For this aim, we have designed this study to assess the influence of both individualized and collective self care programmes about the correct use of inhalers improves the functional state of patients with COPD compared to when there is no educational intervention.
