Abstract
Introduction: Dyspnea is one of the most characteristic symptoms of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and is directly related to the reduction in a person's capacity for exercise, performance of daily life activities, and self-care. The purpose of this study was to understand the level of dyspnea, the ability to perform daily life activities, and the dependence level on self-care in individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
Methodology: Exploratory, descriptive and cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach.
Results: The sample was formed by 52 participants, predominantly male, with an average age of 72 years. Regarding the degree of dyspnea, assessed by the modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale, 76.9% of the participants reported dyspnea ? 2. The London Chest Activity of Daily Living scale revealed that 55.8% of participants had limitations in performing daily life activities. According to the Barthel Index, 67.3% of the sample were independent in self-care.
Conclusion: Participants in the study revealed a high level of dyspnea and limitations in performing daily life activities, but when assessing the degree of autonomy in self-care, the majority of participants are independent. Therefore, the Specialist Nurse in Rehabilitation interventions should aim to optimize the capabilities of individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, promote their autonomy and quality of life, as well as empower them for disease self-management.
