Interventions

  • telenursing — BEHAVIORAL
    The responsible researcher will provide oral health education to the experimental group via video call during the telenursing intervention. The content of the education will include oral health in adults; the consequences of poor oral hygiene; things to pay attention to in oral health; demonstration of toothbrushing technique; and coping with care-resistant behaviors. Participants' questions regarding oral health will be answered during the call. The oral health education session is planned to last approximately 20 minutes.
  • reminders — BEHAVIORAL
    Participants in the experimental group will be reminded to perform oral care at least twice a day, every day, and to rinse their mouths with water after using an inhaler. They will also be reminded to schedule a face-to-face meeting one month after the education.

Study Details

This research will be conducted using a pre-test and post-test control group experimental design to evaluate the effect of telenursing intervention on oral health in individuals with COPD.

Arms

  • Experimental: experimental group
    The experimental group will receive oral health education via telenursing intervention (via video call) and daily oral health reminders. Oral health education for the experimental group is planned to be given within 24 hours after the pre-test. Participants will also receive reminders regarding oral hygiene, including "performing oral care at least twice a day, every day" and "rinsing their mouths with water after using an inhaler." The experimental group will be invited to the hospital one month after the oral health education for evaluation of oral health and quality of life related to oral health.
  • No Intervention: control group
    The control group will not receive training. They will be invited to the hospital for an oral health and quality of life check one month after the initial follow-up.
