Video game breathing exercises for asthma-COPD overlap
Treatments studied
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if breathing exercises performed through video games can improve respiratory function in people with Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome (ACOS). It may help those who have breathing difficulties but are otherwise stable.
