研究组 & 干预措施
singing arm
Singing for Wellness will use an uncontrolled observational study design. Two mixed-cohort, 12-week community choirs will be delivered by experienced vocal practitioners in South Devon localities: Newton Abbott and Torquay.
Lung function, frailty and health-related quality of life will be assessed by Spirometry, CRQ (chronic respiratory questionnaire), MRC breathlessness scale, Rockwood frailty and Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (WEMWBS). Participants will be assessed at baseline and then again at completion of the 12-week course.
Written feedback from participants to capture qualitative experience using narrative and Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs). The attrition and attendance rate will also be recorded for later review.
