简要总结
A randomised clinical trial to assess the impact of an online singing, breathing and wellbeing programme (ENO Breathe) developed specifically for people recovering from COVID-19.
详细描述
BACKGROUND:
ENO Breathe is a breathing and wellbeing programme developed specifically for people recovering from COVID-19, who are still suffering from breathlessness and associated anxiety. Delivered by ENO in collaboration with Imperial College Healthcare teams entirely online, the programme focuses on breathing re-training through singing. Initial evaluation of the project suggested health improvements related to participation, however, a properly conducted efficacy study is needed.
DESIGN: An assessor blind, parallel group, randomised controlled trial, to assess the effects of ENO Breathe compared to usual care on health status. The study will also evaluate the impact on respiratory symptoms, anxiety, depression, and breathlessness perception to investigate the mechanisms involved.
RESEARCH QUESION AND OUTCOME MEASURES:
The primary outcome will be change in health status, assessed using the RAND-36 tool (RAND SF-36), comparing ENO Breathe and Usual Care arms.

- Changes in Visual Analogue Scale ratings of breathlessness(At baseline, then repeated after 6 weeks.)
- Changes in Generalised Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7)(At baseline, then repeated after 6 weeks.)
- Changes in Dyspnoea-12 questionnaire(At baseline, then repeated after 6 weeks.)
