Summary

This study tests a 12-month program led by physiotherapists to help people with COPD use their inhalers correctly. Many patients make errors that prevent medication from reaching the lungs, worsening symptoms. The program includes hands-on training and device checks to improve technique. Researchers will compare inhaler use between those who get the program and those who receive usual care.
