Eksperimentel: Single-Task Followed by Cognitive Dual-Task
Participants first perform inhaler use under the single-task condition, without a concurrent cognitive task.
After a short rest and without any inhaler-technique training or correction, they perform inhaler use under a working-memory cognitive load.
In both conditions, inhaler technique is scored using the same standardized five-item device-specific checklist and inhaler-use time is recorded.
|
Participants are presented with a standardized five-digit sequence before inhaler use and are instructed to retain the sequence in working memory while completing their usual inhaler technique.
The sequence is presented once at approximately one digit per second.
Participants do not verbalize the digits during inhaler use.
Immediately after completing the inhaler maneuver, they reproduce the sequence in reverse order.
Inhaler technique is simultaneously assessed using a standardized five-item device-specific checklist, and inhaler-use time is recorded.
Participants use their usual maintenance inhaler without a concurrent cognitive task.
They are instructed to use the inhaler as they normally do at home.
Inhaler technique is assessed using the same standardized five-item device-specific checklist, and inhaler-use time is recorded.
No inhaler-technique training, correction, or feedback is provided before completion of both study conditions.

Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Change in Inhaler Technique Performance Under Cognitive Load
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions
|
Difference in the number of satisfactory inhaler-technique steps between the cognitive dual-task condition and the single-task condition, assessed using the same standardized 5-item device-specific inhaler technique checklist.
Each checklist item is scored as 1 = satisfactory or 0 = unsatisfactory/omitted, yielding a total score of 0 to 5 for each condition.
The primary outcome is calculated as dual-task satisfactory score minus single-task satisfactory score, with a possible range from -5 to +5.
Negative values indicate deterioration of inhaler technique under cognitive load.

New Inhaler Error Under Cognitive Load
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions
|
Binary outcome indicating whether inhaler technique deteriorates under cognitive load.
A new inhaler error is defined as having fewer satisfactory items on the standardized 5-item inhaler technique checklist during the cognitive dual-task condition than during the single-task condition.
Coded as 1 = deterioration under cognitive load and 0 = no deterioration.

During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions

Worsening of Inhaler Technique Classification Under Cognitive Load
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions
|
Binary outcome indicating whether the participant's inhaler technique classification worsens from Acceptable during the single-task condition to Unacceptable during the cognitive dual-task condition.
Inhaler technique is classified using the standardized 5-item checklist, with 4-5 satisfactory steps classified as Acceptable and 0-3 satisfactory steps classified as Unacceptable.
Coded as 1 = classification worsened and 0 = no worsening.

During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions

Inhaler Time Dual-Task Cost
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions
|
Percentage change in inhaler-use time between the cognitive dual-task and single-task conditions.
It is calculated as [(dual-task inhaler time - single-task inhaler time) / single-task inhaler time] × 100.
Positive values indicate slower inhaler use under cognitive load.

Inhaler Cognitive Dual-Task Cost
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of the inhaler cognitive assessments
|
Percentage change in working-memory performance between the cognitive single-task condition and the inhaler cognitive dual-task condition.
It is calculated as [(single-task cognitive accuracy - dual-task cognitive accuracy) / single-task cognitive accuracy] × 100.
Positive values indicate poorer cognitive performance while using the inhaler under cognitive load.

Physical Dual-Task Cost During Timed Up and Go
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of the single-task and dual-task Timed Up and Go assessments
|
Percentage increase in Timed Up and Go completion time during the cognitive dual-task condition compared with the single-task condition.
It is calculated as [(TUG dual-task time - TUG single-task time) / TUG single-task time] × 100.
Positive values indicate slower mobility performance during dual-tasking.

Cognitive Dual-Task Cost During Timed Up and Go
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of the cognitive single-task and dual-task Timed Up and Go assessments
|
Percentage reduction in cognitive performance during the dual-task Timed Up and Go condition compared with the cognitive single-task condition.
Cognitive performance is quantified using the rate of correct responses per second.
The outcome is calculated as [(single-task correct-response rate - dual-task correct-response rate) / single-task correct-response rate] × 100.
Positive values indicate poorer cognitive performance during dual-task walking.

Change in Inhaler Completion Time Under Cognitive Load
Tidsramme: During the single study visit, immediately after completion of both inhaler conditions
|
Absolute difference in inhaler-use time between the cognitive dual-task and single-task conditions.
It is calculated as dual-task inhaler time minus single-task inhaler time, expressed in seconds.
Positive values indicate longer inhaler-use time under cognitive load.
