Breathing exercise applied to HF patients has an effect on the mean fatigue score. c:
Breathing exercise applied to HF patients has an effect on self-care mean scores. d:
Relaxation exercise applied to HF patients has an effect on the mean dyspnea score. e:
Relaxation exercise applied to HF patients has an effect on the mean fatigue score.
f: Relaxation exercise applied to HF patients has an effect on self-care mean scores.
