Abstract
Introduction: Dyspnea, or difficulty breathing, is a common symptom that affects individuals with chronic lung diseases, such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), lung cancer, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, mesothelioma, and others. Nurses are the most frequently encountered providers at the bedside and have a unique obligation to treat the symptomology of these lung diseases. Nurses are charged with doing no harm and acting in the best interest of the patient; therefore, reducing dyspnea addresses these key ethical considerations (American Nurses Association, 2015).
