The mean score of the overall performance of the inhaler technique was improved after intervention at 74.6%, and it was showed a significant difference between before and after the intervention (t value = 12.5, P<0.05, df =29). After intervention the use of inhaler technique was improved in the aspects of preparation phase 27.7% (t=8.65), performance phase 23.0%, (t=4.13%), and aftercare phase 24.2% (t=6.88%).
