This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a pharmacist-led interactive mobile health intervention (serious game) in adults aged 50 years and older with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The study will test whether the intervention improves health status compared with usual care. Secondary outcomes include inhaler technique, medication adherence, health knowledge, dyspnea, clinical events, healthcare utilization, and costs.
