SpiroPlay, a Suite of Breathing Games for Spirometry by Kids & Experts
summary
A suite of 11 breathing-game metaphors targets three spirometry measures—inhalation, peak expiration, complete exhalation—and three metaphors are fully implemented and tested with 30 children with asthma. Games use multi-target incentives, separate goals and independent responses, and allow exceeding targets; a tailored unlock system rewards regular correct tests. Results show clear preferences for dragon breathing fire and soccer player kicking a ball, dislike for dandelion and dog-hair metaphors, and evidence that multiple games increase engagement and fit varied abilities.
