ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of ambroxol, budesonide and obstructive combinedly atomized inhalation on old patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD). Meth-ods 60 old patients with acute exacerbation of COPD were allocated into two groups in random, the control group(n =30) and the treated group(n =30). The control group was received conventinal theray,but the treated group re-ceived combinedly atomized inhalation on basis of conventional therapy. The two groups were treated in five-seven days, and were recorded the changes of clinical symptom, physicak sign, arterial blood gas analysis and the related side effect (for example, liver and renal function, blood sugar, etc). Results There are significant difference be-twcen the two groups in clinical effect (P < 0.05). Conclusion Ambroxol, budesonida and terbutaline combinedly atomized inhalation in the treatment of old patients with acute exacerbation of COPD was effective, little side effect and very safe.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical effect of long-term domiciliary oxygen therapy (LTDOT) on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods COPD patients were randomly divided into LTDOT group and control group,LTDOT group received LTDOT on basis of conventional therapy,and control group only received conventional thempy.The lung function,blood gas analysis was detectedand quality of life in paracmasis before and after treatment was evaluted.Results After two years, FEV1[(1.42±0.42)L],PaO2[(80.0±2.6)mm Hg,1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa]in LTDOT group were obviously higher than those in control group[(0.72±0.38)L,(55.0±2.2)mm Hg],there were significant differences between two groups(P<0.01).FVC,PaCO2 in two groups were no significant difference(P>0.05).Quality of life in LTDOT group was better than that in control group,average emergency frequency[(2.3±1.2)times] and hospital day[(16.0±2.4)d]in LTDOT group were obviously decwatsed than those in control group [(5.2±1.3)times,(36.0±2.2)d](P<0.01).Conclusion For the patients with COPD paracmasis, LTDOT can increase FEVI,PaO2,elevate quality of life and decrease average emergency frequency and hospital day.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV)on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with type Ⅱ respiratory failure. Methods Seventy-six cases of COPD with type Ⅱ respiratory failure were randomly divided into two groups.All patients were treated with antibiotics and other coventional therapy, 6 hours of intravenous drop infusion coramine was added to the control group (38 cases) and 6 hours of NIPPV was added to the treatment group (38 cases). Vital signs and arterial blood gas analysis were evaluated. Results After 6 hours of treatment, blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and pH were significantly improved in the treatment group than those in the control group (P< 0.05 or < 0.01).Compared with the control group, there was a significant improvement of pH in the treatment group (P < 0.05). PaO2 increased [(81.7 ± 6.3) mm Hg (1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa) vs (50.6 ± 4.3) mm Hg, (67.6 ± 7.4) mm Hg vs (50.8 ± 5.2) mm Hg] and PaCO2 decreased [(49.6 ± 4.5) mm Hg vs (78.5 ± 10.4) mm Hg, (60.8 ± 6.1)mm Hg vs (76.8 ± 8.3) mm Hg] was found in both groups, the amplitudes of PaO2 and PaCO2 before and after treatment were more singnificant in the treatment group (P < 0.01). Conclusion NIPPV on COPD with type Ⅱ respiratory failure can improve clinical symptom and arterial blood gas analysis more significantly than conventional therapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of respiratory training on pulmonary function in the patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD). Methods A total of 74 patients with COPD were recruited and randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group with 37 subjects in each.The treatment group re-ceived respiratory training including lip-contracting breathing,abdominal breathing and breathing exercises for 6 months in addition to routine medical treatment.The control group received only routine medical treatment.Pulmona-ry function was evaluated before and after treatment. Results After treatment,both groups improved in terms of all the pulmonary function measures,showing increased vital capacity(VC),forced expiratory volume after 1 s(FEVl),peak forced expiratory flow rate(PEFR),as well as forced expiratory flow at 25%of Vcmax(V25),de-creased residual volume and residual volume as a percentage of total lung capacity(RV/TCL).The difference be-tween the two groups was significant with regard to the extent of improvement. Conclusion Respiratory training can improve the pulmonary function of COPD patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of exercise and respiratory training on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Methods Fifty-six patients were randomly divided into an observation group (with 30 subjects) and a control group (26 subjects). Both groups received routine medical treatment, while the observation group received movement exercise and respiratory training in addition. Results After 3 months of treatment, there were significant differences between the two groups in terms of the improvement in pulmonary function and quality of life. Conclusion Movement exercise and respiratory training can improve pulmonary function and the quality of life of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
