Effect of Early Respiratory Exerciser Training on Respiratory Function of Patients with Hypoxemia after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To observe the efficacy of early pulmonary rehabilitation training on respiratory function of patients with hypox-emia after coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods From February, 2013 to September, 2016, 53 patients with hypoxemia after coronary ar-tery bypass grafting were randomly divided into control group (n=25) and observation group (n=28). Both of them received routine therapy, while the observation group received pulmonary rehabilitation training in addition. Results Three days after extubation, the forced expirato-ry volume in one second (FEV1) (measured) and FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t>3.590, P<0.01), while the level of PaO2 was higher (t=5.824, P<0.001); the FEV1 (measured), FEV1(measured/ predicted) and FEV1/FVC decreased in both groups (F>1.044, P<0.05). The hospital stay was shorter (t=―2.138, P=0.037). The level of PaO2 was the high-est one day after extubation among three time points in both groups (P<0.001). No significantly difference was observed in mechanical ven-tilation time and ICU stay between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Early respiratory exerciser training could improve the respiratory func-tion of patients with hypoxemia after coronary artery bypass grafting, shorten hospital stay.
