The clinical effects of long-term domiciliary oxygen therapy and pulmonary rehabilization program on the patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of long-term domiciliary oxygen therapy (LDOT)in accompany with pummonary rehabilization program on the patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods Seventy two COPD cases receiving LDOT treatment were randomized into treatment group and control group.The patients in control group were given LDOT alone,while the treatment group was given pulmonary rehabilization besides LDOT.Lung functions,arterial blood gas parameters and blood rheological parameters were compared between the two groups 2 years after the observation.Results The follow-up period lasted for 1 - 2 years.The frequency of acute exageration in the treatment group ( 3.0 ± 1.3 ) was significantly lower than that of control group (4.0 ± 1.6) ( t =1.893,P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared with that of control group,the FEV1([1.59±0.08]L vs.[1.41 ±0.13]L,t =-3.966,P ＜0.01),FVC ([2.47 ±0.20]L vs.[2.27 ±0.17]L,t=-2.788,P＜0.05),FEV1％ ([2.47±0.20]％ vs.[2.27±0.17]L,t=-4.402,P＜0.01) and PaO2 ( [79.1 ± 8.9 ] kPa vs.[ 60.0 ± 6.6 ] kPa,t =- 4.622,P ＜ 0.01 ) were significantly increased,while plasma viscosity ( [ 2.14 ± 0.31] mPa · s vs.[ 2.44 ± 0.45 ] mPa · s,t =1.985,P ＜ 0.05 ),Low shear blood viscosity ( [ 13.48 ± 1.97 ] mPa · s vs.[ 14.33 ± 1.87 ] mPa · s,t =2.126,P ＜ 0.05 ),median shear whole blood viscosity( [ 6.33 ± 0.66 ] mPa · s vs.(7.92 ± 0.98 ) mPa · s,t =4.238,P ＜ 0.01 ),high shear whole blood viscosity ([4.58 ±0.59] mPa · s vs.[5.33 ±0.68]mPa · s,t =0.3890,P ＜0.01) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( [ 30.63 ± 5.76 ] mm/1 h vs.[ 35.63 ± 6.925 ] mm/1 h,t =2.230,P ＜ 0.05 ) was greatly decrease.Conclusion Long-term domiciliary oxygen therapy in company with pulmonary rehabilization program is helpful to improve the lung function,arterial blood gas parameters and rheological status of COPD patients.
