To investigate the effect of exercise therapy on activity of daily living (ADL) and lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
A total of 122 patients with moderate to severe COPD received routine treatment.The patients were divided into 2 groups randomly. Sixty-two patients in the experimental group received respiratory training on the basis of respiratory pathophysiology and aerobic exercise for 1 year. Medical research council scale (MRC) score, ADL score, 6-min walking distance, and lung function were measured.
The MRC grade after the exercise therapy was lower than that before the exercise therapy in the experimental group (P<0.01) and the control group (P<0.05). The ADL score and 6-min walking distance increased compared with that before the respiratory training (P<0.05).After the respiratory training, the ADL score and 6-min walking distance had significant difference between the experimental group and the control group (P<0.05).
Long term and individual exercise therapy can relieve dyspnea, and improve the exercise tolerance and quality of life in COPD patients.
探讨运动疗法对慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者日常生活活动能力(ADL)及肺功能的影响。
122例中重度COPD患者接受常规治疗,随机分为两组。实验组62例患者在呼吸病理生理学基础上接受呼吸训练及有氧运动1年,测量医学研究委员会量表(MRC)评分、ADL评分、6分钟步行距离及肺功能。
实验组运动疗法后的MRC分级低于运动疗法前(P<0.01),对照组运动疗法后的MRC分级低于运动疗法前(P<0.05)。与呼吸训练前相比,ADL评分及6分钟步行距离增加(P<0.05)。呼吸训练后,实验组与对照组的ADL评分及6分钟步行距离有显著差异(P<0.05)。
长期个体化运动疗法可缓解COPD患者呼吸困难,提高运动耐力及生活质量。
