Abstract:
Objective To observe the influence of respiratory muscle training on quality of life and pulmonary function of patients with connective tissue diseases associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD). Methods A total of 120 patients with CTD-ILD from June 2011 to December 2012 were randomly classified into the control group and the observation group , with 60 cases in each group .The control group was treated with routine nursing care , while the observation group was treated with breathing exercises .The life quality between the two groups was compared using the 36-item short form health survey questionnaire ( SF-36 ) .The lung function, such as vital capacity (VC), total lung capacity (TLC) and diffusing capacity of CO (DLCO) before and after treatment, were recorded.Results After the respiratory muscle training , the scores of SF-36 in the observation group was significantly higher compared with those in the control group (t=2.52,3.42,7.93,4.33, 2.38, respectively;P<0.05).After the functional training of the respiratory muscles , VC, TL and DLCO/Pred in the observation group were (2.8 ±0.04)L, (3.0 ±0.06)L and (5.5 ±0.94)%, which were significantly better than (2.6 ±0.04)L, (2.8 ±0.03)L and (72.3 ±0.64)%in the control group (t=2.28,2.51,2.85, respectively;P<0.05).Conclusions Nursing intervention of airway management and functional training for the respiratory muscles can improve quality of life and pulmonary function of patients with CTD -ILD.
