Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of lung rehabilitation practice on the quality of life and pulmonary function of chemotherapy patients with lung cancer in low lung function. Methods From October 2016 to October 2017, 90 patients with lung cancer in low lung function who were undertaking chemotherapy regularly in the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University were randomly divided into control group and observation group, with 45 cases in each group. The patients of both the groups were given chemotherapy nursing and health education, while the observation group received pulmonary rehabilitation intervention on the basis of routine nursing. The quality of life and pulmonary function of the patients in the two groups were compared before and 4 weeks after the intervention. Results Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in the quality of life and pulmonary function between the two groups (P＞ 0.05). After 4 weeks' intervention, the total score and the score of each dimension of the life quality scale of the observation group were all better than those of the control group, while the BODE index (Body-mass index, airflow Obstruction, Dyspnea, and Exercise) was lower than that of the control group. All the differences were statistically significant (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions Pulmonary rehabilitation is an effective way to improve the quality of life and lung function of lung cancer patients with low lung function during chemotherapy, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
