Abstract:
Objective To observe the influence of smoking on lower airway bacterial colonization(LABC)in stable phase of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods 104 patients with moderate or severe COPD were divided into three groups:42 cases smoking continuously were divided into A group,36 cases quit smoking were B group,34 non-smoker were C group.Induced sputum were analyzed for quantitiative bacteriology and bacterial culture,pulmonary function was evaluated at begining and in two years later.Results Smokers has higher positive rate of LABC than non-smokers;patients in B group has significantly lower positive rate of bacterialculture in quit smoking 2 years late than before,and significantly lower than that in A group;bacterial colonization in A group and B group include Streptococcus pneumoniae,Haemophilus influenzae,Moraxella catarrhalis; patients in B group quit smoking 2 years late and patients in C group has significantly lower positive rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa,significantly decreased exacerbation frequency and decline of FEV1 than patients in A group.Conclusion Smoking increase positive rate of LABC in patients with moderate or severe COPD.Smoking is an important factor in deterioration of lung function in COPD.there is positive significance to quit smoking in patients with COPD.
