Abstract:
This study was aimed to analyze the therapeutic effect of Shu-lung post with different stimula-tion intensities on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), in order to determine the best stimulus intensity. A multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial was designed to take COPD patients at stable stage as study sub-jects. Patients were randomly divided into two groups, which were the foaming group and non-foaming group. The application was given 10 days before the summer dog days, on the 1st, 10th and 20th day within the dog days, and 10 days after the dog days. The results showed that a total of 164 cases were enrolled in the study, with 18 drop-out cases, and 146 cases fitted in the program. There was statistical difference on acute exacerbation frequency
after treatment between the foaming group and non-foaming group (P < 0.05). There were statistical differences on clinical symptoms and signs of total score (P< 0.01) during the 8-month follow-up. It was concluded that Shu-lung post with different stimulation intensities were positively correlation with clinical efficacy.
