Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of nursing intervention for respiratory function exercise in patients with silicosis complicated by stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) .
Methods:A total of 60 patients with silicosis complicated by stable COPD who were hospitalized in Department of Occupational Diseases, Laigang Hospital Affiliated to Taishan Medical College, from August 2017 to April 2018 were enrolled and randomly divided into control group and observation group, with 30 patients in each group. The patients in the control group were given routine treatment and respiratory function exercise, and those in the observation group were given nursing intervention in addition to the treatment in the control group. The two groups were compared in terms of pulmonary function, blood gas parameters, and six-minute walk distance before intervention and after 2 months of intervention.
Results:After intervention, the observation group had significantly higher forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) , forced vital capacity (FVC) , arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) , and six-minute walk distance than the control group (P<0.05) , while there were no significant differences between the two groups in FEV1/FVC and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (P>0.05) .
Conclusion:Nursing intervention can effectively improve FEV1, FVC, PaO2, and 6-minute walking distance in patients with silicosis complicated by stable COPD.
