Objective Exploring the application effect of fragmented resistance exercise in the exercise rehabili-tation of elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,providing references for improving their quality of life.Methods From October to December 2024,96 elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease admitted to a tertiary hospital in Pingdingshan city were conveniently selected as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group(all n=48)using a random number table method.The experimental group received a fragmented resistance exercise program on the basis of routine pulmonary reha-bilitation,while the control group received routine pulmonary rehabilitation nursing care for a duration of 3 months.The lung function,exercise endurance,quality of life,and exercise compliance were compared between the 2 groups before and after intervention.Results The experimental group ultimately included 46 cases,while the control group ultimately included 47 cases.The lung function of the experimental group was better than that of the control group after 3 months of intervention(P＜0.05),and the exercise compliance scores of the experimental group were high-er than those of the control group after 1 and 3 months of intervention(P＜0.001).Repeated measures ANOVA showed that there was an interaction effect(P＜0.05)in the comparison of exercise endurance and quality of life between the 2 groups.Simple effects analysis showed that the experimental group had better exercise endurance after 3 months of intervention than the control group(P＜0.05),and better quality of life after 1 and 3 months of intervention than the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Fragmented resistance exercise can effectively improve lung function,enhance exercise endurance and compliance,and improve quality of life in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pul-monary disease.
