Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of nocturnal oxygen therapy combined with tiotropium bromide on pulmonary function and quality of life in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and respiratory failure.Methods A total of 64 elderly patients with COPD and respiratory failure were selected.The 32 patients treated with conventional treatment and nocturnal oxygen therapies were designed as control group,and the otheR32 patients treated with nocturnal oxygen therapy and tiotropium bromide were designed as observation group.The clinical effect,pulmonary function and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results AfteRtreatment,the p(O2),p(CO2),score of MMRC and 6-minute walking distance in the observation group were significantly betteRthan the control group (P<0.05).Improvement of pulmonary function and total healthy score in the observation group were significantly betteRthan the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Nocturnal oxygen therapy combined with tiotropium bromide is effective in treatment of elderly patients with COPD and respiratory failure.
