Effect of rehabilitation exercises at varying frequencies on exercise endurance,lung function,and quality of life in COPD patients
Objective To explore the effects of rehabilitation exercises at varying frequencies on exercise endurance,lung function,and quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods A total of 98 COPD patients admitted to our hospital from September 2021 to August 2022 were selected and divided into the control group(49 cases)and observation group(49 cases)according to different treatment plans.Patients in the control group received routine treatment,while those in the observation group received rehabilitation exercises at varying frequencies.Changes in exercise endurance(6-min walking test[6MWT]and the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion[BRPE]),lung function(forced vital capacity[FVC],forced expiratory volume within the first second[FEV1]and FEV1/FVC),and blood gas analysis(partial pressure of oxygen[PO2],oxygenation index and partial carbon dioxide[PCO2])before and after treatment were compared.Patients were followed up for 3 months to compare the quality of life between the two groups.Results After treatment,patients in both groups presented significantly longer 6MWT and lower BRPE score than those before treatment,which were more pronounced in the observation group(P<0.05).After treatment,patients in both groups presented significantly improved lung function and blood gas than those before treatment,which were more pronounced in the observation group(both P<0.05).After treatment,the quality of life was significantly better in the observation group than that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Rehabilitation exercises at varying frequencies for elderly COPD patients can improve exercise endurance,respiratory function,and quality of life in elderly COPD patients.
