Clinical observation on the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with Bufei Gushen Decoction and its effects on pulmonary function,immune level and nutritional status
Objective To explore the clinical effects of Bufei Gushen Decoction ip treating patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),and its impact on pulmonary function,immune level and nutritional status.Methods Eighty patients with COPD admitted to the Outpatient from October 2021to October 2023were divided into the observation group and the control group by random number table method,with 40cases in each group.Both groups were treated with conventional western medi-cines,the control group received treatment with budesonide and formoterol powder inhalation,and the observation group was addi-tionally treated with Bufei Gushen Decoction.All patients underwent 1 month of continuous treatment.Clinical effects,pulmonary function,immune levels,and nutritional status in the two groups were compared.Results After 1 month of treatment,the total ef-fective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).The scores for main symp-toms and secondary symptoms,and total traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).Forced expiratory volume in 1s(FEV1),forced vital capacity(FCV),peak ex-piratory flow(PEF),and FEV1/FCV in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group,and CD8+was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The levels of albumin(ALB)and transferrin(TF)in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Bufei Gushen Decoction is effective in the treatment COPD.It can improve the patients'clinical symptoms,pulmonary function,immune function,and nutritional status.
