A retrospective analysis of the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease by Dingchuan Decoction combined with acupoint application
Objective To retrospectively analyze the value of Dingchuan Decoction combined with acupoint application in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Methods A total of 120 patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease diagnosed in the Third Affiliated People's Hospital of Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2022 to March 2024 were selected.They were divided into two groups(with 60 patients in each group)with reference to different treatments.The control group was treated with western medicines,and the observation group was treated with Dingchuan Decoction combined with acupoint application.The clinical efficacy,lung function indicators and inflammatory factor levels were compared between the two groups.Results The total clinical efficacy was higher in the observation group than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).Levels of inflammatory factors including white blood cell count,C-reactive protein,and neutrophil percentage were lower in the observation group than those in the control group after treatment,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Lung function indicators including forced vital capacity(FVC),forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1),and the FEV1/FVC level were higher in the observation group than those in the control group after treatment,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion The treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with Dingchuan Decoction combined with acupoint application shows significant effects,with improvement in the lung function of patients and significant decrease in the level of inflammatory factors,which can be learned from and promoted clinically.
