Application of a pulmonary rehabilitation exercise program based on IMB model in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Objective To explore the application and effect of a pulmonary rehabilitation exercise program in patients with moderate to severe COPD based on the Information-Motivation-Behavior Skill(IMB)Model.Methods The convenience sampling method was adopted to select patients with moderate to severe COPD admitted to the department of respiratory and critical care medicine in a tertiary A hospital in Yantai City from October 2021 to February 2022.They were randomly divided into an intervention group(32 cases)and a control group(31 cases).The intervention group was treated with the pulmonary rehabilitation exercise program based on the IMB model on the basis of routine nursing,while the control group was treated with routine nursing.The degree of dyspnea,exercise endurance,quality of life,pulmonary rehabilitation exercise compliance,self-management ability and lung function were compared between the 2 groups before and 6 months after the intervention.Results After intervention,the degree of dyspnea,exercise endurance,quality of life,pulmonary rehabilitation exercise compliance and self-management ability were significantly different between the 2 groups(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in lung function between the 2 groups after intervention(P>0.05).Conclusion The pulmonary rehabilitation program based on IMB model can effectively alleviate the symptoms of dyspnea in patients with moderate to severe COPD,improve exercise endurance,improve pulmonary rehabilitation exercise compliance and self-management ability,and improve the patients'quality of life.
