Effect of Continuous Oxygen Driven Atomization Inhalation Therapy on Elderly Bedridden Patients
Objective:To analyze the effect of continuous oxygen driven atomization inhalation therapy on elderly bedridden patients.Method:A total of 120 elderly bedridden patients treated in Guangzhou Steel New City Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were selected.They were randomly divided into control group and observation group,60 cases in each group.The control group received ultrasonic atomization inhalation,and the observation group received atomization inhalation driven by continuous oxygen.Lung function,blood gas index,respiratory function before and after treatment,sputum output and incidence of hypostatic pneumonia were compared between the two groups.Result:After treatment,forced expiratory volume in the first second(FEV1)and forced vital capacity(FVC)in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2)in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,and the arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2)and the blood oxygen saturation(SaO2)were higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2)of the two groups was higher than that before treatment,and inhaled oxygen concentration(FiO2)was lower than that before treatment,the PaO2/FiO2 of the observation group was higher than that of the control group,and FiO2 was lower than that of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The sputum output of the observation group was better than that of the control group,and the incidence of hypostatic pneumonia was lower than that of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:In elderly bedridden patients,continuous oxygen-driven atomization inhalation can effectively prevent the occurrence of hypostatic pneumonia,and the lung function level of patients is significantly improved,and the blood gas index tends to normal level.
