Improvement effect of continuous nursing intervention on survival quality in discharged patients with COPD

Objective To investigate the improvement effect of continuous nursing intervention on the survival quality of discharged patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods 82 patients with COPD in our hospital from January to December 2013 were selected and divided into the observation group and the control group according to the different nursing modes,41 cases in each group.The control group was given the routine therapeutical nursing care including respiratory stimulating agent,continuous low flow oxygen therapy,anti infection,unobstructed airway,transfusion and nutritional support,while the observation group received the continuous nursing intervention after discharge from hospital based on the control group.The times of cold and hospitalization,blood routine indexes after one years were followed up.The quality of life(QOL)assessment scale was adopted to evaluate the quality of life and the pulmonary function indexes after discharge from hospital.Results The times of cold and hospitalization,blood routine indexes after follow-up in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group(P0.05);the arterial blood gas analysis and pulmonary function indexes in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group(P0.05);the assessment indexes of survival quality such as the ability of daily life,social activities,depression and anxiety psychological symptoms in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group(P0.05).Conclusion The continuous nursing intervention after discharge in the patients with COPD can significantly improve the pulmonary function,delay the disease progression,elevate the survival quality and has the definite effect,which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
