Abstract

Objective: to study the effect of continuous nursing intervention in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: In this paper, 56 COPD patients were selected and grouped by drawing lots, with 28 cases in each group. The study group underwent continuous nursing intervention, while the control group underwent conventional care, and the parameters of both groups of patients were compared. Results: Compared with the control group, the patients in the study group had a significantly higher forced expiratory volume in one second to forced vital capacity ratio (FEV1/FVC), a significantly lower COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score, and Hamilton Depression (HAM-D) score, and a significantly higher 6-Minute Walk Test (6WMT) score after nursing care. Besides, their self-care ability score and SaO2 were significantly higher, while their PaCO2 and coagulation indexes were significantly lower (P < 0.05). Conclusion:Continuous nursing intervention is beneficial for COPD patients.
