Abstract

Respiratory tract diseases emerge as a significant global health concern accompanying the aging process. Among the escalating chronic conditions associated with aging, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) stands out as a notable concern due to its high disease burden, mortality, and morbidity rates, necessitating intervention. The indispensability of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry (CLP) in averting, treating, and rehabilitating psychosocial predicaments encountered by individuals remains indisputable. Individuals with COPD and their families face challenges spanning social, economic, psychological, physical, and healthcare access domains. A scrutiny of studies reveals that evidence-based efforts by healthcare professionals targeting psychosocial challenges faced by COPD-afflicted individuals pivot towards enhancing problem management. This article particularly examines psychosocial interventions for COPD patients over the past five years. The identified studies emphasize interventions focusing on domiciliary medical support, exercise routines, self-management, psychological comorbidities, and the improvement of life quality, thereby underscoring the cardinal importance of physical activity in augmenting mental well-being. Ultimately, the conducted research has been analyzed through the prism of evidence-based practice to profoundly comprehend the ramifications of psychosocial interventions for COPD patients. Such research endeavors have been deemed to hold pivotal significance in enhancing patients' quality of life and optimizing treatment outcomes.
