Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of early respiratory function exercise on pulmonary function in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer after operation. Methods From October 2016 to October 2017, 80 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into an experiment group and a control group with 40 cases in each group, in accordance with the random number table. The patients in the control group were given routine postoperative nursing, and the patients in the experimental group were given early respiratory function exercise on the basis of routine nursing. Pulmonary function, stress reaction and postoperative hospital stay were compared between the patients of two groups. Results There were significant differences in forced vital capacity, peak expiratory flow rate, adrenocorticotropic hormone and C reactive protein of patients in the two groups at 7 d after operation (P<0.01) . The postoperative hospital stay in the experimental group was shorter than that in the control group (P<0.01) . Conclusions Early respiratory function exercise can improve the pulmonary function in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer after operation, reduce the postoperative stress reaction and shorten the patient's hospital stay, which is worthy of clinical application. Key words: Carcinoma, non-small-cell lung; Rehabilitation; Pulmonary function; Early respiratory function exercise
