Abstract

Objective To investigate the concentrations of serum N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pm BNP) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) of acute exacerbation of chronic obstrnctive pulmonary disease(AECOPD) patients treated by bi-level positive airway pressure(BiPAP) for with respiratory failure.Methods A total of 100 respiratory failure in patients with AECOPD were divided into study group and control group,and 50 cases of each group.Patients in study group were received the conventional treatment(anti infection,diastolic bronchial,cough and phlegm and oxygen therapy) combined with BiPAP therapy,while in control group were received the conventional treatment.Blood samples were drawn at beginning and 3 d later.Serum hs-CRP and NT-pro BNP levels were determined,and the expenses and duration of hospitalization of two groups were compared.Result After treatment,the level of serum NT-pro BNP in study group and control group were (105.79 ± 4.56) ng/L and (113.33 ± 3.26) ng/L,and the difference was statistically signifi cant (t =3.03,P < 0.05).The serum hs-CRP levels were (10.83 ± 16.35) mg/L and (26.39 ± 26.87) mg/L in study and control group,and the differences were statistically significant (t =-3.44,P < 0.05).The expenses and duration of hospitalization in study group were both less than those in control group((11.15 ± 1.86) d vs.(12.78±2.25) d;(6 659.11 ±1 609.49) yuan vs.(8 031.31 ±1 449.79) yuan;t=-3.87,-4.38;P <0.05).Conclusion Early BiPAP therapy in AECOPD patients with respiratory failure in patients is showed that NT-pro BNP and hs-CRP levels faster decrease and disease is recovery remission,which suggests that NTpro BNP or BNP for AECOPD patients and respiratory failure condition monitoring,clinical efficacy have some clinical value.
