Abstract
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate powder for inhalation combined ipratropium bromide aerosol in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods One hundred and twenty patients with stable COPD was randomly divided into control group and observation group with 60 patients each.The control group was received ipratropium bromide aerosol inhalation,and the observation group was given salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate powder for inhalation and ipratropium bromide aerosol for 6 months.BODE index,SGRQ scores,plasma cortisol and bone mineral density were compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results BODE index scores had no significant difference between two groups before treatment (P＞0.05).After treatment,BODE index scores,dyspnea scale,FEV1％,6MWD and BODE index total scores in observation group were superior to those in control group [ (1.9 ± 0.5) grades vs. (2.3 ± 0.5)grades,(58.5 ± 7.3)％ vs.(50.4 ± 6.2)％,(411.1 ± 56.8) m vs.(347.5 ± 60.4) m,(3.3 ± 1.0) scores vs.(3.8 ± 1.3 ) scores ],there were significant differences (P＜0.05 ).SGRQ scores had no significant difference between two groups before treatment (P＞0.05 ).After treatment and in SGRQ scores,respiration symptom,limitation of activity,disease influence scores in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group [ (20.7 ± 10.3 ) scores vs.(37.9 ± 14.4) scores,(20.7 ± 9.5 ) scores vs.(34.8 ± 13.0) scores,(16.3 ± 6.7) scores vs.(27.2 ± 11.8) scores,(17.5 ± 7.0) scores vs. (34.6 ± 12.3) scores],there were signiticant differences (P＜0.01 ).There were no significant difference of plasma cortisol and bone mineral density between two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusions Salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate powder for inhalation and ipratropium bromide aerosol in patients with stable COPD can greatly improve the lung function and life quality and with less adverse reaction. Key words: Pulmonary disease,chronic obstructive; Salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate; Ipratropium bromide aerosol
