Abstract:

Objective

To explore the application effects of acetylcysteine effervescent tablets combined with tiotropium bromide inhalation on patients with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), so as to provide a method for the disease.

Methods

124 patients with COPD who were treated in the hospital were selected between April 2018 and October 2020 and were divided into 63 cases in observation group and 61 cases in control group. Control group was given tiotropium bromide inhalation and other conventional treatments, and observation group was combined with acetylcysteine effervescent tablets based on control group. The lung function indexes, blood gas indicators and levels of serum inflammatory factors were compared between the two groups before treatment and at 3 months of treatment. The airway limitation severity and dyspnea degree were compared between the two groups at 3 months of treatment.

Results

At 3 months of treatment, the FEV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC of the two groups were significantly enhanced compared with those before treatment, and the above indexes of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group (all P<0.05). The levels of serum IL-6, INF-γ and TNF-α were significantly reduced in the two groups compared to before treatment, and the levels of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group (all P<0.05). The PaO2 of observation group at 3 months of treatment was significantly higher compared with that of control group while the PaCO2 was significantly lower compared to control group (all P<0.05). The airflow limitation severity at 3 months of treatment was significantly milder in observation group than that in control group, and the dyspnea grading was significantly lower than that in control group (all P<0.05).

Conclusion

Acetylcysteine effervescent tablets combined with tiotropium bromide inhalation has a good application effect on patients with COPD.
