| Objectives: To investigate the effectiveness of perioperative-period pulmonary rehabilitation training on postoperative complication rate and recovery of lung function in elderly patients with lung cancer.Methods: Forty cases of lung cancer patients with lung cancer surgery at Jiangsu provincial people’s hospital between October 2016 and June 2017 were randomly divided into two groups,each group 20.Both groups treat with conventional thoracic surgery treatment,after all,the experimental group add admission education and systematic pulmonary rehabilitation training including 5 days` pre-pulmonary-rehab before surgery and 3 days` pulmonary-rehab after surgery.Evaluation of FEV1,FVC,FEV1/FVC%,PEF,6MWT,cough-strength-score for each groups at beginning and 1month after surgery.Recording the occurrence rate of pulmonary infection or respiratory failure or atelectasis for each groups,also the post operation hospitalization duration results.Result: The baseline data were similar in both groups(p>0.05),while significant differences were detected between baseline and endpoint(p<0.001)except FEV1/FVC%(p>0.05).The patients in the experimental group had fewer complications and shorter postoperative hospitalization than the control group(p<0.05).1 month after surgery,all parameters of lung function were significantly higher than the control group(p<0.001).Conclusions: Elderly lung cancer patients with perioperative pulmonary rehabilitation training can effectively reduce the incidence of complications and promote lung function recovery. |
