Effects of Supervised Periodical Exercise Programs on Maintaining Functional Exercise Capacity and Quality of Life after Pulmonary Rehabilitation in COPD

Objective To determine if supervised hospital-based exercise can maintain the benefits of functional exercise ability and quality of life gained from a pulmonary rehabilitation program in COPD.Methods A prospective and randomized study was carried out. Following completion of an eight-week pulmonary rehabilitation program in hospital, 43 COPD patients were recruited and randomized into either a supervised group ( supervised, every 10 days, hospital-based exercise, 22 cases ) or a control group ( unsupervised home exercise,21 cases) and followed for 12 months. Measurements were taken at baseline and 12 months later. Exercise measurements include six-minute walk test( 6MWT) and pulmonary function test. Quality of life was measured using the Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire ( CRQ) . Results After 12 months of different exercise program,6MWT in the supervised group was significantly longer than that in the unsupervised group[ ( 532. 0 ±168. 4) m vs ( 485. 0 ±151. 6) m, P lt; 0. 05] . There was no significant difference in pulmonary function between the two groups. The quality of life of the supervised group was higher than that of the unsupervised group( 114. 6 ±20. 8 vs 105. 6 ±21. 7, P lt;0. 05) . Conclusions After the completion of pulmonary rehabilitation program, a supervised, every 10 days, hospital-based following exercise program can maintain better functional exercise capacity and quality of life compared to home exercise in COPD patients.

EFFECT OF SENSORY DISTURBANCE ON LIVING QUALITY AFTER A SAGITTAL SPLIT RAMUS OSTEOTOMY

Objective To evaluate the effect of sensory disturbance after the sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO）on quality of life. Methods From September2004 to September 2005, 21 patients undergoing SSRO were studied by using questionnaires. There were 12 males and 9 females, aging 1927 years(mean 22.6 years).The patients were followed up at 4 weeks and 24 weeks after operation. The subjective questionnaire was completed by patient to evaluate the degree of living quality descending. Results At 4 weeks,19(90.48%) patients’ living quality descended because of postoperative sensory disturbance. Among them, 7(33.33%) patients had severe descending of living quality. The average effecting time of living accounted for total time 26.9%(about 6.5 h/d). At 24 weeks, 12(6316%) patients’ living quality descended because of postoperative sensory disturbance, 7(36.84%) patients could achieve preoperative living quality. The average effecting time of living accounted for total time 15.5%(about 3.7 h/d). Conclusion Most patients have descending of living quality after SSRO because of sensory disturbance. However, this condition can be improved during the followup and more than 1/3 patients canachieve their preoperative living quality.

Correlation between readiness for hospital discharge and short-term quality of life in colorectal cancer patients following enhanced recovery after surgery mode

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between readiness for hospital discharge and short-term quality of life among colorectal cancer (CRC) patients following enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) mode.MethodsSurveys of 127 CRC patients following ERAS mode were conducted in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University. The Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale and EORTC QLQ-C30 Scale were issued at the discharge and 1 month after the operation, respectively.ResultsThe total score of RHDS was 149.43±33.25. The score of global quality of life was 66.80±18.84. Correlation analysis showed that the total score of RHDS was positively correlated with the score of global quality of life (r=0.220, P=0.013), and negatively correlated with the scores of fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, loss of appetite (r=–0.304, P=0.001; r=–0.189, P=0.033; r=–0.257, P=0.004; r=–0.254, P=0.004). The score of personal status dimension were positively correlated with the score of global quality of life and emotional function (r=0.213, P=0.016; r=0.197, P=0.027), and negatively correlated with scores of fatigue, pain and insomnia (r=–0.311, P=0.000; r=–0.264, P=0.003; r=–0.257, P=0.004). The score of knowledge dimension was negatively correlated with nausea and vomiting, pain and loss of appetite (r=–0.212, P=0.017; r=–0.182, P=0.040; r=–0.239, P=0.007). The score of coping ability dimension was positively correlated with the score of global quality of life and physical function (r=0.204, P=0.021; r=0.204, P=0.021), while negatively correlated with scores of fatigue, pain, insomnia and loss of appetite (r=–0.349, P=0.000; r=–0.240, P=0.007; r=–0.202, P=0.022; r=–0.201, P=0.024). The score of expected support was positively correlated with the score of global quality of life (r=0.220, P=0.013), and negatively correlated with scores of fatigue and loss of appetite (r=–0.249, P=0.005; r=–0.227, P=0.010).ConclusionsThe short term quality of life among CRC patients following ERAS keeps at upper middle level, and positively correlated with the readiness for hospital discharge. It is suggested that discharge preparation service is of great significance to improve the quality of life of patients.

The status quo of postoperative pain management in patients with pulmonary disease after discharge

ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of outpatient pain management in patients with pulmonary disease after surgery by WeChat and to provide a basis for postoperative pain management.MethodsA total of 449 patients who underwent thoracic surgery in our hospital from December 2017 to May 2018 were enrolled, including 156 males and 293 females with an average age of 22-83 (55.54±11.17) years. Brief Pain Inventory was adopted for pain assessment in 24-48 hours after discharge and 24 hours after removal of from the wound.ResultsTotally 98.22% of the patients reported that they suffered from pain in 24-48 h after discharge, most pain position was still at drainage port (45.21%), the overall pain score was 2.75 (2.00, 3.25) points, and 82.85% of patients adopted physical methods to relieve pain. After removal of stitches at the drainage port, 79.29% of the patients suffered from pain, the pain site was mainly at the drainage port (47.88%), and the overall pain score was 1.75 (1.25, 2.25) points, and 73.94% of patients adopted physical methods to relieve pain. The score of the overall influence degree of pain on patients was 2.29 (1.86, 2.86) points and 1.86 (1.29, 2.43) points, while pain had the greatest influence on sleep and mood. The scores were 4.00 (3.00, 5.00) points, 3.00 (2.00, 4.00) points and 2.00 (1.00, 4.00) points, 3.00 (2.00, 4.00) points, respectively.ConclusionUnder the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery, the overall pain level of patients with pulmonary disease after discharge is mild pain, but the application rate of drug analgesia in patients is low. The overall effect of pain on postoperative patients with lung cancer is low, but it has a great impact on sleep and mood. Medical staff should strengthen the pain education for patients in order to improve their pain self-management ability.

Efficacy of Tai Chi on patients with heart failure: a systematic review

ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of Tai Chi on patients with heart failure.MethodsDatabases including CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data, Web of Science, PubMed, EMbase and The Cochrane Library (Issue 8, 2016) were searched from inception to August, 2016 to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Tai Chi for heart failure patients. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 10 RCTs involving 689 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the control group, the heart failure patients in Tai Chi group had better score of minnesotaliving with heart failure questionnaire (MLHFQ) (MD=–9.37, 95%CI –13.09 to –5.65, P<0.000 01), longer six minute walk test (6MWT) (MD=40.37, 95%CI 9.48 to 71.27, P=0.01), higher left ventricular ejectionfractions (LVEF) (MD=7.89, 95%CI 3.01 to 12.77, P=0.002) and lower level of BNP (brain natriuretic peptide) (MD=–10.75, 95%CI –13.20 to –8.30, P<0.000 01); however, as to the maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) (MD=0.29, 95%CI –1.223 to 1.81, P=0.71), systolic pressure (SBP) (MD=–2.81, 95%CI –8.52 to 2.90, P=0.33) and diastolic pressure (DBP) (MD=0.37, 95%CI –3.73 to 4.48, P=0.86), there were no significant differences between both groups.ConclusionThe current evidence shows that Tai Chi is feasible for patients with heart failure as it has positive effects on life quality, physiological functions. Due to the limited quality and quantity of included studies, the above conclusion should be validated by more high quality studies.

Quality of life in patients after minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting surgery versus off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery: A propensity score matching study

ObjectiveTo compare and analyze the postoperative quality of life in patients after minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (MICABG) and conventional median thoracotomy off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (OPCABG). MethodsFrom November 2015 to January 2018, 94 patients who underwent MICABG in the Peking University Third Hospital were included in the MICABG group. During the same period 441 patients who received OPCABG were included in the OPCABG group. The patients were matched by using propensity score matching method with a ratio of 1∶1. The quality of life was compared between two groups at 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after the surgery using SF-36 scale. ResultsA total of 82 patients were matched for each group. In the MICABG group, there were 66 males and 16 females with a mean age of 62.6±8.2 years. In the OPCABG group, there were 67 males and 15 females with a mean age of 63.2±13.2 years. One month after the operation, the physical health assessment (PCS) and mental health assessment (MCS) of the MICABG group were higher than those of the OPCABG group (50.3±10.6 points vs. 46.1±10.3 points, P=0.011; 59.5±9.3 points vs. 54.2±11.0 points, P=0.002). Scores of these following five dimensions: general health, physical functioning (PF), role-physical, social functioning (SF), role-emotion in the MICABG group were higher than those in the OPCABG group, while the score of body pain was inferior to that in the OPCABG group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Six months after the surgery, the PCS and MCS of the two groups were not statistically different (80.0±13.1 points vs. 77.8±12.4 points, P=0.271; 81.6±13.5 points vs. 80.4±11.2 points, P=0.537). However, the scores of PF and SF in the MICABG group were still higher than those in the OPCABG group (P<0.05). Twelve months after the surgery, there was no statistical difference in the score of each dimension between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionThe improvement of quality of life within 6 months after MICABG is better than that of OPCABG, and it is similar between the two groups at 12 months after the surgery, indicating that MICABG has a certain effect of improving the short-term quality of life after the surgery, and the long-term quality of life is comparable to conventional surgery.

Temperature-Controlled Self-heated Pain Relief Plaster for Chronic Nonspecific Lower Back Pain: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of temperature-controlled self-heated pain relief plasters in the treatment of chronic nonspecific lower back pain, and to investigate the quality of life of patients. MethodsPatients with chronic nonspecific lower back pain were randomly divided into a trial group and a control group. The trial group was treated with temperature-controlled self-heated pain relief plasters, while the control group was treated with meloxicam tablets for oral use. The outcome measures including the visual analogue pain scale (VAS), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) scores for the management of lower back pain, and Oswestry disability index (ODI score) were collected before treatment and after 6-month follow-up. SPSS 13.0 software was used for statistical analysis. ResultsA total of 96 patients was included (48 patients in each group), of which 68 patients (36 in the trial group and 32 in the control group) completed the treatment. The results of intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses showed that the total effectiveness rate of the trial group was higher than that of the control group with significant differences (all P values < 0.05). Compared with those before treatment, the JOA scores and ODI scores of the two groups were all improved after 6-month follow-up (all P values < 0.05). But no significant difference was found between the two groups in the two scores after 6-month follow-up (all P values > 0.05). During the follow-up, there were 3 and 8 patients with recurrence of lower back pain in the trial group and the control group, respectively. ConclusionThe clinical effect of temperature-controlled self-heated pain relief plasters in the treatment of chronic nonspecific lower back pain is satisfactory, the quality of life of patients is improved obviously, and the therapy is simple, safe, inexpensive, and worthy of clinical promotion.
