Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death and disability in most countries of the world and causes significant economic costs for the treatment and rehabilitation of patients. The problem of COPD has acquired not only medical, but also socio-economic importance, since the disease affects not only the patient’s life, disrupting his working capacity and reducing the quality of life, but also his family members.

The aim of the work – to study the effectiveness of the influence of the proposed method of physical rehabilitation on the quality of life of patients with moderate COPD.

Material and Methods. The study involved 78 patients with COPD of moderate severity, which were divided into two groups by randomization. Patients of the control group were treated and rehabilitated according to the generally accepted method, and patients of the main group received treatment according to the same protocol and rehabilitation according to the proposed method.

Results. The use of standard treatment and physical rehabilitation in patients with moderate COPD leads to a significant improvement in the quality of life. According to the results of physical rehabilitation in the main group, there is a statistically significantly greater growth dynamics of the difference between the values after and before rehabilitation. After the application of the proposed physical rehabilitation program for each patient with COPD, we observed an increase in the overall quality of life and health due to an increase in indicators in problem subspheres.

Conclusions. The use of physical rehabilitation can significantly improve the quality of life of patients, significantly affecting the psycho-emotional sphere. A significant (p<0.05) increase in the overall quality of life and the state of health of patients with COPD of moderate severity of the female sex of the main group occurred in all spheres and the subsphere of the quality of life, except for the spiritual.
