The study shined spotlight on the effect of respiratory rehabilitation training on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which was evaluated using speckle ultrasound algorithm-based cardiac ultrasound. Then, 90 patients with stable COPD, who were admitted to the hospital from January 2018 to December 2019, were randomly rolled into three groups, namely, the fast inhalation and slow exhalation (A) group, abdominal breathing (B) group, and control (C) group. For group A, on the basis of the conventional treatment, the method of rapid inhalation and slow exhalation was adopted. The group B (n = 30) adopted the abdominal breathing method besides the conventional treatment. In addition, the group C (n = 30) received only conventional treatment. Finally, the efficacy and parameters of the three treatment methods were compared. The echocardiographic parameters and echocardiographic images were calculated and processed by the speckle tracking method. Three kinds of operators were used to track the myocardial spots successfully, and the corresponding points in the image were obtained and calculated. It was found that there was no significant difference in the degree of dyspnea, exercise endurance, lung function, respiratory muscle function, and quality of life (QOL) before treatment P > 0.05 . After treatment, in contrast with group C, the previously mentioned indicators in groups A and B were obviously better P < 0.05 . Further, both the echocardiographic images and echocardiographic parameters of groups A and B were obviously improved, and there was no obvious difference between groups A and B. Hence, some degree of respiratory rehabilitation was very effective in the diagnosis of patients with chronic pulmonary obstruction. In conclusion, the speckle tracking algorithm-based cardiac ultrasound improves the image quality. At the same time, respiratory rehabilitation training is effective on COPD and worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective. This study intended to systematically evaluate the effectiveness and safety of modified Dachengqi Decoction (MDD) combined with conventional treatment for treating acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).Method. An extensive search was performed within 6 English and Chinese electronic databases from inception to April 2012. Methodological quality was assessed according to Cochrane risk of bias assessment. Data were analyzed using Review Manager 5.1.Results. A total of 16 studies (involving 1112 patients) were included. The result showed that MDD and its modification combined with routine treatment were more effective in improving FEV1%pred, enhancing the significant effectiveness, reducing PCO2, and shortening duration of mechanical ventilation. Adverse events were reported in two trials with symptom of diarrhea, while no serious adverse effect was reported.Conclusion. Modified Dachengqi Decoction appears to be effective for treating AECOPD. However, more regular designed RCTs are needed because of insufficient methodological problems.

This study analyzed the pathophysiological impacts of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) on the respiratory system and the benefits of kinesiotherapeutic interventions on diaphragmatic mobility in patients affected by COPD. Systematic literature review carried out in the Scielo, Medline, VHL, Lilacs and PEDro databases, using the following keywords: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Respiratory Rehabilitation, Kinesitherapeutic Interventions and Diaphragmatic Dysfunction. Only original articles published between 2009 and 2019, about the benefits of different respiratory physical therapy intervention programs were included. Two examiners analyzed the qualities and evidence of the articles using the PEDro scale. Twelve manuscripts make up the discussion of this work. The present study confirms the beneficial effects of different Kinesiotherapy Intervention programs on physical health and quality of life, reduction of respiratory symptoms and risk of mortality, increased mobility of the rib cage, diaphragmatic functionality, functional capacity and respiratory muscle strength of patients affected by COPD.Keywords: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, respiratory rehabilitation, kinesiotherapeutic interventions, diaphragmatic dysfunction.
