Abstract

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of Yiyuan Pingchuan Decoction combined with ultra-low frequency combined with physiological frequency electrical stimulation on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in stable phase. Method: 89 patients were randomly divided into control group (44 cases)and observation group (45 cases). The control group was treated with conventional western medicine, while the observation group was treated with ultra-low frequency combined with physiological frequency electrical stimulation and Yiyuan Pingchuan Decoction on the basis of the control group. The 6-minute walking score (6MWT), SGRQ score, Borg fatigue score, lung function, and clinical efficacy after 30 days were observed at day 15 and day 30, respectively. Results: The 6MWT, SGRQ score, Borg fatigue score and lung function were improved more significantly in observation group than those in control group (p<0.05). The total effective rate of observation group (91.1%) was significantly higher than that of control group (79.5%) (p<0.05). Conclusion: Yiyuan Pinghuan Decoction combined with ultra-low frequency combined physiological frequency electrical stimulation can significantly improve the 6MWT, SGRQ score, Borg fatigue score and lung function of patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, improve clinical efficacy, and then improve the quality of life of patients, so as to improve the clinical prognosis of patients.
