There are two ways to achieve this goal. Let's have a look.
For patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, it is most important to actively improve lung function and delay the development of the disease. Improving lung function and increasing vital capacity is beneficial to patients' condition, improving quality of life, improving prognosis and delaying development.
Undoubtedly, active exercise of respiratory function is a very good way to improve patients' lung function and increase their vital capacity.
Moreover, the exercise of lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has attracted more and more attention.
How to improve lung function and increase vital capacity through exercise? In two ways.
First, the exercise of respiratory function. There are many ways to exercise respiratory function, and the common ones are as follows.
(1) contraction lips breathing. It can prolong the expiration time and reduce the lung volume at the end of expiration.
The specific operation method refers to inhaling through the nose, keeping it for three seconds, blowing through the mouth like blowing candles, and exhaling slowly. Note that the time ratio of exhalation to inhalation is about 2: 1. Every exercise 10~20 minutes, twice a day.
② Abdominal breathing.
Take a semi-recumbent position or sitting position. Spread your legs and relax. Put one hand on your chest and one hand on your abdomen. Inhale through your nose and slowly bulge your abdomen. Pay attention to ensure that the abdominal movement is greater than the chest movement, keep it for a few seconds, and then spit it out slowly through your mouth. Abdominal breathing is repeated 8~ 10 times each time, 2~4 times a day.
③ Breathing gymnastics.
The second way is to do as much physical exercise as possible. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are obviously limited in physical labor and exercise because of the decline of respiratory function. Even in severe cases, daily life is obviously affected.
However, physical exercise is still needed.
If it wasn't for the acute attack of COPD, Physical exercise and exercise can not only exercise lung function and increase vital capacity, but also enhance physical fitness and reduce the chance of disease recurrence.
In addition, patients with COPD encourage their families to take oxygen for a long time. Long-term family oxygen therapy can not only improve the symptoms of hypoxia, but also help to improve the pulmonary respiratory function. In addition, encourage COPD to increase nutrition and supplement high-quality protein. It can help patients to strengthen their physique and improve their energy support when they have difficulty breathing. Thereby improving lung function. To sum up, the lung function of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is declining, and timely and effective lung function exercise can help patients enhance their lung function and increase their vital capacity, thus improving their quality of life, delaying the development of the disease and prolonging their lives. Here's what I think about this question. China is a big country with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Men over 55 years old have this chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. How do good people get this disease? I met a man in pulmonary hospital. He has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Her old lover hung antibiotic saline with him. I asked him how old he was and how he got the disease. He didn't say, I just pointed out that you have been smoking for more than 25 years, and her old lover was right to tell him not to smoke. He insisted on smoking. What did he say? If I don't smoke, I'm sure to get sick (ignorant). I asked him why he had chronic lung disease this time, and he said; I got the flu vaccine (ignorance), and later I asked him how you exercise your vital capacity in the morning with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and he told me; Increase the amount of exercise and run for more than an hour, I said; He said that a lot of exercise is not good; If you don't understand this disease, you need to do a lot of exercise. Later, I thought I should run moderately for about 30 minutes. 100 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 95 of whom smoked for 25 to 40 years. Please don't smoke.
Exercise method suitable for COPD 1
Abdominal breathing exercise refers to the patient's conscious deep breathing and slow breathing by bulging and contracting the abdomen, ten to fifteen minutes at a time, twice a day, so that after a period of exercise, the condition will recover.
There is also lip contraction breathing, inhaling through the nose, exhaling after lip contraction for four to six seconds, and training for ten to twenty minutes every day, twice a day. Through training, we can exercise airway strength and improve lung function. Respiratory function exercise has a very good effect on improving patients' condition, which can be seen in about three months.
2. Exercise of motor function
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease will suffer from hypoxia for a long time, so do moderate exercise, such as walking, which is suitable for most patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Patients can adjust slowly, moderately and quickly according to their physical condition, and the time should not be too long, which requires the oxygen consumption of patients. Patients insist on walking exercise every day, which has a good effect on improving vital capacity and lung function.
You can also do aerobic stretching, riding a bike, doing cardiopulmonary exercise, etc. , can effectively alleviate the patient's breathing difficulties.
In the treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, exercise helps to control the disease well. Reasonable exercise can also make patients recover faster and improve immunity and resistance.
