1、接受长效型吸入剂药物治疗慢性阻塞性肺病病人之成效分析Analysis of efficacy of treatment with longactive inhaled combination agents in chronicobstructive pulmonary disease patients中 文 摘 要慢性阻塞性肺病是引起呼吸道之慢性发炎,且疾病的进展是缓慢发展而造成气道阻塞,使之造成的肺脏及肺功能逐渐恶化,且伤害大多是不可逆性。在先进国家中,慢性阻塞性肺病在死亡原因中的第四位,根据世界卫生组织于 1990 年预估,2020 年它将会成为人类死亡原因第三位。台湾 40 岁以上成人,
2、平均每六人就有一人罹患中重度的慢性阻塞性肺病,盛行率达 16%。由于慢性阻塞性肺病患者数众多、其死亡率高,治疗慢性阻塞性肺病健保每年花费约 13 亿元,造成社会经济负担,盛行率及耗用的医疗资源都逐年上升,现已成为一个重要的公共卫生问题。根据 2007 年慢性阻塞性肺病诊治指引,依严重度逐渐增加治疗(step-up) 之策略,将疾病严重度分成四级,依据不同的病情变化给予适当之药物治疗;近年来,以长效型吸入剂药物用来治疗 COPD 为主流。故,藉此了解使用口服药物与使用长效型吸剂之病人两者做比较,是否因肺功能障碍而减缓肺功能衰退,进而增加门诊使用次数、急诊使用次数、延长住院天数。本研究收案时间为已
3、以收集 2008 年 09 月至 2009 年 08 月,共十二个月之门诊慢性阻塞性肺病病人,并排除标准为气喘病患和死亡病人。以接受长效型吸入剂治疗与使用口服药物之对照组病患两组,iii比较疾病严重度轻度、中度、重度、极重度、肺活量 FEV1(用力呼气一秒量)百分比之差异,对医疗利用累积住院日数、急诊次数、急性发作之影响。统计部分采用 SPSS 12.0 版套装软件,以描述性、推论性分析及强迫进入复回归分析预测变项进行分析。研究结果显示,使用吸剂病人中在用药前后肺功能之差异里,比使用口服药病人较佳。在使用口服药控制 COPD 之个案中,其疾病严重度为极重度个案中会影响累积住院日数情况;故,其功
4、能较差者日常生活活动受限,其住院天数就愈多天。由此可见使用长效型吸入剂病人,当提升会提高肺功能指标,对于 COPD 疾病的控制是有利的,并带给病人生活质量。有效的疾病管理会降低 COPD 病人再住院率,并提升医疗质量,以获得更大成效。关键字:慢性阻塞性肺病、疾病严重度、肺活量、长效型吸入剂、医疗利用ivAbstractChronic Obstruction Pulmonary Disease (i.e. COPD) is a preventableand treatable disease with some significant extra-pulmonary effects thatma
