Abstract

Clinical effect of adjuvant therapy with bronchoalveolar lavage on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients complicated with pneumonia and its influence on the expression levels of inflammatory factors were studied. One hundred and twenty mild-moderate COPD patients complicated with pneumonia treated in the Department of Respiratory Medicine, The Sixth People's Hospital of Nantong from February 2016 to February 2017 were selected and randomly divided into three groups: One-time lavage group (n=40), two‑time lavage group (n=40) and control group (n=40). Fasting peripheral blood was collected from all the patients in the morning. The lung function and blood gas analyses, and the detection of peripheral white blood cells (WBC), procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were performed. Moreover, the messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in lavage fluid were detected via reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The lung functions of patients in the two-time lavage group were significantly improved compared with that in the one-time lavage group (p<0.01). pH and PaO2 in two-time lavage group were higher than those in the one-time lavage group (p<0.01). Peripheral WBC, PCT and CRP levels in the two‑time lavage group were lower than those in the one-time lavage group (p<0.05). The mRNA levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α and LTB4 in lavage fluid in two-time lavage group were lower than those in one-time lavage group (p<0.01). IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α and LTB4 expression levels in lavage fluid in two-time lavage group were lower than those in one-time lavage group (p<0.01). In conclusion, the adjuvant therapy with bronchoalveolar lavage improves the therapeutic effect on COPD patients complicated with pneumonia, which can significantly reduce the expression levels of inflammatory factors, and facilitate the control of pulmonary infection and recovery of lung function.
