老年COPD患者的自我评估、疾病认知及护理需求的研究进展
Research Progress on Self-Assessment, Disease Cognition, and Nursing Needs of Elderly COPD Patients

慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)是一种肺部的常见疾病，其主要特征是气流受限，严重危害人们的健康，其具有较高的发病率、致残率与病死率。慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)会直接影响患者的肺功能，但是，当前很多研究者发现慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)也会引起其他系统的病变，比如肺性脑病、心血管疾病与认知损害等。衡量神经心理变化、脑缺血敏感指标之一就是认知功能的变化。本文探讨了老年慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者的自我评估、疾病认知及护理需求的研究进展。
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disease of the lung. Its main feature is airflow restriction, which seriously endangers people’s health. It has a high incidence rate, disability and mortality. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can directly affect the lung function of patients, but many researchers have found that COPD can also cause lesions in other systems, such as pulmonary encephalopathy, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive impairment. One of the sensitive indicators for measuring neuropsychological changes and cerebral ischemia is the change in cognitive function. This article explores the research progress on self-assessment, disease cognition, and nursing needs of elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
