Introduction: COPD is the commonest sequela of exposure to chemical
agents, especially mustard gas.
Materials and methods: This is a pre experimental study whose case and
control groups are the same. This study has been done to
investigate the effect of implementation of partnership Care Modle
on the quality of life of the chemical victims suffering from COPD in
Sasan hospital in Tehran. A physician confirmed COPD and the
ability of self-care for patients.
Results: we studied 60 patients aging between 30 and 54. Care
problems and quality of life in groups were assessed with SF-36
questionnaire and a designed questionnaire. In the final evaluation
for determination of the effect of intervention on signs and sequelae
of disease and measuring quality of life, these variables were
assessed again. After implementation of a model the data were
analyzed using SPSS.
P>0.05 obtained from paired t test revealed significant difference
between quality of life before and after intervention in physical
components including physical function, role limitation, physical and
somatic pain. Investigation of quality of life in emotional component
includes: emotional health, role Imitation emotional and social
function with paired t test showed significant difference before and
after intervention as the same (P>0.05). Similarly, measurement of
total quality of life showed that this variable has increased from 29.7
to 34.3 and paired t test showed significant difference. (P>0.05)
Conclusion: Data analysis confirmed the hypothesis of this study.
Certainly, implementation of this model in reality with better facilities
and adequate time will show considerable results in use of drugs
pattern and will reduce sequelae of disease like pulmonary
infections, improvement of activities and will finally improve
pulmonary function. |
