Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) impairs activities of daily living of the patients. The purpose of this study was to compare level of activities of daily living, and to determine the factors predicting activities of daily living in patients with moderate and severe COPD. Thirty-five patients with moderate and severe airflow obstruction participated in this study. Patients were evaluated using pulmonary function test, arterial blood gases, six-minute walk test, Borg scale, Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire (Q-ADL). In patients with severe obstruction, six-minute walk distance was significantly lower (p=0.03), and Q-ADL score was significantly higher than those of patients with moderate obstruction (p=0.022). Q-ADL score was significantly related with disease duration (r=0.52), depression (r=0.50), anxiety (r= 0.47), Borg scale (r=0.36), six-minute walk distance (r=-0.38), and FEV1 (r=-0.35) (p<0.05). The stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that duration of COPD, FEV1 and smoking status were significant and independent predictors of Q-ADL (r2=0.52, p=0.031). In conclusion, the level of activities of daily living is impaired more in severe COPD than in patients with moderate obstruction. In COPD, duration of disease, severity of airflow obstruction measured using FEV1, and smoking status are the factors determining the level of function in daily living.

Özet

Kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı (KOAH), hastaların günlük hayattaki aktivitelerini etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada, orta şiddette ve şiddetli obstrüksiyonu olan KOAH olgularının, günlük yaşam aktivite düzeylerinin karşılaştırılması ve etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Çalışmaya orta şiddette ve şiddetli hava yolu obstrüksiyonu olan KOAH’lı 35 olgu katıldı. Olgular, solunum fonksiyon testi, arteryel kan gazı analizi, 6 dakikalık yürüme testi, Borg skalası, Medical Research Council Dispne Skalası, Hastane Anksiyete ve Depresyon Skalası ve Günlük Yaşam Aktiviteleri Anketi (Q-ADL) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. şiddetli obstrüksiyonu olan olgularda 6 dakika yürüme mesafesinin, orta şiddette obstrüksiyonu olan olgulardakinden anlamlı olarak daha düşük olduğu (p=0.03); Q-ADL puanının ise, anlamlı olarak daha yüksek olduğu belirlendi (p=0.022). Q-ADL puanının, hastalık süresi (r=0.52), depresyon (r=0.50), anksiyete (r=0.47), Borg skalası (r=0.36), 6 dakika yürüme mesafesi (r=-0.38) ve FEV1 (r=-0.35) ile istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki gösterdiği saptandı (p<0.05). Çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi sonucuna göre, KOAH tanısıyla izlenme süresi, FEV1 ve sigara öyküsünün, Q-ADL puanını bağımsız olarak tahmin ettirdiği belirlendi (r2=0.52, p=0.031). Sonuç olarak, şiddetli KOAH’ta günlük yaşam aktiviteleri, orta şiddette obstrüksiyonu olan hastalardakine göre, daha belirgin şekilde etkilenmektedir. KOAH’ta, hastalara tanı konmasından itibaren geçen süre, FEV1 ile belirlenen obstrüksiyon düzeyi ve sigara öyküsü, hastaların günlük yaşamdaki fonksiyon düzeylerini belirleyen faktörlerdir.
