About this study

This study is based on a real world using a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.Based on a real-world multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, this study will clinically observe patients with frequent acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the stable phase.The study will evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Chinese medicine treatment programs in patients with frequent acute exacerbations of stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and provide high-quality evidence for the popularization and application of Chinese medicine therapy in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.This study will scientifically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of TCM treatment programs in patients with frequent acute exacerbations of stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and provide high-quality evidence for the popularization of TCM evidence-based treatment in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Treatment and study plan

Bufei Yishen Prescription Granule

Other

The comparison group was given Bufei Yishen Prescription Granule.The course of treatment was the same as that of the experimental group.

Primary outcomes

  1. The number of acute exacerbations

    Time frame: Change from baseline the number of acute exacerbations at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    The number of acute exacerbations

Secondary outcomes

  1. The number of AECOPD leading to hospitalization and death

    Time frame: Change from baseline the number of AECOPD leading to hospitalization and death at month 3, 6, 9 and 12.

    Deaths due to AECOPD should be recorded in the study diary.

  2. Time of onset of the first AECOPD

    Time frame: Immediately after the intervention

    the interval between the first medication and the first AECOPD (days).

  3. Severity of AECOPD

    Time frame: Change from baseline severity of AECOPD at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    mild, moderate and severe

  4. Duration of AECOPD

    Time frame: Change from baseline duration of AECOPD at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    The duration of acute exacerbation is from the beginning of an acute exacerbation to the stabilization of the disease

  5. Case fatality rate

    Time frame: Up to month 12

    including the case fatality rate of AECOPD and the all-cause case fatality rate

  6. Lung function

    Time frame: Change from baseline lung function at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    FVC, FEV1, FEV1 % of the estimated value, FEV1/FVC were mainly used for evaluation

  7. Score for clinical signs and symptoms

    Time frame: Change from baseline clinical symptoms and signs at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    Formulate with reference to the "Guidelines for Clinical Research of New Chinese Medicines"Clinical scoring is weighted or assigned according to some of the main symptoms, signs, physiological parameters of patients, etc., so as to quantitatively evaluate the severity of the disease.The higher the score, the worse the state.

  8. 6-minute walking distance (6MWD)

    Time frame: Change from baseline 6-minute walking distance (6MWD) at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    The 6-minute walking test standard published by ERS and ATS was adopted

  9. The Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Patient Self-Assessment Test (CAT)

    Time frame: Change from baseline the chronic obstructive pulmonary patient self-assessment test (CAT) at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    The Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Patient Self-Assessment Test (CAT), with a score range of 0 to 40.The higher the score, the worse the state.

  10. The MOS item short fromhealth survey(SF-36)

    Time frame: Change from baseline SF-36 scale at month 3, 6, 9and 12.

    SF-36 Includes 8 dimensions: physical functioning, physical functioning, somatic pain, general health status, social functioning, emotional functioning, and mental health.The higher the score, the worse the state.
