Abstract

Background: Unique cognitive impairments related to chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) have been increasingly reported. Considering the dementia risk and medication management, older patients with COPD should be evaluated for cognitive impairment. This study aimed to examine whether specific cognitive impairments related to COPD could be detected by an assessment tool using a touchscreen personal computer (PC) in older patients with COPD.

Methods: This study included 28 older male patients with COPD and 30 healthy older male individuals. A touchscreen PC-based cognitive assessment application called CogEvo was used to assess and compare the cognitive function according to five domains: spatial cognition, orientation, working memory, executive function, and attention.

Results: Analysis of variance showed an interaction effect on the indices of cognitive function based on five domains between the two groups, indicating differences in the characteristics of cognitive function in such groups. Betweengroup comparisons as a subtest showed that attention, executive function, and working memory were significantly lower in the COPD group than in the healthy group.

Conclusions: CogEvo can detect specific cognitive impairments associated with COPD, suggesting that it can be potentially used as a screening tool for cognitive impairment in older patients with COPD.

使用触摸屏个人电脑认知功能评估工具评估老年慢性阻塞性肺疾病患者认知功能障碍的初步研究

背景:与慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)相关的独特认知障碍的报道越来越多。考虑到痴呆风险和药物管理，老年COPD患者应进行认知障碍评估。本研究旨在研究是否可以通过使用触摸屏个人电脑(PC)的评估工具检测老年COPD患者与COPD相关的特定认知障碍。方法:本研究纳入28例老年男性COPD患者和30例健康老年男性个体。使用基于触摸屏pc的认知评估应用程序CogEvo，从空间认知、方向、工作记忆、执行功能和注意力五个方面对认知功能进行评估和比较。结果:方差分析显示，两组在5个领域的认知功能指标存在交互效应，表明两组认知功能特征存在差异。组间比较作为亚测试显示，COPD组的注意力、执行功能和工作记忆显著低于健康组。结论:CogEvo可以检测与COPD相关的特定认知障碍，这表明它可以潜在地用作老年COPD患者认知障碍的筛查工具。
