Abstract

Purpose: This research investigated the utility of a QR code-based video pharmaceutical education program to guide the proper use of the inhalation device in elderly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.

Methods: The patients were recruited for this prospective study during a COPD hospitalization, with 96 patients in the control group (CG) receiving conventional hospital care and 93 patients in the intervention group (IG) receiving QR code-based video pharmaceutical education from hospitalization to six months after discharge to improve proper utilization of inhalation technology The outcome measures used to assess the effectiveness of the education program were the COPD Assessment Test (CAT), inhaler use accuracy, inhaler technique score, Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ) score and patient satisfaction.

Results: Compared with CG, inhaler use accuracy and inhaler use scores improved in the IG group, while BMQ-Concern and CAT scores were significantly lower (P<0.05). Improvements in patient quality-of-life and satisfaction were reported.

Conclusions: This study revealed that the QR code-based video pharmaceutical education program can improve the quality of life and satisfaction of elderly COPD patients.

老年COPD患者正确使用吸入装置的视频教育计划。

目的：本研究调查了基于二维码的视频药物教育程序在指导老年慢性阻塞性肺病（COPD）患者正确使用吸入装置方面的实用性。方法：在COPD住院期间招募患者进行本前瞻性研究，对照组（CG）的96名患者接受常规医院护理，干预组（IG）的93名患者从住院到出院六个月接受基于二维码的视频药物教育，以提高吸入技术的正确利用率。用于评估教育计划有效性的结果指标是COPD评估测试（CAT）、吸入器使用准确性、吸入器技术评分、对药物的信心问卷（BMQ）评分和患者满意度。结果：与CG相比，IG组的吸入器使用准确率和吸入器使用评分有所提高，而BMQ Concern和CAT评分显著降低（P结论：本研究表明，基于二维码的视频药学教育项目可以提高老年COPD患者的生活质量和满意度。
