Abstract: Objective To evaluate effect of rehabilitation training, acupuncture and Chinese medicine on the patient’s pulmonary function after lung resection surgery. Methods A total of 100 patients after pneumonectomy were selected from April 2008 to mid-2011, 1 in Shanghai Pudong Pulmonary Hospital. Using randomized, controlled clinical research methods, patients were allocated into rehabilitation treatment group and the acupuncture treatment group. Two weeks was a course of treatment. Changes in lung function after treatment was observed. Results Ninety-three patients were chosen into the final analysis. The two groups had no significant difference in gender and age(P>0.05), and were comparable. Comparison of pulmonary function in the control group before and after treatment did not show any significant difference(P>0.05), but there was significant difference in treatment group before and after treatment(P<0.01). The pulmonary function of treatment group before and after treatment in men had no significant difference(P>0.05), nor in women(P>0.05); there was no significant difference between men and women in the treatment group after treatment(P>0.05). In treatment group, there was significant difference in patients in age groups 30-40 Y and 40-50 Y, before and after treatment(P<0.05). Conclusion Rehabilitation and acupuncture therapy as a simple rehabilitation, may be associated with improved pulmonary function after lung resection. Acupuncture has a good safety without obvious adverse reactions.
