ABSTRACT

Objective: This article systematically reviews the efficacy and safety of TCM Intestinal Cleansing Method in the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic pulmonary obstructive pulmonary disease, and provides clinical reference for the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Methods: A computer search of the major databases such as China Knowledge Network (CNKI), VIP, WanFang, CBM, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane (January 1995-July 2022) was conducted to collect the results of a randomized controlled trial on the use of TCM Intestinal cleansing method combined with western medicine treatment compared with western medicine treatment alone in the acute exacerbation of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Conclusion: The TCM Intestinal cleansing method combined with western medicine treatment can improve the lung function of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and provide new ideas for the treatment of patients with acute exacerbation of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
