Abstract: Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of the inhalation of tiotropium bromide in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Methods 35 cases with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease during 2010 June to 2011 November in our department were observed which was used by tiotropium bromide dry powder (Spirva, 18 μg, once daily) . The pulmonary function, average daily use of beta agonists times and cardiopulmonary insufficiency in patients with Plasma brain natriuretic peptide levels(BNP)were compared before treatment and three months after the treatment. The number of admissions three months before treatment and three months after treatment was recorded,and the adverse reaction observed. Results Tiotropium pulmonary function was improved significantly, the number of daily use of beta agonists reduced, peripheral blood BNP decreased obviously, the number of acute exacerbation of seizures became less,no serious adverse reaction occurred. Conclusion Tiotropium bromide was effectiveness and safety in moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
