Abstract:

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is a severe infectious disease that poses a serious threat to public health and society development. For PTB patients, the ongoing destruction of lung tissue caused by infection is prone to develop into irreversible changes in lung structure as the disease progresses, causes lung injury and chronic inflammation which leads to functional changes such as respiratory distress, poor secretion drainage and immune function impairment. For post PTB lung disease, prompt pulmonary rehabilitation can help to improve lung function, retard the progression of lung disease, and improve quality of life. This review summarizes the current progress on the researches, implementation methods, and effectiveness evaluation of pulmonary rehabilitation training among post PTB lung disease patients, providing a reference for patients with post PTB chronic lung impairment who will need the rehabilitation training.
