AB  - OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of respiratory rehabilitation training 
      combined with limb rehabilitation on sputum clearance and quality of life in 
      patients with bronchiectasis. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 86 patients 
      with bronchiectasis was divided into an intervention group and an observation 
      group, with 43 cases in each group. All patients were above 18 years of age with 
      no history of relevant drug allergies. Patients in the observation group were 
      treated with conventional drugs, and those in the intervention group were given 
      respiratory rehabilitation training and limb rehabilitation on this basis. After 
      three months of treatment, the indexes of sputum discharge, sputum traits, lung 
      function, and the 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) were compared and quality of life 
      and survival skills were assessed using the Barthel index and a quality-of-life 
      comprehensive assessment questionnaire (GQOLI-74). RESULTS: The percentage of 
      patients with mild Barthel index in the intervention group was higher than that 
      in the observation group, and the difference between the groups was statistically 
      significant (P < 0.05). After treatment, the scores of life quality and the lung 
      function in the intervention group were higher than those in the observation 
      group (both P < 0.05). After three months of treatment, the sputum volume and 
      sputum viscosity scores of the two groups were higher than those before treatment 
      (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Respiratory rehabilitation training with limb exercise 
      rehabilitation can effectively improve the sputum clearance rate, lung function, 
      and quality of life of patients with bronchiectasis and is thus worthy of 
      clinical promotion and application.
