Objective: To explore and analyze the effect of comfort nursing in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with respiratory failure. Methods: 60 patients with COPD and respiratory failure who were admitted to the Department of Respiratory Medicine of our hospital from May 2020 to May 2023 were selected as subjects of this study, and they were divided into comfort group and reference group by odd and even number draw method, with 30 cases in each group. The comfort group received comfort nursing, and the reference group received general nursing. The lung function performance and living conditions were compared between the groups. Results: Before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) in terms of lung functions such as forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and the ratio FEV1/FVC between the groups; after the intervention, the lung functions of the comfort group were significantly better than those in the reference group (P < 0.05). Before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) between the groups in terms of mental state, physical function, social situation, and spiritual aspects; after the intervention, the mental state, physical function, social situation, and spiritual aspects of the comfort group were significantly better than those of the reference group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Comfort nursing care for COPD patients with respiratory failure can improve their lung function and quality of life, and achieve ideal nursing effects.
