Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is often accompanied by anxiety or depression. The exacerbation of anxiety and depression can lead to the deterioration of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, reduce patients’ quality of life, worsen poor prognosis, and increase the risk of death. Anxiety and depression are one of the important causes of death in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, but the complexity of their risk factors and pathogenesis often lead to clinicians being unable to make accurate diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner. Based on existing research, this article elaborates on the risk factors and pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with anxiety or depression, aiming to improve the diagnosis and treatment ability of clinical physicians for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with anxiety or depression, achieve timely diagnosis and treatment, improve patients’ prognosis, and improve quality of life.
This article explores the application and research progress of shared decision-making (SDM) tools in ultra-early vascular recanalization therapy for ischemic stroke, focusing on analyzing the functional characteristics and advantages and disadvantages of various tools. Based on functional goals, SDM tools can be divided into four categories: brief decision aids, risk communication tools, patient information tools, and prognosis assessment tools. These tools can assist patients and doctors in making informed treatment decisions quickly in time-sensitive situations, providing a reference for optimizing stroke revascularization treatment. Additionally, SDM tools can facilitate communication between doctors and patients, enabling patients to better understand the risks and benefits of treatment options, leading to choices more aligned with personal preferences and values. Through an in-depth study of these SDM tools, it is expected to improve the diagnostic and treatment efficiency for stroke patients, reduce decision conflicts, promote collaboration between doctors and patients, and provide new ideas and methods for stroke treatment and management.
