Methods: A total of 60 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD admitted between September 2022 and September 2023 were selected and randomly grouped into a control group (conventional care and treatment) and an observation group (joint interventions: traditional Chinese medicine nursing interventions, acupoint compresses), with 30 patients each. The arterial blood gas indexes of the two groups, hospitalization time, pulmonary function indexes, and TCM symptom scores were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results: The arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2) (9.52 ± 1.02 kPa) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) (5.01 ± 1.02 kPa) of the observation group were better than those of the control group after the intervention (P < 0.05). The forced expiratory volume (FEV1) (3.38 ± 0.15%), the FEV1% prediction value (72.52 ± 2.25), and the FEV1/ forced vital capacity (FVC) (79.52 ± 1.41%) were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The hospitalization time (12.16 ± 1.02 d) and TCM symptom score (4.12 ± 1.26) of the observation group were better than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Significant nursing effects were achieved by carrying out combined interventions (Chinese medicine nursing intervention and acupoint application) during the acute exacerbation of COPD.
