COPD is a public health problem of global concern, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients and is also the third leading cause of death from non-communicable diseases. To investigate the effect of Ba duan jin exercise on lung function and the results of a 6-min walking trial in patients with stable COPD. Literature databases such as Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Chinese Biomedical Literature (CBM), CNKI, Wanfang Data and VIP were searched by computer, the search period is up to January 2024. Literature screening, quality evaluation and data extraction were carried out independently by two researchers. And use RevMan 5.3 software and StataMP 18 (64-bit) software to process the relevant outcome indicators. A total of 16 RCT studies with 1184 patients were included. The meta-analysis results showed that compared with the control group, Ba Duan Jin exercise could improve FEV1 (MD = 0.29, 95% CI (0.20, 0.37), P < 0.0001), FEV1/FVC (%) (MD = 3.86, 95% CI (2.24, 5.47), P < 0.00001), and 6-min walking distance (MD = 45.41, 95% CI (33.93, 56.89), P < 0.00001) in stable COPD patients. The results of subgroup analysis based on the duration of the intervention cycle, research quality, and intervention frequency showed that periodic Ba Duan Jin exercise can significantly improve the relevant lung function levels to varying degrees. At the same time, the intervention effect of Ba Duan Jin exercise during the implementation process is also affected by the duration of the exercise cycle, exercise frequency, and the completion of the exercise plan. Ba Duan Jin exercise has a positive improvement effect on lung function and 6-min walking distance in stable COPD patients. In the process of exercise implementation, attention should be paid to cultivating exercise habits, stabilizing and improving attendance rates, and strictly implementing training techniques to achieve the best clinical outcomes for these patients.
