Management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A review focusing on exacerbations
2020
Purpose
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Exacerbations— acute worsening of COPD symptoms—can be mild to severe in nature. Increased healthcare resource use is common among patients with frequent exacerbations, and exacerbations are a major cause of the high 30-day hospital readmission rates associated with COPD.
