אבחנה של COPD Airflow obstruction that is irreversible FEV1 / FVC < 70%
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) גורמי סיכון: עישון - אקטיבי ופסיבי זיהום אוויר חשיפות תעסוקתיות לאבק/עשן גורמים גנטיים (חסר ב alpha-1-antitrypsin).
COPD ועישון עישון הוא הגורם העיקרי – אם אין עישון – יש לחשוב על אבחנה אחרת! בכלל האוכלוסיה – ככל שאדם עישן יותר "שנות קופסא" – FEV1 יורד. גם הסיכון למחלה תלוי ב”מינון” (שנות קופסה).
רמזים מרכזיים לאבחנה של COPD מאפיינים מרכזיים: גיל > 50 קוצר נשימה (דיספניאה) – פרוגרסיבי / קבוע. שיעול פרודוקטיבי כרוני. חשיפה לגורמי סיכון – בעיקר עישון

Higher Rates of Hospitalization Due To Comorbidities Reproduced with permission of Chest, from “Comorbidity and Mortality in COPD Related Hospitalizations in the United States, 1979 to 2001,” Holguin F et al, Vol 128, pp 2005-2011, Copyright © 2005.
Higher Mortality Rates Due to Cormorbidities IHD = ischemic heart disease CHF = congestive heart failure RF = respiratory failure PVD = pulmonary vascular disease TM = thoracic malignancy Speaker notes A recent evaluation of the USA National Hospital Discharge Survey analyzed more than 47 million hospital discharges for COPD (8.5% of all hospitalisations) that occurred in the USA from 1979 to 2001. The prevalence and in-hospital mortality of many conditions were greater in hospital discharges with any mention of COPD versus those that did not mention COPD. A hospital diagnosis of COPD was associated with a higher rate of age-adjusted, in-hospital mortality for pneumonia, hypertension, heart failure, respiratory failure, and thoracic malignancies. In contrast, a hospital diagnosis of COPD was not associated with a greater prevalence of hospitalisation or in-hospital mortality for acute and chronic renal failure, HIV, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and cerebrovascular disease.

COPD Treatment ↓ exacerbation frequency Influenza, Pneumococcal Immunization Short-Term Long-Term ↓ exacerbation frequency
COPD Treatment Short-Term Long-Term Bronchodilators: Long-acting Beta2 Agonist or Anti Cholinergic ↓ airflow obstruction ↓ hyperinflation ↑ exercise endurance ↑ tremors, dry mouth ↑ Quality of life ↓ exacerbations Combination: Inhaled Corticosteroid & Long-acting Beta2 Agonist ↓ dyspnea ↑ exercise tolerance ↑ possibly survival ↑ risk of pneumonia

COPD Treatment Short-Term Long-Term Oxygen Therapy ↑ exercise endurance ↑ survival
Oxygen Therapy Improves Survival "The more hours, the better!" Lancet 2003 362:1053-1061
Indications for Oxygen Therapy PaO2 <55 mm Hg or SaO2 ≤88% Milder hypoxemia - In the presence of cor pulmonale or hematocrit >55% Normoxemic at rest but desaturation during exercise or sleep
Oxygen Therapy Aim: PaO2 60-70mm Hg or SatO2 >88% Nasal masks 1-2L/min Venturi masks 24%, 28%, 35% Monitor SatO2, PaCO2 and pH If hypoxemia persists or CO2 retention worsens: optimize bronchodilators, consider using assisted noninvasive ventilation
Noninvasive Ventilation If hypoxemia persists or CO2 retention worsens: Optimize bronchodilators and consider using assisted noninvasive ventilation
COPD Treatment Short-Term Long-Term Pulmonary Rehabilitation ↓ dynamic hyperinflation ↓ functional dyspnea ↑ exercise endurance ↑ QOL ↑ possibly survival
Pulmonary Rehabilitation Goals: Reduce symptoms, improve quality of life, and increase participation in daily activities Program includes: Exercise training (tolerance and muscle strength) Nutrition counseling Education
Pulmonary Rehabilitation Components: Exercise training (bicycle ergometry/treadmill & upper limb exercises) Education Nutrition counseling Smoking cessation 8-12 week duration Beneficial in a wide range of disability
Benefits of Pulmonary Rehabilitation in COPD Improves exercise capacity Improves recovery from exacerbation Improves QOL Reduces perceived intensity of breathlessness Reduces hospitalizations, days in hospital Reduces anxiety & depression Benefits beyond immediate training period May improve survival

COPD – Conclusions High rates of comorbidities Rehabilitation: a standard of care to break the cycle of dyspnea, fear, anxiety, increasing inactivity A heterogeneous disease: the future is phenotype-specific treatment
