3.2 million (2019) [ 3] Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) is a type of progressive lung disease characterized by long-term respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. [ 8] GOLD 2024 defined COPD as a heterogeneous lung condition characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms ( dyspnea or shortness of breath, cough, sputum production ...
Asthma-COPD overlap. Asthma-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Overlap (ACO), also known as Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome (ACOS) is a chronic inflammatory, obstructive airway disease in which features of both asthma and COPD predominate. Asthma and COPD were once thought of as distinct entities, however in some, there are clinical ...
An acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis ( AECB ), is a sudden worsening of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms including shortness of breath, quantity and color of phlegm that typically lasts for several days. It may be triggered by an infection with bacteria ...
Bronchial hyperresponsiveness is a hallmark of asthma but also occurs frequently in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). [2] In the Lung Health Study, bronchial hyperresponsiveness was present in approximately two-thirds of patients with non-severe COPD, and this predicted lung function decline independently of other ...
Pulmonology. Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema ( CPFE ), describes a medical syndrome involving both pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema. [1] [2] The combination is most commonly found in male smokers. Pulmonary function tests typically show preserved lung volume with very low transfer factor.
464.3 Epiglottitis, acute. 464.4 Croup. 465 Acute upper respiratory infections of multiple or unspecified sites. 465.9 Upper respiratory infection, acute, NOS. 466 Acute bronchitis and bronchiolitis. 466.0 Bronchitis, acute. 466.11 Bronchiolitis, acute, due to RSV.
Reactive airway disease. Reactive airway disease ( RAD) is an informal label that physicians apply to patients with symptoms similar to those of asthma. [ 1] An exact definition of the condition does not exist. [ 1][ 2] Individuals who are typically labeled as having RAD generally have a history of wheezing, coughing, dyspnea, and production of ...
Pulmonology. End stage pulmonary disease ( ESPD) [2] is the result of chronic progressive lung diseases like COPD, [3] idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, or systemic progressive diseases that affect the lungs such as cystic fibrosis or granulomatosis with polyangiitis. It is defined as when the lungs can no longer or barely remove enough carbon ...
