INTRODUCTION: A cohort was formed to explore the evolution of COPD patients treated in general hospitals for acute exacerbations (AE). The present article describes and compares patient characteristics according to whether COPD was diagnosed before the AE or not.
METHODS: Data were analyzed for 1,824 patients admitted between October 2006 and June 2007 to 68 departments of respiratory medicine.
RESULTS: Population characteristics were: male, 77%; mean age, 70.3+/-11.3 years; current smokers, 33%; baseline grade 3-4 dyspnoea, 47%; FEV1<or=50% predicted, 63%. The 290 patients (15.9%) with AE preceding the diagnosis of COPD tended to be younger, female, smokers and had less severe baseline dyspnoea and airflow obstruction. Even so, 21% had grade 3-4 dyspnoea and 44% had FEV1<or=50% predicted. At the onset of the AE, they exhibited as many signs of severity and they required intensive care and assisted ventilation as often as the patients in whom the AE followed a diagnosis of COPD.
CONCLUSION: When an AE precedes the diagnosis of COPD, the morbidity of the COPD and the AE is far from negligible, justifying efforts to achieve an earlier diagnosis of COPD.
