Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) causes limitation of airflow in the lungs that cannot be fully reversed, leading to symptoms of breathlessness, cough, wheeze and sputum production. The disease, although chronic, is interspersed with periods of acute symptomatic and functional deterioration known as exacerbations. Exacerbations have important consequences for patients and their healthcare providers.
