Patients who are present with any of the hallmark symptoms, such as dyspnoea, increased sputum production and cough, and particularly those who have a history of smoking are clinically suspected of having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) initiated the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) program. The program's ability to provide complete and up-to-date reports on COPD diagnosis and treatment guidelines are widely recognized.
Diagnosis of COPD may depend on various factors such as medical history, family history, and physical examination, which help the pulmonologist to conclude the diagnosis because a complete medical history and complete examination are necessary when a new patient has COPD, whether confirmed or suspected. The pulmonologist takes into consideration the following steps before selecting the appropriate tests for the diagnosis of COPD:
Patient’s medical history
COPD family history
Physical examination of COPD patient
Based on the above information, a pulmonologist advises the single or combination of the following diagnostic tests to detect COPD:
COPD blood tests
Electrocardiogram
Echocardiogram
An ultrasound scan of the heart is known as an echocardiogram, which is performed to assess pulmonary circulation pressures in individuals presenting cor pulmonale symptoms.
Lung function tests
Lung imaging tests
A calculation of the patient's body mass index (BMI)
Pulse oximetry
Sputum analysis
A 6-minute walk test
While treating patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the pulmonologists may consider the following criteria for better outcome of the patients:
The main goals of therapy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) include:
Although there is no known cure for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), medication can help manage the symptoms and decrease the disease's progression. However, the chance of complications and flare-ups decreases with the earlier initiation of treatment. Below are the available treatment options for COPD:
COPD treatment medications include bronchodilators (beta2-agonists, antimuscarinics, methylxanthines), inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), glucocorticoids, phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitors, and antibiotics, expectorants, and oxygen therapy.
When medical therapy alone fails to control symptoms in severe situations, surgical intervention is needed and may even enhance the quality of life. Surgical intervention that includes lung volume reduction surgery, lung transplantation, or bullectomy may be necessary in such cases.
While there is no known cure for COPD, symptoms may improve if a person stops smoking, protects themselves from air pollution, and receives vaccinations to fight against illnesses. Medication, oxygen, and pulmonary rehabilitation are further treatment options.
Cigarette smoking causes both lung cancer and COPD, and there is increasing evidence that the two illnesses have more in common besides a common etiology. COPD is an independent risk factor for lung carcinoma, mainly for squamous cell carcinoma.
During childhood and adolescence, smoking and exposure to second hand smoke (inhaled accidentally) may inhibit the growth and development of the lungs. This may raise the chance that an adult may develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
It is not possible to reverse chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), although it can be controlled and treated to lessen symptoms and decrease the disease's progression. Moreover, damaged lung tissue does not heal on its own.
Immediate intubation and oxygenation is the appropriate way of action. There is no concern about oxygen supplementation causing clinical deterioration; instead, giving the patient enough oxygen to maintain a near-normal saturation (above 90%). Intubation is probably necessary regardless of the patient's health if it is dangerous.
Shortness of breath, a long term cough with phlegm that does not go away, fatigue (feeling of tiredness), repeated chest infections, chest heaviness or tightness, and persistent wheezing or whistling are common symptoms of COPD.
Yes, symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may come and go and can change in intensity throughout the day, week, and year. Symptoms may become unexpectedly severe during a flare-up, also known as an exacerbation, which may last for a few days or even weeks.
The most common cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is cigarette smoking. The lungs and airways are damaged by prolonged smoking or by breathing in tobacco smoke or airborne pollutants. In some cases, genetics may also cause COPD.
Both conditions cause a cough, but people with asthma frequently experience a dry cough that is worse at night and is commonly associated with allergens. On the other hand, years of smoking are usually the cause of COPD.
Large, air-filled spaces called bullae are found in lung tissue and are frequently linked to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although bullae are often bigger than blebs, there is no particular limit to their size.
One well-known alternative treatment option for respiratory chronic disorders is salt therapy or halotherapy, which is used to prevent infections in the lungs. According to some research, halotherapy sessions are particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from COPD. With the advancement of technology, treating this condition with tiny inhalers filled with salt is now possible.
With chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), long term pain is common. It is associated with reduced physical activity, sadness, and increased dyspnoea (shortness of breath).
Morning symptoms often characterize chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A significant number of individuals with COPD consider the morning as the most challenging time of day due to increased symptoms and restricted physical activity.
Patients with severe COPD noticed a similar decrease in PaO2 when walking or climbing stairs. Compared to walking, stair climbing caused more noticeable hyperinflation of the lungs, increased blood lactate levels, and more dyspnoea.
