It’s all part of grading your COPD and deciding what type of treatment is best for you. COPD Groups Based on all of these things – your symptoms, spirometry results, and exacerbation risk – your doctor will put your COPD into one of these groups: Group A (GOLD 1 or 2): Your symp...
Research is needed on the use of the CAT score in assessing symptoms for the diagnosis of COPD. Further work-up is needed on diagnostic instability of spirometry, and diagnostic role of the lower limit of normal (LLN) criteria, slow vital capacity (FEV1/VC), forced inspiratory vital capacity...
"GOLD criteria for COPD" app will help on classification of the grade of airflow obstruction and the groups on which treatment recommendations are based. "GOLD criteria for COPD" app will also provide 3-year mortality risk. "GOLD criteria for COPD" also assess the symptom burden of COPD pati...
GOLD works with healthcare professionals and public health officials around the world to raise awareness of COPD and to improve prevention and treatment of this lung disease.

(2) Methods: We studied patients who were included in the Swiss COPD cohort study, an ongoing prospective study in a primary care setting, between 2015 and 2022. The key inclusion criteria are age ≥ 40 years, FEV1/FVC ratio < 70%, and a smoking history of at least 20 pack-years. ...
CONCLUSION: COPD prevalence by post-bronchodilator GOLD criteria was 3.7%, which was much lower than that of pre-bronchodilator criteria. The bronchodilator reversibility test substantially affects estimations of COPD prevalence. 展开 关键词: COPD prevalence GOLD epidemiology Korea DOI: 10.1183/...
Functional performance in patients with COPD: association with treatment regimen, GOLD group, lung function, and symptom burden in a cross-sectional study. Data suggesting that low physical activity levels are associated with increased mortality and exacerbations in patients with COPD have led to increa...
Results: The number of patients with COPD diagnosis studied during the research period of time in our hospital outpatient service was 69, however only 61 of them fulfilled all the inclusion criteria. Sixty-one patients were interviewed, average age, 73. Seventy percent were female. Fifty percent...
(Herve et al., 2015). Patients fulfilling these criteria mostly develop mPAP values >30mmHg at a corresponding CO <10L/min. The suggested definition does not differentiate between left cardiac and pulmonary vascular reasons for an abnormal hemodynamic response to exercise. Its main advantage as ...
