COPD now a disease of women CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE SURVEILLANCE—UNITED STATES, 1972-2000.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) A disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually both progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs.
COPD diagnosis • Diagnosis based on FEV/FVC • FEV/FVC <70% • Severity based on FEV % predicted • Stage 1 : FEV >80% (mild) • Stage 2 : FEV 50-79% (moderate) • Stage 3 : FEV 30-49% (severe) • Stage 4 : FEV <30% (very severe)

Other issues in COPD diagnosis • Distinguishing asthma • Not all airflow obstruction is due to COPD • Emphysema without airflow obstruction • But markedly impaired gas transfer • Combination of COPD and fibrosis • Normal spirometry but impaired gas transfer • Low FEV1/FVC with normal FEV and FVC • can be a normal variant bodybuilders, divers, rowers, firemen
Asthma v COPD • Asthma phenotype • Family history • Childhood symptoms • Allergy history • Variable symptoms • Good response to treatment • COPD phenotype • Rare before 40s • Smoking history • Fixed symptoms • Poor response to treatment
