No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Acute exacerbations of COPD remain a common cause of morbidity and are associated with a sustained increase in the normal respiratory symptoms of dyspnoea, cough, and sputum volume and purulence. It has previously been shown that a change in cough symptoms occurs in 51.7% of exacerbations in COPD. We wish to record cough during a COPD exacerbation to determine whether this can be a objective marker of exacerbation duration and severity.
