Investigators propose to conduct a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter assessing the interests of an antibiotic protocol guided by serum procalcitonin (PCT) on morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) hospitalized in intensive care unit (ICU) for acute exacerbation with or without associated pneumonia.
