Furthermore, understanding barriers and facilitators to implementation success is of interest.

Integrated Care Model

The patients who are hospitalised due to a COPD exacerbation will be aligned to a nurse-led integrated care model for three months. The model constitutes a bundle of interventions that are commonly known as key elements in COPD management. In addition, the ANP-Team (Advanced Nursing Practice-Team) will coordinate the different health professionals within the hospital and across transitions within the three months.
