Prevalence of Bronchiectasis in COPD Patients

NCT04101448 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2019-09-24

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The identification of bronchiectasis in COPD has been defined as a different clinical COPD phenotype with greater symptomatic severity, more frequent chronic bronchial infection and exacerbations, and poor prognosis. A causal association has not yet been proven, but it is biologically plausible that COPD, and particularly the infective and exacerbator COPD phenotypes, could be the cause of bronchiectasis without any other known etiology, beyond any mere association or comorbidity.
