Summary

Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is understood as a complex and heterogeneous syndrome, which requires an increasingly personalized approach. A new approach to AECOPD recognized that several etiopathogenic mechanisms can lead to a worsening ot the patients. This new approach is based on the identification of different treatable traits (TTs).

The goal of this observational study is to describe how TTs are distributed in patients with AECOPD in primary care (PC) and hospital emergencies department (HED) to address their complexity and heterogeneity.

As a secondary outcomes we also try to evaluate the relationship of TTs with relevant clinical outcomes (relapse, recurrence, MACE (Major Adverse Cardiovascular Event) and all-cause mortality) and create a risk score and compare this new severity score with Rome and GesEPOC proposals.

In the AP group, a series of basic tests for routine use will be systematically performed, among which chest x-ray, electrocardiogram and other new tests such as microspirometry (COPD-6) and a point of care determination of capillary C-reactive protein (CRP). In the HED group routine determinations will be expanded to include blood tests, arterial blood gases and biomarkers (CRP, TnT, NT-proBNP and D-Dimer). Patients will be re-evaluated 90 days after the initial episode, to evaluate different clinical outcomes. The estimated sample size is 400 patients.
