Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with an enhanced
chronic inflammatory response, in the airways and the lung, to noxious particles or gases. While the disease course is marked by progressive deterioration in airflow it is
punctuated by acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) which contribute to the overall disease severity and which increase in frequency as the disease worsens.
