Aims & Objectives

Overview of COPD

Recap basic knowledge

Update on COPD

Know when to use nebulisers and home oxygen therapy

The role of NIV in palliative setting / end stage COPD

Gain patient, carer and personal view about COPD

Page 3: COPD Alison Boland StR Respiratory medicine. Aims & Objectives Overview of COPD Recap basic knowledge Update on COPD Know when to use nebulisers and home.

GOLD Definition

Airflow limitation

Not fully reversible

Progressive

Abnormal inflammatory response to noxious particles or gases

Page 4: COPD Alison Boland StR Respiratory medicine. Aims & Objectives Overview of COPD Recap basic knowledge Update on COPD Know when to use nebulisers and home.

CHRONIC

Develops slowly

Early symptoms often go un-noticed

Symptoms present for much of the time

Progressive dyspnoea over time.

Worse on exercise

Page 5: COPD Alison Boland StR Respiratory medicine. Aims & Objectives Overview of COPD Recap basic knowledge Update on COPD Know when to use nebulisers and home.

OBSTRUCTIVE

Narrowing of the bronchi

3 mechanisms:

•Bronchial walls become weakened•Mucus secretion into the bronchi.•Muscle spasm

Diagnosis

FEV1/FVC <70%

Post bronchodialator FEV1 <80% predicted.

FEV1/FVC more sensitive.

Diagnose COPD: assessment of severity

• Assess severity of airflow obstruction using reduction in FEV1

NICE clinical guideline 12

(2004)

(2010)

Pulmonary rehab

SOB waking on level ground at normal pace

2hr sessions, 6 weeks

Motivated patients

Patient views about COPD

Page 38: COPD Alison Boland StR Respiratory medicine. Aims & Objectives Overview of COPD Recap basic knowledge Update on COPD Know when to use nebulisers and home.

Key Messages

Consider Azithromycin in recurrent exacerbations

Prescribe short burst O2 with caution – expensive and little evidence

Pulmonary rehabilitation important multidisciplinary management

Finally remember how breathing through a straw felt!
