The Italian Registry of Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a treatable but debilitating medical condition associated with persistent symptoms and chronic airflow obstruction. Despite the availability of multiple therapeutic options, COPD is the third leading cause of death worldwide and has a substantial socioeconomic impact. The present real life study is aimed at describing the clinical and functional characteristics, treatment patterns, impact of exacerbations and comorbidities and their association with mortality in a large cohort of Italian patients with COPD.
