The Clerk Commute
An Approach to COPD Exacerbations
Today we will be going over COPD. This is a common condition and comorbidity in the general population. Whether you’re on an in-patient ward, in an acute setting, or in a family practice office, we want to make sure that we have an organized approach to this patient. This episode will cover the following topics:
- Brief overview of the pathophysiology of COPD
- Definition of COPD exacerbation
- Case example for the work-up and management of a COPD exacerbation.
This episode was edited by Dr. Ambrose Lau, a Staff Respirologist at UHN.
