ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Definition of COPD
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is
a preventable and treatable disease state characterised
by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible.
The airflow limitation is usually progressive and
associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of
the lungs to noxious particles or gases, primarily caused
by cigarette smoking.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Epidemiology (1)
COPD is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality
worldwide, and results in an economic and social burden
that is both substantial and increasing.
Prevalence and morbidity data greatly underestimate the
total burden of COPD because the disease is usually not
diagnosed until it is clinically apparent and moderately
advanced.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Epidemiology (2)
COPD is the fourth leading cause of death in the USA and
Europe, and COPD mortality in females has more than doubled
over the last 20 years.

ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Epidemiology (3)
COPD is a more costly disease than asthma and, depending on country, 50–
75% of the costs are for services associated with exacerbations.
Tobacco smoke is by far the most important risk factor for COPD worldwide.
Other important risk factors are:
Host factors
Exposures
Genetic factors
Sex
Airway hyperreactivity,
IgE and asthma
Smoking
Socio-economic status
Occupation
Environmental pollution
Perinatal events and childhood illness
Recurrent bronchopulmonary infections
Diet
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis
Tobacco smoking is the main risk factor for COPD, although other
inhaled noxious particles and gases may contribute.
In addition to inflammation, an imbalance of proteinases and antiproteinases
in the lungs, and oxidative stress are also important in the pathogenesis of
COPD.
Pathophysiology
The different pathogenic mechanisms produce the pathological changes
which, in turn, give rise to the physiological abnormalities in COPD:
mucous hypersecretion and ciliary dysfunction,
airflow limitation and hyperinflation,
gas exchange abnormalities,
pulmonary hypertension,
systemic effects.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Diagnosis of COPD (1)
Diagnosis of COPD should be considered in any patient who
has the following:
symptoms of cough
sputum production
dyspnoea
history of exposure to risk factors for the disease
Spirometry should be obtained in all persons with the following
history:
exposure to cigarettes and/or environmental or occupational pollutants
family history of chronic respiratory illness
presence of cough, sputum production or dyspnoea
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Diagnosis of COPD (2)
Spirometry
Spirometric classification of COPD:
Post-bronchodilator FEV1/forced vital capacity <0.7 confirms the
presence of airflow limitation that is not fully reversible.

Patients who:
smoke
or have exposure to pollutants
have cough, sputum or dyspnoea
have family history of respiratory disease
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Smoking cessation (1)
Tobacco is the most important risk factor for COPD.
Cigarette smoking is an addiction and a chronic relapsing disorder.
Treating tobacco use and dependence should be regarded as a primary and specific intervention.
Smoking cessation activities and support for its implementation should be integrated into the
healthcare system.
The key steps in intervention are:
Ask
Identify all tobacco users at every visit
Advise
Strongly urge all tobacco users to quit
Assess
Determine willingness to make a quit attempt
Assist
Help the patient with a quit plan, provide practical counselling, treatment and
social support, recommend the use of approved pharmacotherapy
Arrange
Schedule follow-up contact

ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Pharmacological therapy (1)
The medications for COPD currently available can reduce or
abolish symptoms, increase exercise capacity, reduce the number
and severity of exacerbations, and improve health status.
At present, no treatment has been shown to modify the rate of
decline in lung function.
The change in lung function after brief treatment with any drug
does not help in predicting other clinically related outcomes.
The inhaled route is preferred.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Pharmacological therapy (2)
Changes in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)
following bronchodilator therapy can be small but are often
accompanied by larger changes in lung volume, which contribute
to a reduction in perceived breathlessness.
Combining different agents produces a greater change in
spirometry and symptoms than single agents alone.
Three types of bronchodilators are in common clinical use: βagonists, anticholinergic drugs and methylxanthines.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Pharmacological therapy (3)
Bronchodilators
Short-acting bronchodilators can increase exercise tolerance acutely in COPD.
Anticholinergics given q.i.d. can improve health status over a 3-month period.
Long-acting inhaled β-agonists improve health status, possibly more than regular
ipratropium. Additionally, these drugs reduce symptoms, rescue medication use and
increase the time between exacerbations.
Combining short-acting agents (salbutamol/ipratropium) produces a greater change in
spirometry over 3 months than either agent alone.
Combining long-acting inhaled β-agonists and ipratropium leads to fewer exacerbations
than either drug alone.
Combining long-acting β-agonists and theophylline produces a greater spirometric
change than either drug alone.
Tiotropium improves health status and reduces exacerbations and hospitalisations
compared with both placebo and regular ipratropium.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Pharmacological therapy (4)
Glucocorticoids
Glucocorticoids act at multiple points within the
inflammatory cascade, although their effects in COPD
are more modest compared with bronchial asthma.
In patients with more advanced disease (usually
classified as an FEV1 <50% predicted), there is
evidence that inhaled corticosteroids can reduce the
number of exacerbations per year.

Long-term oxygen therapy (1)
Long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) improves survival, exercise,
sleep and cognitive performance.
Reversal of hypoxaemia supersedes concerns about carbon
dioxide (CO2) retention.
Arterial blood gas (ABG) is the preferred measure and
includes acid-base information.
Oxygen sources include gas, liquid and concentrator.
Oxygen delivery methods include nasal continuous flow, pulse
demand, reservoir cannulas and transtracheal catheter.

Pulmonary rehabilitation
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary programme of care that is
individually tailored and designed to optimise physical and social performance
and autonomy.
Pulmonary rehabilitation should be considered for patients with COPD who
have dyspnoea or other respiratory symptoms, reduced exercise tolerance, a
restriction in activities because of their disease, or impaired health status.
Pulmonary rehabilitation programmes include:
exercise training,
education,
psychosocial/behavioural intervention,
nutritional therapy,
outcome assessment,
promotion of long-term adherence to the rehabilitation recommendations.

Nutrition
Weight loss and a depletion of fat-free mass (FFM) may be observed in stable
COPD patients.
Being underweight is associated with an increased mortality risk.
Criteria to define weight loss are:
Weight loss >10% in the past 6 months or >5% in the past month.
Nutritional therapy may only be effective if combined with exercise or other anabolic
stimuli.
Underweight
BMI <21 kg·m-2;age >50 yrs
Normal weight
BMI <21–25 kg·m-2
Overweight
BMI <30 kg·m-2

Surgery in COPD (1)
Patients with a diagnosis of COPD have a 2.7–4.7-fold
increased risk of post-operative pulmonary complications.
The further the procedure from the diaphragm, the lower the
pulmonary complication rate.
Smoking cessation at least 4–8 weeks pre-operatively and
optimisation of lung function can decrease post-operative
complications.
Early mobilisation, deep breathing, intermittent positive-pressure
breathing, incentive spirometry and effective analgesia may
decrease postoperative complications.

Sleep in COPD is associated with oxygen desaturation, which is predominantly
due to the disease itself rather than to sleep apnoea. The desaturation during sleep
may be greater than during maximum exercise.
Sleep quality is markedly impaired in COPD, both subjectively and objectively.
Clinical assessment in all patients with COPD should include questions about
sleep quality and possible co-existing sleep apnoea syndrome.
Management of sleep problems in COPD should particularly focus on
minimising sleep disturbance by measures to limit cough and dyspnoea, and
nocturnal oxygen therapy is rarely indicated for isolated nocturnal hypoxaemia.
Hypnotics should be avoided, if possible, in patients with severe COPD.

Air travel
Commercial airliners can cruise at >12,000 m (>40,000
feet) as long as the cabin is pressurised from 1,800–
2,400 m (6,000–8,000 feet). This is equivalent to an
inspired oxygen (O2) concentration at sea level of ~15%.
Patients with COPD can exhibit falls in arterial O2 tension
(Pa,O2) that average 25 mmHg (3.3 kPa).
Pre-flight assessment can help determine O2 needs and the
presence of co-morbidities.
Most airlines will provide supplemental O2 on request.
There is increasing evidence that patients on long flights may be at
increased risk for deep vein thrombosis.

Definition, evaluation and
treatment (1)
The definition of COPD exacerbation is an acute
change in a patient’s baseline dyspnoea, cough and/or
sputum beyond day-to-day variability sufficient to warrant
a change in therapy.
Causes of exacerbation can be both infectious and noninfectious.
Medical therapy includes bronchodilators, corticosteroids,
antibiotics and supplemental oxygen therapy.

Indications for hospitalisation of patients with a COPD
exacerbation
Presence of high-risk co-morbid conditions, including pneumonia, cardiac
arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, diabetes mellitus, renal or liver failure
Inadequate response of symptoms to outpatient management
Marked increase in dyspnoea
Inability to eat or sleep due to symptoms
Worsening hypoxaemia
Worsening hypercapnia
Changes in mental status
Inability of the patient to care for her/himself
Uncertain diagnosis
Inadequate home care

treatment (4)
Level I: outpatient treatment
Patient education
Check inhalation technique
Consider use of spacer devices
Bronchodilators
Short-acting β2-agonist and/or ipratropium MDI with spacer or hand-held nebuliser as needed
Consider adding long-acting bronchodilator if patient is not using it
Corticosteroids (the actual dose may vary)
Prednisone 30–40 mg per os q day for 10 days
Consider using an inhaled corticosteroid
Antibiotics
May be initiated in patients with altered sputum characteristics
Choice should be based on local bacteria resistance patterns
Amoxicillin/ampicillin, cephalosporins
Doxycycline
Macrolides
If the patient has failed prior antibiotic therapy consider:
Amoxicillin/clavulanate
Respiratory fluoroquinolones

Assisted ventilation
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
In-patient oxygen therapy
The goal is to prevent tissue hypoxia by maintaining arterial oxygen saturation
(Sa,O2) at >90%.
Main delivery devices include nasal cannula and venturi mask.
Alternative delivery devices include nonrebreather mask, reservoir cannula,
nasal cannula or transtracheal catheter.
Arterial blood gases should be monitored for arterial oxygen tension ( Pa,O2),
arterial carbon dioxide tension (Pa,CO2) and pH.
Arterial oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry ( Sp,O2) should be
monitored for trending and adjusting oxygen settings.
Prevention of tissue hypoxia supercedes CO 2 retention concerns.
If CO2 retention occurs, monitor for acidaemia.
If acidaemia occurs, consider mechanical ventilation.

Assisted ventilation
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Assisted ventilation (1)
Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) should be offered to
patients with exacerbations when, after optimal medical therapy and
oxygenation, respiratory acidosis (pH <7.36) and or excessive
breathlessness persist. All patients considered for mechanical ventilation should
have arterial blood gases measured.
If pH <7.30, NPPV should be delivered under controlled environments
such as intermediate intensive care units (ICUs) and/or high-dependency units.
If pH <7.25, NPPV should be administered in the ICU and intubation
should be readily available.
The combination of some continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) (e.g.
4–8 cmH2O) and pressure support ventilation (PSV) (e.g. 10–15
cmH2O) provides the most effective mode of NPPV.
ERS-ATS COPD Guidelines
Assisted ventilation (2)
Patients meeting exclusion criteria should be considered for immediate intubation
and ICU admission.
Exclusion criteria include:
respiratory arrest,
cardiovascular instability,
impaired mental status,
somnolence,
inability to cooperate,
copious and/or viscous secretions with high aspiration risk,
recent facial or gastro-oesophageal surgery; craniofacial trauma and/or fixed
naso-pharyngeal abnormality,
burns,
extreme obesity.
In the first hours, NPPV requires the same level of assistance as
conventional mechanical ventilation.
