COPD remains a major cause of ill health, disability, healthcare
costs and premature mortality. Scientists and clinicians
across many countries have made great efforts to understand
this important disease, and these have yielded positive results.
This Monograph provides an up-to-date overview of what is
happening in this exciting field, both at a basic and a clinical
level. Beginning, crucially, with the patient’s perspective, the
chapters that follow consider the best way to define COPD,
changes in the disease’s incidence and prevalence, and offer
new insights into the role of the microbiome in COPD, advances
in imaging and treatment options, both pharmacological and
non-pharmacological. Taken together, these chapters are an
important contribution to the Monograph series and the COPD
field in general.
