Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Report and the Journal of the COPD Foundation, The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease GOLD is a recent practice strategy for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD. with COPD are classified into grade I forced expiratory volume in the first second based on postbronchodilator spirometry. Background: Triple therapy, long-acting muscarinic antagonist LAMA plus long-acting beta2-agonist LABA plus inhaled corticosteroid ICS, is recommended by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease GOLD for moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD with a history of frequent and/or frequent conditions. The most common conditions in these patients are chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD, diffuse interstitial lung disease ILD and cystic fibrosis CF. Advanced chronic lung disease is associated with weight loss and protein-calorie imbalance, both of which are risk factors for malnutrition and increased morbidity.1. INTRODUCTION. The global burden of COPD is expected to increase in the coming decades due to an aging population and continued exposure to risk factors. Every year, the GOLD recommendations from the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease are updated to ensure they are in line with the latest developments. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD is a lung disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airway obstruction. COPD is a triad of emphysema, chronic bronchitis and small airway fibrosis. Chronic bronchitis is defined as a productive cough for months on end for years. UK, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD is a chronic, often progressive lung disease that causes persistent obstruction of airflow. It is characterized by respiratory symptoms such as dyspnea, cough and sputum production associated with changes in the airways and/or alveoli. Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease GOLD is imperative for physicians. GOLD reports have been used as evidence-based reference tools for implementing effective disease management plans for COPD, and represent current best practices for the care of patients living with the disease. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD is responsible for significant mortality and morbidity rates. economic burden, and is one of the most important public health problems. Because the disease features include irreversible airway obstruction and progressive decline in lung function, there is considerable interest in detection at Definition. An exacerbation of COPD is described as an acute worsening of respiratory symptoms associated with a variable degree of physiological deterioration. guidelines from the WHO and the US National Heart Lung and Blood Institute Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease GOLD, an exacerbation as “an event”, the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease GOLD was established to establish standards for evaluation and.,
