Projections show an increase in the prevalence and burden of COPD in the coming decades due to ageing populations and continued exposure to risk factors. In patients with COPD, mortality due to exacerbations is about 35%. Exacerbations represent the most important respiratory event in the history of this chronic disease and are of major socio-economic interest (about 50-75% of healthcare expenditure in this disease). In the most severe cases, COPD exacerbations lead to respiratory distress with hypercapnic ventilatory acidosis requiring ventilatory support.
