“…Since pulse oximetry is a noninvasive technique, Sp,O 2 can be easily determined in large studies that occur in primary care settings [98][99][100][101][102]. As mentioned previously, Pa,O 2 is an important variable that can be measured in severe, uncooperative COPD patients with exacerbations [103]. Sp,O 2 can also be easily used to monitor these patients [104,105].…”

“…COPD exacerbation treatment outcomes vary, depending on aggressiveness of the approach [8,15]. Future exacerbations should therefore be avoided by using lifestyle modification, long-term appropriate medical treatment, pulmonary rehabilitation, and long-term home oxygen therapy where indicated [16].…”

“…This definition is very broad and leads to great inclusion heterogeneity in studies on AECOPD [14][15][16] . The definition has not been validated in clinical trials 15 .…”

“…Respiratory infections, bacterial or viral, are the most common causes of AECOPD (80 % of all cases). But environmental triggers such as air pollutants or change in air temperature can also initiate an exacerbation [14][15]17 . The type of infection responsible for the exacerbation is often unclear 15 .…”
