Research Article: Elevated BUN Upon Admission as a Predictor of in-Hospital Mortality Among Patients with Acute Exacerbation of COPD: A Secondary Analysis of Multicenter Cohort Study

Date Published: 2023-07-13

Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disease that is characterized by persistent airflow limitation and recurrent exacerbations., It is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and induces a substantial health and economic burden., Acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) is defined as periodic deterioration of respiratory symptoms, resulting in the need for urgent care or hospitalization and a decline in the quality of life. Early identification of severe patients with high-risk of mortality is crucial, as it can help physician choose appropriate treatment strategies and reduce in-hospital mortality.,
