COPD exacerbation is associated with a high mortality rate and severe decrease in the QOL.Most medical expenses associated with COPD involve treatment costs related to exacerbation.However, the identification of pre-exacerbation changes in respiratory conditions from self controlled range, risk assessment, and multidisciplinary integrated respiratory care intervention could truly stabilize the condition of a patient with COPD and thus decrease the frequency of exacerbation.Such a decrease would be expected to lead to a high QOL, better COPD survival rate, and medical economic benefits.In addition, a reduced frequency of exacerbation would increase the stability of a patient's condition, allowing the continuation of effective pulmonary rehabilitation and maintenance of beneficial physical activity.
慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）急性加重与高死亡率及生活质量严重下降相关。与COPD相关的大部分医疗费用涉及急性加重的治疗成本。然而，从自我控制范围、风险评估以及多学科综合呼吸护理干预中识别急性加重前呼吸状况的变化，能够真正稳定COPD患者的病情，从而降低急性加重的频率。预计这种降低将带来高生活质量、更好的COPD生存率以及医疗经济效益。此外，急性加重频率的降低将提高患者病情的稳定性，使有效的肺康复得以持续并维持有益的身体活动。
