  2. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_obstructive...

    Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a type of progressive lung disease characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. [8] GOLD 2024 defined COPD as a heterogeneous lung condition characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms (dyspnea or shortness of breath, cough, sputum production or exacerbations) due to abnormalities of the airways (bronchitis ...

    An acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (AECB), is a sudden worsening of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms including shortness of breath, quantity and color of phlegm that typically lasts for several days.

  5. Obstructive lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstructive_lung_disease

    Types of obstructive lung disease include asthma, bronchiectasis, bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although COPD shares similar characteristics with all other obstructive lung diseases, such as the signs of coughing and wheezing , they are distinct conditions in terms of disease onset, frequency of symptoms, and ...

  6. Emphysema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emphysema

    When associated with significant airflow limitation, emphysema is a major subtype of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressive lung disease characterized by long-term breathing problems and poor airflow. [10] [11] Without COPD, the finding of emphysema on a CT lung scan still confers a higher mortality risk in tobacco smokers ...

  7. Respiratory failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_failure

    Increased airways resistance (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, suffocation) Reduced breathing effort (drug effects, brain stem lesion, extreme obesity) A decrease in the area of the lung available for gas exchange (such as in chronic bronchitis) Neuromuscular problems (Guillain–Barré syndrome, [2] motor neuron disease)

  8. Respiratory acidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_acidosis

    Chronic respiratory acidosis: HCO 3 − rises 3.5 mEq/L for each 10 mm Hg rise in PaCO 2. The expected change in pH with respiratory acidosis can be estimated with the following equations: [citation needed] Acute respiratory acidosis: Change in pH = 0.08 X ((40 − PaCO 2)/10) Chronic respiratory acidosis: Change in pH = 0.03 X ((40 − PaCO 2)/10)

  9. Asthma-COPD overlap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma-COPD_overlap

    Asthma-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Overlap (ACO), also known as Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome (ACOS), is a chronic inflammatory, obstructive airway disease in which features of both asthma and COPD predominate.
