今週は禁煙週間に合わせてCOPDについて解説している。COPDは慢性閉塞性肺疾患の略称で、ほとんどの場合が長期喫煙に起因する病気である。主な症状は呼吸困難、咳、痰の増加など。喘息とは全く別の病気だが、混同されることもある。
COPDの原因は肺胞の破壊により肺機能が低下することで、ガス交換ができなくなることが特徴。医療機関の受診、呼吸機能検査、レントゲンやCT検査などが診断に重要。治療は禁煙、栄養管理、運動、呼吸訓練などが中心で、重症化を防ぐことが大切。
COPDは気管喘息とは異なる病気で、禁煙後もリスクが残るため注意が必要。また、診断されていない患者が多く、死亡原因の第3位にもなっている深刻な状況にある。認知度向上のための啓発動画などの取り組みも紹介されている。
以上のように、COPDは比較的知られていない病気ながら深刻な状況にあり、番組では視聴者への理解促進と予防・早期発見の重要性を訴えかけている。

Optimal Health Weekly PodcastDon't Let COPD Take Your Breath Away: Prevention and New Regenerative Treatment Options with Stem CellsThe episode of Optimal Health Weekly we discuss Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, a lung disease that can cause breathing difficulties. It is a progressive disease that worsens over time, and it can be caused by factors such as smoking or exposure to air pollution. The podcast covers the symptoms, diagnosis, and new treatment options for COPD, using stem cells, oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehabilitation. It also highlights the importance of early detection and smoking cessation in managing COPD.

In particular, we discuss a revision to the GOLD group classification system and the preferred initial therapies in patients with COPD. Key Concepts The newest GOLD COPD guidelines now recognize three GOLD groups – "A", "B", and "E". Group "E" (formerly groups C and D) are patients with frequent exacerbations (defined as 2 or more in the past 12 months or 1 exacerbation requiring hospitalization). For group "E" patients, the preferred initial inhaler regimen is a LABA+LAMA. Triple therapy (LABA+LAMA+ICS) can be considered if bl...

Clinical ConversationsPodcast 298: COPD exacerbations — 7 days of antibiotics versus 2A VIDEO RECORDING OF THIS INTERVIEW WILL BE AVAILABLE WITHIN A FEW DAYS.
[display podcast]
In treating most exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) the usual regimen consists of prednisone plus 5- to 7-days of antibiotics. But what if a shorter course of antibiotic therapy would do? That would be both convenient for patients and less likely to promote antibiotic resistance.
A recent paper in Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease describes just such a strategy: patients received prednisone plus either 2 or 7 days of levofloxacin. There was no substantive difference in clinical results bet...

Real Health ChatsEpisode 9: COPDCOPD is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (also called chronic obstructive lung disease) It is the 4th leading cause of death in the US. Anatomy Lungs composed of airways that branch smaller and smaller like a tree and end in tiny air sacks called alveoli where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged. When we breathe, air moves in and out of our lungs, delivering oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide. COPD results in obstruction of this air flow. COPD has 2 categories, chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Chronic bronchitis is caused by inflammation, mucous production and stiffening of the airways. Common symptoms...
