New Insights into the Pathophysiology of Mild Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Jordan A Guenette

“…Given their relatively well-preserved spirometry, some have argued that respiratory symptoms in patients with mild COPD are unlikely to be related to pulmonary function abnormalities and that early detection of COPD is a ‘waste of resources’. Despite this viewpoint, there is emerging clinical and physiological evidence of peripheral airway dysfunction, diminished quality of life and reduced physical activity levels, and increased mortality, hospitalizations, dyspnea and exercise intolerance in patients with mild COPD compared with healthy controls. …”
