Abstract

Objective: The study describes the clinical, paraclinical characteristics and rate of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations of patients at Hai Phong Lung Hospital. Subjects and methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study of 666 outpatients at Hai Phong Lung Hospital. Results: Patients in the age group of 60-79 years old accounted for a high proportion (76.43%), and patients with disease duration mainly from 1-5 years were 75.08%. Patients with an mMRC score of 2 accounted for the highest proportion of 38.74%, followed by mMRC score of 1, accounting for 32.43%. Patients with CAT score of 10 points or more accounted for the highest proportion of 67.57%. The proportion of patients with 50%≤FEV1≤80% accounted for 45.05%. In the past 12 months, the number of patients with 1 acute episode accounted for the highest proportion (67.87%). Among patients with acute episodes, 58.35% of patients had to be hospitalized. Conclusion: Patients have a high rate of hospitalization for acute episodes. From the research results, hospitals need to focus on preventive measures (vaccination, effective maintenance treatment, self-monitoring instructions) to reduce the number of acute episodes and avoid hospitalization.
