305 Ch 304. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
COPD = 慢性、進行性、可治療但不可逆 airflow limitation;emphysema (肺氣腫 + alveolar destruction) + chronic bronchitis (慢性支氣管炎 + mucus hypersecretion) 兩大病理;smoking 是 #1 cause(global 90%+),but air pollution + occupational + genetic (α1-antitrypsin deficiency, AAT) 也重要;diagnosis:post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC < 0.7;GOLD 2024-2025 stratification: ABE (A/B/E based on symptoms + exacerbation history);treatment:(1) bronchodilator (LABA + LAMA combo first-line for symptomatic);(2) ICS 用於 eosinophilic phenotype + frequent exacerbations;(3) triple therapy (ICS + LABA + LAMA) in ETHOS, IMPACT, KRONOS, TRINITY;(4) biologics emerging: dupilumab (BOREAS, NOTUS 2024) for eosinophilic COPD — game-changer;(5) mepolizumab (MATINEE 2024) also positive in eosinophilic COPD;(6) azithromycin chronic for frequent exacerbations;(7) roflumilast for severe with chronic bronchitis phenotype;(8) smoking cessation is single best intervention;acute exacerbation:SABA-SAMA + steroids + antibiotics + NIV;lung transplant for end-stage;lung volume reduction (surgical or endobronchial valves) for emphysema-dominant。
