Öz

Kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığının alevlenme periyodu, stabil dönemdeki hastalık bulgularından farklı olarak akut gelişen yakınmalarla karakterizedir. Bu dönemde hastaların en önemli yakınmaları, akut veya subakut bir zaman diliminde artan nefes darlığı, öksürük, balgam miktarı ve balgam pürülansıdır. Bu makalede KOAH alevlenmesinde yer alan etyolojik faktörler ve alevlenmenin hasta ve toplum sağlığı üzerine olan etkileri tartışılacaktır.,
