The Latest in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Diagnosis and Management
Workshop Outline COPD remains a chronic disease which is largely underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed. The disease is complex and often not actively managed in general practice. This Lung Foundation Australia (LFA) ALM aims to increase the knowledge, confidence and skills of general practitioners in the diagnosis and management of COPD. LFA in conjunction with the Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand, has developed resources to assist in the adoption of best practice, including the COPD Concise Guide for Primary Care which is based on the evidence based guidelines, ‘The COPD-X Plan’ www.copdx.org.au. COPD-X is a mnemonic for ‘Case finding and confirm diagnosis, Optimise function, Prevent deterioration, Develop a plan of care and manage eXacerbations’.
Learning objectives• Recognise the impact of COPD in the Australian community
• Identify patients at risk and confirm a diagnosis of COPD
• Explain effective non-pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy interventions for the management of COPD
