“…Early moderate-to-severe and severe exacerbations were measured at 30 days post index and were defined based on healthcare resource utilization, similar to previously published database studies [16,17]. A moderate-to-severe exacerbation was defined as the occurrence of either a hospitalization or an ED visit with a diagnosis for chronic bronchitis or COPD (ICD-9-CM: 491.xx, 492.xx, 496.xx).…”

“…COPD is an important cause of mortality and morbidity in the U.S. (Ford et al, 2013). Individuals with COPD also are likely to suffer from a variety of other chronic conditions, such as cardiovascular disease and cancer (Barr et al, 2009; Cazzola, Bettoncelli, Sessa, Cricelli, & Biscione, 2010; Divo et al, 2012; Feary, Rodrigues, Smith, Hubbard, & Gibson, 2010; Garcia-Olmos et al, 2013; John, Lange, Hoernig, Witt, & Anker, 2006; Lindberg, Larsson, Ronmark, & Lundback, 2011; Nazir & Erbland, 2009; Schnell et al, 2012; Sin & Man, 2005; Soriano, Visick, Muellerova, Payvandi, & Hansell, 2005). As COPD becomes increasingly more severe, impaired lung function and symptoms such as shortness of breath may impact an individual’s ability to perform basic activities.…”

Objectives To characterize the prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among residential care facility (RCF) residents in the United States. To compare patterns of hospital visits and comorbidities to residents without COPD. Methods Resident data from the 2010 National Survey of Residential Care Facilities were analyzed. Medical history and information on past-year hospital visits for 8,089 adult residents were obtained from interviews with RCF staff. Results COPD prevalence was 12.4%. Compared to residents without COPD, emergency department visits or overnight hospital stays in previous year were more prevalent (p<0.05) among residents with COPD. <3% of residents with COPD had no comorbidities. Arthritis, depression, congestive heart failure, diabetes, coronary heart disease, and asthma were more common (p<0.05) among residents with COPD than those without COPD, but Alzheimer’s disease was less common. Discussion COPD is associated with more emergency department visits, hospital stays, and comorbidities among RCF residents.

“…Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by dyspnea (breathlessness), coughing, the production of sputum, and often irreversible impairment in lung functioning and has significant implications for both morbidity and mortality [1–2]. In the United States, COPD mortality rates doubled between 1970 and 2002 and of the five leading causes of death, only COPD has shown mortality increases since 1970 [3].…”

Objective This study examined the contribution of perceived social support to the presence of anxiety in persons with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Methods A cross-sectional survey sample of 452 persons with COPD (61.3% female; 53.5% older than 65; 70.8% without a college degree or higher educational achievement, and 54.8% with household income of $40,000 or less) completed a telephone survey. Measures included the Anxiety subscale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A), 5 social support subscales from the Positive and Negative Social Exchanges (PANSE) Scale, a COPD Severity Score (CSS; a weighted algorithmic combination of symptoms and the need for various COPD medical interventions), and the Geriatric Depression Scale, Short Form (GDS-SF). Zero order correlations and a series of multiple regression analyses were calculated. Results Multiple regression analysis revealed that the receipt of instrumental support, feeling let down by the failure of others to provide needed help, and unsympathetic or insensitive behavior from others each positively predicted a higher level of patient anxiety in COPD patients, after controlling for demographic variables, smoking status, comorbid depression (GDS) and severity of illness (CSS). Additionally, the control variable of depression was the strongest predictor of anxiety, suggesting a high degree of co-morbidity in this sample. Conclusion Anxiety and depression are serious co-morbid mental health concerns for persons with COPD. It is important to examine both positive and negative aspects of perceived social support for COPD patients and how they may impact or interact with these mental health concerns.
