根據(jù)慢性阻塞性肺疾病全球創(chuàng)議(GOLD)的定義,慢性阻塞性肺疾病急性加重(AECOPD)是“在COPD的自然病程中發(fā)生的事件,氣緊、咳嗽或/和咳痰等基礎(chǔ)癥狀加重超出正常的日間變異的范圍,急性發(fā)病,可能需要改變常規(guī)的治療”[1]。AECOPD意味著對(duì)醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生資源耗用的增加,如非預(yù)約的就醫(yī)、使用藥物增加,使用抗生素或口服皮質(zhì)激素甚至住院,等等。僅僅依據(jù)是否占用衛(wèi)生資源來定義AECOPD并不適當(dāng),這一點(diǎn)還要取決于醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生資源的可獲得性,同時(shí)有研究提示部分AECOPD可以是自限性的,特別是輕度急性加重。另一方面,占用醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生資源的形式可以大致評(píng)估AECOPD的嚴(yán)重程度,如需要增加常規(guī)的吸人性藥物常常意味著輕度AECOPD,需要短程口服抗生素或糖皮質(zhì)激素意味著中度AECOPD,而需要住院者多為重度AECOPD。AECOPD是導(dǎo)致COPD患者健康狀態(tài)降低乃至死亡的主要原因,也是耗用醫(yī)療衛(wèi)生資源從而構(gòu)成COPD疾病負(fù)擔(dān)的主要部分,需要采用有力的干預(yù)措施以降低其發(fā)生率[2]。
