Course overview
The condition known as COPD has been associated with considerable confusion and disagreement among healthcare professionals. Even defining the term has been somewhat controversial much less determining how to diagnose and manage the condition. Given the relative confusion and disagreement among healthcare professionals regarding the topic of COPD, it was a historic breakthrough that on April 4, 2001, the medical world was greeted with the following important news release: International Guidelines Released on Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD) Fourth Leading Cause of Death in US and Worldwide.
