چکیده
Comorbidities contribute significantly to the individual burden of disease in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Their assessment is considered essential for COPD management and is frequently based on data from patients’ charts [1]. However, comorbidities are often undiagnosed [2]. Hence, a mismatch between chart-based and objectively identified comorbidities could be anticipated.

Background : Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) represents a major public health problem. The course of COPD is characterized by episodic periods of worsening symptoms, termed exacerbations. Supplemental oxygen should be given to patients with COPD exacerbation without causing CO2 retention. Arterial blood gas sampling is the gold standard for monitoring adequate oxygenation and for...
