Association of Patients’ Knowledge on the Disease and Its Management with Indicators of Disease Severity and Individual Characteristics in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): Results from COSYCONET 2
These findings suggest that part of the disease-related knowledge in patients with COPD was reinforced by the experience of exacerbations, especially knowledge regarding criteria on contacting a physician. These observations might help in focusing education on those parts of knowledge that are considered as important by patients based on their own experience.
