Maximal Forced Inspiratory Flow Dynamics and Acute Exacerbation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients with Exacerbation History
Changes in FIFmax were not significantly associated with moderate-to-severe exacerbations, but were related to a reduced risk of severe exacerbations in COPD patients receiving inhaled therapy. These findings indicate that FIFmax may serve as a valuable prognostic marker for severe exacerbations in high-risk COPD patients.
