Evolution of Peak Inspiratory Flow During Hospitalization of Patients with COPD – A Prospective Monocentric Observational Study
Hospitalized patients with COPD experienced a significant increase in PIF during their stay. These results appear to be independent of the reason for hospitalization but need to be confirmed with a larger sample. Nevertheless, these findings underscore the importance of regular PIF assessment and influence inhaler selection.
