Abstract
Acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) are important events in the course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD), and its diagnosis, treatment and prevention are the focus of disease management. Optimizing the peri-discharge management of AECOPD will help to improve continuity of care, prevent recurrence of acute events in the short time, and improve long-term prognosis. In recent years, evidence on the peri-discharge period and the cluster management of AECOPD has accumulated, and confirming the benefit of early follow-up and management after discharge. By reviewing the available evidence, this guideline aims to standardize discharge management and follow-up pathways for AECOPD patients. This guideline is intended for physicians and nursing staff involved in the clinical practice of COPD.
