COPD; Roadside to Resus
The Resus Room
What's Going on With the Exacerbation of COPD?
COPD is actually just an exacerbation of the sort of existing situation. So more airway inflammation, more mucus and worsened bronchoconstriction to top it all off we get some airway edema.

If we really don't intervene potentially death. It's not a great picture.
