DEFINITION OF COPD
• Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung
Disease (GOLD) 2015
▫ Preventable and treatable disease
Structural changes
Airflow Limitation in COPD : Narrowing of the small airways
Small Airways Diseases Parenchymal Destruction
• Airway inflammation • Loss alveolar
• Airway fibrosis, luminal plugs attachments
• Increased airway resistance • Decrease of elastic recoil

SYMPTOMS EXPOSURE TO RISK
FACTORS
shortness of breath
tobacco
chronic cough occupation
sputum indoor/outdoor pollution
There is only weak correlation between FEV1, symptoms, and impairement of a patient’s health quality of live. Within any given
cathegory, patient may have anything between relatively well preserved to very poor health status.

The small airways collapse during exhalation:
Impeding airflow
Trapping air in the lungs increase residual
volume
Reducing lung capacity

Small Airways in COPD
Inflammation:
Increase in CD8 cells, neutrophils,
and langerin-positive dendritic cells
in the walls of small airways
inflammatory response correlate
with degree of airflow obstruction
