Abstract |
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been classically divided into blue bloaters and pink puffers. The utility of these clinical subtypes is unclear. However, the broader distinction between airway-predominant and emphysema-predominant COPD may be clinically relevant. Objectives: To define clinical features of emphysema-predominant and non-emphysematous COPD patients. |
