Bronchodilator responsiveness in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: prevalence, significance, and clinical implications.

Current opinion in pulmonary medicine - 1 Mar 2025

Aggarwal Ashutosh N, Agarwal Ritesh

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Bronchodilator responsiveness (BDR) is often considered a key feature distinguishing asthma from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, recent evidence suggests that BDR alone may not be a reliable discriminator between these conditions. There is still no consensus on BDR definitions and testing protocols. Additionally, it remains unclear whether BDR is linked to a specific COPD...
