This episode takes us back to the basics of COPD pathophysiology and treatment. Dr. Dickson and Dr. Patrick start with the differential diagnosis of wheezing and move through the escalating COPD treatment options. We then close with a review of common abnormal breath sounds and set the stage for COPD Part 2 which will be coming soon.
