Prediction of air trapping or pulmonary hyperinflation by forced spirometry in COPD patients: results from COSYCONET

Prediction of air trapping or pulmonary hyperinflation by forced spirometry in COPD patients: results from COSYCONET

Background Air trapping and lung hyperinflation are major determinants of prognosis and response to therapy in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
