Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) imposes great burden on local acute medical services.
Major cause of morbidity
Third leading cause of death in 2020, WHO
Background
![Page 3: HA Convention 2012 SPP4](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071612/615701eca097e25c765004d0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Disease management consists of a group of coherent interventions designed to prevent or manage one or more chronic conditions using a systematic, multidisciplinary approach and potentially employing multiple treatment modalities. The goal of chronic disease management is to identify persons at risk for one or more chronic conditions, to promote self-management by patients and to address the illness or conditions with maximum clinical outcome, effectiveness and efficiency regardless of treatment settings or typical reimbursement patterns.

Through educating health behavior and patient empowerment on disease control, self-management interventions improve clinical outcomes of chronic diseases eg DM, CHF
Several systemic reviews have been published and all suggested some beneficial effect on health status of a disease management intervention in COPD patients. Firm conclusion pending

Fast-track follow-ups (within one week) in ambulatory day center to review new symptoms early or to replenish medications.
No pressure , no devaluation

Forty-three patients joined the program but five patients were excluded for complete illiteracy and lack of caregivers. Results were based on one year data in comparison to the pre-recruitment value.

Over half of the COPD AE (54%) resulted in hospital admission before intervention at baseline. After adoption of self management plan, only 20% of the COPD AE required hospitalization. (61.8% reduction in the probability of hospitalization for COPDAE).

Initiation of antibiotic/steroid therapy for COPD exacerbation according to action plans were adopted by 83.8% of patients.
Totally 80 courses of rescue medications
Most COPD exacerbations (86.25%) were settled by the rescue medication and self management strategy. Only 13.75% of these failed to respond to the antibiotic/steroid therapy.

There were 42 phone calls to our hotline for advice.
Fast track follow-up assessments were arranged for 25 patient-attendances and 96% of them had their problems settled as outpatient, leaving one clinical admission (4%) for pneumonia.
No midnight call has been received
No unreasonable fast-track clinic attendance

First get patient and family involved.
Enroll COPD patients into a pulmonary rehabilitation program Reduce barrier for exercises at home
home visits
tailor made home based exercise program
Reinforce self management strategy Symptom control strategy
Early recognition of COPD AE
Action plan : prompt initiation of therapy
Discussion : Prevention is better than cure
![Page 26: HA Convention 2012 SPP4](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071612/615701eca097e25c765004d0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Build up confidence: frequent follow-up under specialists care, thorough check-up of lung function and clinical symptoms
Reassure: the possibility to start treatment early, not having to call a doctor, clear written instruction and total autonomy
Reduce uncertainty: low barrier to seek help, easy access to health care workers who knew them well
Discussion : Prevention is better than cure
![Page 27: HA Convention 2012 SPP4](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071612/615701eca097e25c765004d0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Self management plan was highly effective in preventing hospital admissions and reducing the burden of COPD patients on acute medical services.

There were no data for admission to private hospitals – one patient admitted to a private hospital for DM control.
The number of episodes of COPD exacerbation were recalled by patients during each follow-up visit may not be accurate.
The number of episodes of COPD exacerbation in the past one year prior to recruitment recalled by patient may not be accurate.
Limitations of the study
