COPD: Differential Diagnosis Grant Hoekzema, MD Program Director, Mercy Family Medicine Residency, St. Louis, MO Elissa J. Palmer, MD, FAAFP Professor and Chair, Department of Family & Community Medicine, University of Nevada School of Medicine, Las Vegas, NV
Slide 2-

Educational Objectives At the end of this presentation, the learner should be able to … Describe constellation of symptoms and evaluation leading to consideration of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as diagnosis. Delineate modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Understand diagnostic criteria for COPD. Describe other diseases that need to be considered in the workup of a patient with dyspnea, chronic cough, and sputum production.

Differential Diagnosis Evaluation Risk Factors Diagnostic Criteria Other Conditions to Consider
Slide 4-

Evaluation Assessment of symptoms Severity of breathlessness, cough, sputum production, wheezing, chest tightness, weight loss or anorexia Change in alertness or mental status, fatigue, confusion, anxiety, dizziness, pallor or cyanosis COPD should be considered in any patient with a chronic cough, dyspnea or sputum production Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 5-

Evaluation Medical History Allergies Sinus problems Other respiratory disease Risk factors Exposures (occupational and environmental) Family history Co-morbidities that may affect activity Medications Prior hospitalizations or evaluation to date Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 6-

Evaluations Vital Signs Respiratory rate, pattern, effort Pulse oximetry Extremities Inspection for cyanosis Chest Inspection to assess AP diameter (barrel chest) Palpation and percussion of chest Lungs Auscultation for wheezing, crackles, and/or decreased breath sounds Stephens, 2008
Slide 7-

The differential diagnosis of COPD should be considered in patients who present with which of the following symptoms? Chronic cough Any sputum production Dyspnea Increased sputum production All of the above Question
Slide 8-

Differential Diagnoses Dewar, 2006 Non-pulmonary Congestive Heart Failure Hyperventilation syndrome/panic attacks Vocal cord dysfunction Obstructive sleep apnea – undiagnosed Aspergillosis Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Pulmonary Asthma Bronchogenic carcinoma Bronchiectasis Tuberculosis Cystic fibrosis Interstitial lung disease Bronchiolitis obliterans Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency Pleural effusion Pulmonary edema Recurrent aspiration Tracheobronchomalacia Recurrent pulmonary emboli Foreign body
Slide 9-

Question Which of the following is the most appropriate to use to confirm the diagnosis of COPD? Chest X-ray Arterial blood gas Spirometry High resolution CT scan of chest Clinical examination
Slide 10-

Evaluation Studies that may help in diagnosis: Chest X-ray (SOR: C) Spirometry (SOR: C) Arterial blood gas (SOR: C) Alpha-1 antitrypsin levels (SOR: C) High resolution CAT scan of chest (SOR: C) SOR: Strength of Recommendation Stephens, 2008
Slide 11-

Evaluation Spirometry Gold standard for diagnosis Standard to establish severity and stage Perform both pre- and post-bronchodilator Irreversible airflow limitation is the hallmark of COPD Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 12-

Risk Factors Smoking Major risk factor (duh!) Risk increases with number of pack years smoked Secondhand smoke in large amounts presents risk Environmental pollution Smog and exhaust from vehicles Smoke from burning wood or other biomass fuels Particulates in occupational dust
Slide 13-

Risk Factors Occupational Irritants
Slide 14-

Risk Factors Nonmodifiable Risk Factors Gender (Risk about equal in men and women) Attributed to smoking habits of both genders Age Develops slowly Most people ≥ 40 years old when symptoms start Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency Mostly Northern European heritage Rare cause (2% of COPD population) Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 15-

Risk Factors Additional risk factors Severe lung infections as a child Previous tuberculosis Gastroesophageal reflux disease Possible cause as recurrent irritant May worsen COPD Lower socioeconomic status Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 16-

Diagnostic Criteria Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) Criteria Program to provide guidelines for management of COPD; started 1998; international effort. Consider COPD in any patient with following: Dyspnea Chronic cough or sputum production and/or Exposure to risk factors Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 17-

Diagnostic Criteria GOLD Criteria (continued) Symptoms and risk factors are not diagnostic in themselves but should prompt spirometry in patients >40 yrs of age Diagnosis should be confirmed by pre- and post-bronchodilator spirometry Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 18-

Diagnostic Criteria Key Indicators Dyspnea Progressive, usually worse with exercise, persistent, described as increased effort to breathe Chronic cough May be intermittent, may be nonproductive Chronic sputum production Any pattern History of exposure to risk factors Tobacco smoke, occupational dust, chemicals, fumes or smoke from cooking or heating fuels Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 19-

Spirometry Classification for COPD Adapted from GOLD, 2009
Slide 20-

Differential Diagnoses Stephens, 2008 Pulmonary Asthma Bronchogenic carcinoma Bronchiectasis Tuberculosis Cystic fibrosis Interstitial lung disease Bronchiolitis obliterans Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency Pleural effusion Pulmonary edema Recurrent aspiration Tracheobronchomalacia Recurrent pulmonary emboli Foreign body Non-pulmonary Congestive heart failure Hyperventilation syndrome/panic attacks Vocal cord dysfunction Obstructive sleep apnea (undiagnosed) Aspergillosis Chronic fatigue syndrome
Slide 21-

Diagnostic Criteria Asthma Episodic symptoms of airflow obstruction or airway hyper-responsiveness Airflow obstruction partially reversible by spirometry Characterized by reversibility and variability in symptoms and airflow Alternative diagnosis excluded by history and exam Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) Report, 2009
Slide 22-

Diagnostic Criteria Asthma – Key indicators Cough, worse particularly at night Recurrent wheezing, chest tightness or difficulty breathing Wheezing on physical examination Symptoms that occur or worsen in presence of known triggers Symptoms that occur/worsen at night Adapted from NHLBI/NIH NAEP Guidelines, 2007
Slide 23-

Diagnostic Criteria Asthma – Spirometry Establishes diagnosis of asthma Perform when key indicators present Demonstrates obstruction and assesses for reversibility Reversibility defined as >12% increase in FEV1 from baseline NHLBI/NIH NAEP Guidelines, 2007
Slide 24-

Diagnostic Criteria Asthma – Similarities with COPD Major epidemiologic causes of chronic obstructive airway disease Involve underlying airway inflammation Can cause similar chronic respiratory symptoms and fixed airflow limitation Can co-exist with the other making diagnosis more difficult Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009 Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) Report, 2009
Slide 25-

Diagnostic Criteria Asthma – Differences from COPD Underlying immune mechanism of chronic inflammation different Age of onset Earlier in life with asthma Usually > age 40 in COPD Symptoms in asthma vary; COPD slowly progressive Smoking associated with COPD Asthma with reversible airflow limitation; irreversible airflow limitation in COPD Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2009
Slide 26-

Diagnostic Criteria Asthma – Using spirometry to differentiate from COPD Post-bronchodilator FEV1 <80% predicted together with FEV1/FVC <0.70 confirms airflow limitation that is not fully reversible Asthma may show similar changes in chronic and more severe cases; PFT’s may be needed to distinguish it from COPD NHLBI/NIH Asthma Guidelines , 2007

Key Points COPD is associated with several chronic respiratory symptoms that suggests its diagnosis Symptoms overlap with other conditions -- asthma in particular History, risk factors and progression of disease assist with diagnosis Spirometry, with and without bronchodilator, usually necessary to make diagnosis
