Purpose: To review the evidence and provide clinical recommendations for the management of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: This guideline is based on a systematic review of randomized controlled trials from database inception to January 2, 2019. The target audience for the guideline includes all primary care clinicians, and the target patient population includes adults who are experiencing acute exacerbations of COPD. This guideline was developed using a modified version of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system, a transparent approach to evaluating the certainty of the evidence and determining the strength of recommendations. Recommendation 1: The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) recommends that clinicians prescribe antibiotics for adults with acute exacerbations of COPD to improve clinical cure and reduce clinical failure (weak recommendation, moderate quality of evidence). Choice of antibiotic should be based on patient preferences and history because there is insufficient evidence to support a preferential recommendation. Recommendation 2: The AAFP recommends that clinicians prescribe corticosteroids for adults with acute exacerbations of COPD to reduce clinical failure (weak recommendation, low quality of evidence). There is insufficient evidence to guide the dose, route of administration, or duration of treatment. Good Practice Point: Short-acting bronchodilators ...

1. Symptom vs. diagnosis. With the exception of streptococcal pharyngitis and tonsillitis, a specific infectious agent causing a disease is rarely identified at the time of the initial visit. ICD-10 allows you to report signs or symptoms (R00-R99) when you have not yet established or confirmed a related definitive diagnosis; however, sometimes what seems like a sign or symptom might actually be considered a diagnosis in ICD-10. Take “sore throat” for example. Code R07.0, “Pain in throat,” specifically excludes “sore throat (acute),” but J02.9, “Acute pharyngitis, unspecified,” specifically includes “sore throat (acute).” Therefore, it appears that ICD-10 considers “sore throat” to be a definitive diagnosis rather than a symptom. 2. Acute vs. acute recurrent. In ICD-9, codes were divided into “acute” and “chronic” conditions. In ICD-10, there is the additional classification of “acute recurrent.” In the absence of specific definitions, you must use your judgment to determine the time frame between episodes that would qualify a condition as “acute recurrent.” Your documentation will need to support whichever classification you use. 3. Inflammation vs. infection. Although the suffix “itis” references inflammation, the conditions pharyngitis, tonsillitis, sinusitis, etc., are all subcategories under “Acute upper respiratory infections” (J00-J06) in ICD-10. So, when you see an inflammation that is not from an infection, you need to look for a more specific code. 4. Multiple sit...
