AECOPD patients with PHD had a more severe profile and worse clinical outcomes, including higher drug cost and longer LOS. PHD is an independent risk factor of drug cost and LOS. Complicated with PHD in COPD/AECOPD patients with PHD means heavier disease burden and worse prognosis. It merits further study to focus on PHD management in COPD/AECOPD patients.
