Cardiovascular diseases are the most important comorbidity in patients with COPD with important prognostic imapact.

Most frequent comorbiditx were cardiovascular disease (62% - 40% arterial hypertension, 30% heart failure, 20% atrial fibrilation). 62% of patients weredischarged with three or more drugs; 3% had no regular drugs. In 15% of patients ICSs were overprescribed and 4% of patient in GOLD I(I-IV had no regular bronchodilator treatment. Prescription rates of LABAs, tiotropium and ICS increased over the disease continuum (p>0.0001). Beta blockers were underprescribed in patients with heart failure and ischemic heart disease (6% and 16%). Abstract truncated at 2000 characters.
