Enfermedad Pulmonar Obstructiva Crónica y comorbilidad

Abstract

Resumen Introducción. La enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) es una de las patologías que mayores tasas de prevalencia y mortalidad presenta a nivel mundial, en España representa la 3ª causa de muerte. El tabaco es su principal causa, por lo que es una enfermedad prevenible. Se define como un síndrome complejo y heterogéneo que condiciona tanto calidad de vida como envejecimiento de los que la padecen, especialmente en las últimas décadas de la vida ya que se acompaña de un número de comorbilidades que agravan la propia evolución de la enfermedad. Objetivos. Conocer las comorbilidades más prevalentes en la EPOC, así como su relación y posible influencia en el progreso de esta. Material y métodos. Búsqueda bibliográfica en Pubmed y Crochrane haciendo uso de los términos "chronic obstructive pulmonary disease" AND "comorbidities", aplicando diferentes filtros durante la misma. Resultados. La presencia de comorbilidad en los pacientes con EPOC afecta a la mortalidad a largo y corto plazo. Según la bibliografía resultante la relación existente entre comorbilidad y EPOC puede explicarse por la existencia de inflamación sistémica. Discusión. Hay evidencias suficientes para afirmar que la presencia de comorbilidad es un hecho desfavorable en cuanto a evolución del paciente con EPOC.
