Abstract
|
|
|
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can have many concomitant cardiovascular diseases (CVD) because COPD and CVD share tobacco abuse as a risk factor. The common cardiovascular comorbidities include heart failure, coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, peripheral vascular disease and hypertension. Among them, coronary artery disease and heart failure were reviewed mainly in this article. CVD are very common in patient with COPD. Patients with COPD and cardiovascular comordidities usually have greater morbidity and mortality. A high index of suspicion for coexisting CVD should be maintained in all patients with COPD. CVD should be treated according to usual guidelines.
