Abstract
|
|
|
|
Patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (hereafter referred to as bronchiectasis) often present with comorbidities. These comorbidities significantly impact symptoms, acute exacerbation, hospitalization, disease progression, and mortality in patients with bronchiectasis. Thus, accurate diagnosis and management of comorbidities associated with bronchiectasis are essential to reduce the disease burden of bronchiectasis. This review provides a state-of-the-art summary of key pulmonary and extra-pulmonary comorbidities associated with bronchiectasis, outlines clinical tools to quantify the prognosis of bronchiectasis, and suggests a workflow to diagnose and manage comorbidities associated with bronchiectasis.
