prevention of exacerbations using pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions (e.g. pulmonary rehabilitation and strategies aimed at improving physical activity). The book’s originality lies in the fact that it covers AEs in various respiratory diseases, allowing comparisons between definitions, short- and long-term consequences, triggers and therapeutic management. As such, this book will serve as a complete and up-to-date reference that will raise awareness on the importance of exacerbations in patients with chronic lung diseases and will promote further research in this area.
