Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as a risk factor in primary care: a Canadian retrospective cohort study

Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex disease that is predicted to be the third most common cause of death by 2030. In Canada, the care and management of chronic conditions is largely provided by primary care providers. Although there is emerging research and initiatives...
