  • Description:
    Background: People with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) occasionally develop acute exacerbation of COPD-a potentially fatal condition. Psychological distress was associated with acute exacerbation of COPD. However, the evidence on the effect of psychological distress on acute exacerbation of COPD remains unclear. Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the influence of psychological distress on acute exacerbation of COPD and its consequences. Methods: The current review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines using three databases (PubMed, CINAHL, and PsyINFO) that were searched to identify relevant articles. Pooled risk ratios and 95% confidential interval were calculated from the included studies' data with random-effect methods to estimate the effect of psychological distress on acute exacerbation of COPD and its consequences. Results: Nineteen articles were included in the review. Most revealed that psychological distress was significantly associated with increased risk of acute exacerbation of COPD and its consequences. The meta-analyses showed that psychological distress increased risk of acute exacerbation of COPD, COPD-related hospitalization, and death. Conclusion: Psychological distress had negative effects on acute exacerbation of COPD and its consequences. The results of the meta-analyses show that persons with COPD and psychological distress had a greater risk of acute exacerbation of COPD, hospitalization, and death. [Description provided by NIOSH]
