[Treatment of stabilized chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].
Treatment of stabilized chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is intended to decrease consequences activated by causes, such as inhalation of deleterious particles and gases especially from polluted air and cigarette smoking. From this reason treatment must include an effort to eliminate the cause. Respective treatment includes drug administration, rehabilitation, long term oxygen therapy in home environment, noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV), and sometimes surgical procedures. Every treatment should be accompanied with an education of a patient and people in his/her surrounding.
