This study follows 1000 adults hospitalized for a sudden worsening of COPD (a lung disease). Researchers will collect medical data and biological samples over time to better understand these flare-ups. The goal is to improve future prevention and treatment, not to test a new drug.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly benefit participants. Results may take years to influence care.
