Summary

This study aims to assess the clinical presentation, radiological patterns and outcome of COVID-19 infection in patients with chronic pulmonary disease. Inter-relationship between the severity of COVID-19 infection and chronic pulmonary diseases.

Detailed description

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to many difficulties with the diagnosis and routine management of chronic pulmonary diseases such as COPD, Bronchial asthma, ILD and Bronchiectasis as well as raising concerns about the management and outcomes for patients with these diseases who develop COVID-19. Although there is conflicting evidence on whether patients with chronic respiratory diseases are more susceptible to COVID-19, these patients exhibit a more severe presentation and higher mortality compared with those without chronic respiratory diseases.
