EHEALTH TOOLS FOR PRECISION MEDICINE IN COPD
ABOUT:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects the lives of 2.6 million Canadians. The current standards of COPD care largely fail to consider individual patient characteristics in formulating disease management strategies. Recognizing this gap, our group recently took a major initiative to develop a first-of-a-kind framework for individualized prediction of outcomes in COPD.
