    1. Seemungal et al. reported a 7-day prodrome prior to diagnosis ofexacerbation [6]. With this in mind, the use of respiratory RPM has thepotential to reduce COPD treatment delays leading to improved care.Increased respiratory rate has demonstrated predictive ability for ex-acerbations of COPD [7,8]. Shah et al. observed an increased respiratoryrate in the 5 days preceding hospitalization for COPD exacerbations,highlighting the window of opportunity for intervention [7].

      Detalles importantes:

      Seemungal determinó un periodo prodrómico de 7 días. Sin embargo, hay que recordar que las exacerbaciones tienen diferentes presentaciones.

      RR parece ser un predictor importante. Se eleva 5 días antes de la hospitalización
