Purpose: To identify clinical features and outcomes associated with pulmonary heart disease among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation (COPD), which may help reduce economic burden accrued over hospital stay and shorten length of stay (LOS). Patients and Methods: Totally, 4386 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) classified into pulmonary heart disease (PHD) group and non-pulmonary heart disease group, were included from the ACURE registry, a prospective multicenter patient registry study. Clinical features and outcomes were compared between groups. Results: PHD patients had a more severe profile, including having higher scores of COPD assessment test and modified British Medical Research Council, worse lung function, more patients hospitalized more than once in the past year due to acute exacerbation of COPD, and more comorbidities. Furthermore, drug cost was higher and length of stay was longer in AECOPD patients with PHD. Conclusion: AECOPD patients with PHD had a more severe profile and worse clinical outcomes, including higher drug cost and longer LOS. PHD is an independent risk factor of drug cost and LOS. Complicated with PHD in COPD/AECOPD patients with PHD means heavier disease burden and worse prognosis. It merits further study to focus on PHD management in COPD/AECOPD patients.
